Britain wants to crack down on radical imams, but new antiterror laws
risk alienating moderate Muslims
By J.F.O. MCALLISTER / London
Posted Sunday, July 31, 2005; 14:24BST
No one's life, liberty or property are safe while the legislature is in
session." Mark Twain's old saw got a British twist last week after the
country started examining a dozen stern antiterror proposals Prime
Minister Tony Blair had announced before leaving for a sunshine break.
His plans include a new law to ban radical groups, extending pretrial
detention, and listing extremist centers and bookshops that will
trigger deportation for any foreigner "actively engaged" with them. The
measures made headlines in a country still absorbing the reality of
homegrown suicide bombers after the July 7 and July 21 terror attacks,
but not all the headlines were good. Some legal experts saw a slapdash,
populist quality in the proposals. And moderate Muslims, the group the
government needs to help weed out and isolate British radicals, are
uneasy about Blair's new strategy to curb those who preach jihad, not
just practice it.

Blair's been PM for too long, and I think the strain is showing with
this crackpot list, most of which won't get implemented. Time to make
Brown PM, and retire Tony to Tuscany or wherever he wants to go.
