Dear MCB,
You must be very happy about the ruling and as a Jew I understand how important such issues are especially in today's society where tradition and modesty is very often misinterpreted or looked down upon as some old fashioned outdated idea.
Anyway with this story and other related ones in the news I had an idea where the Muslim community could express themselves in an even greater way in promoting the true meaning of Islam.
If the MCB could start a campaign for Muslims by wearing a green bow or ribbon that represents their disassociation of the terrorists who are killing many fellow Muslims as well as others in the name of Islam, as these terrorists have caused this current Islam phobia that has caused many people to equated many Muslims as terrorist suspects.
The Muslim community would be doing a great justice to itself by making this stand and not allow any more such groups from high jacking Islam who through their actions have made Islam be perceived as a religion of fear, violence and intolerance.
The ribbons could bear the Message ''not in our name'' or '' not in the name of Islam'' referring to so called Islamic terrorist groups who claim wrongly to be acting as Muslims and on behalf of Islam.
The pins/ribbons could be bought and the proceeds given to victims of terror or similar charities, this could be a great opportunity to allow a voice to the vast majority of Muslims to be heard and to show every one that they are nothing to do with, or connected to, and disassociate themselves with terror and support peace.
With what is going on in the Middle East at the moment there is allot of positive things that need all of our support this is one more step to achieve such things. as every little step is closer to what we all aspire to.
Shalom and salaam

As a non Muslim Englishman I support entirely the right of all religions to be respected and understand and agree with your comments on the Shabina Begum decision.
However your report was limited. As a person who works with children, including Muslims, for the very first time this caused heated discussion within our mixed religious group, with the Muslim children expressing views similar to those I give below.
The behaviour of the "touchy feely" male on television whose attentions were accepted,even apparently welcomed, by Miss Begum were in direct contradiction to her wishes to "protect women" in the broadest sense by the wearing of a jilbab.
Her "political speech" had little do with her religious feelings but seemed to be designed to pour scorn and anger at her perception of the attitudes of her fellow citizens to Muslim people. This "political speech" was clearly influenced by other "advisers" trying to cause friction between Muslims and the rest of the nation.
I am disappointed that you gave unreserved support for the courts decision but made no comment about the need for us all to work and live together without acrimony.
This school had taken every step to respect the rules and guidance of the Muslim religion even to seeking advice from the elders. This country is tolerant to an extreme.
For the first time in my life I felt anger about Muslim attitudes and the intolerance and bigotry displayed against British non Muslims.
I had to remind myself that this is a minority Muslim view. I just wish that you would be brave enough to point this out in your statements.
I don't suppose that you will reply or print these comments

Enjoy your Jilbab "victory" while you can. Your filthy religion and it's followers won't last.

As a member of the increasingly downtrodden and derided 'Majority Community' of this country, I have to tell you that today's ruling regarding the Muslim gown fills me with utter dismay.
Being specific for a moment, the notion that school uniform is just that - uniform, has been a part of British education for decades. It affords the wearer, whatever their background, rich or poor, white or black, Christian or Atheist, the ability to mix freely without prejudice. Secondly, school uniform promotes a sense of belonging, gives a school outward identity and crucially, helps to enforce school discipline i.e the individual cannot just do as they like but, must conform to the school rules and terms of behaviour.
This case has shattered those tried and tested reasons and the floodgates will now open for anyone to contest the wearing of school uniform on religious or personal grounds. What next, jeans, baseball caps, Jewish skull caps, dyed hair, offensive T-shirts; the list is endless. It won't just stop with religious garments believe me.
Broadening the debate for a moment. The fundamental and underlying problem with ethnic minorities in the UK and in particular, the Muslim 'Community' is you never seem to stop and ponder a. why our laws and customs are what they are or how they came to be like they are or b. what it is you can do to assimilate to 'our' way of life; you appear to always want this and that changed to accommodate your culture and religion and like the soft sods we are we give in to your ever increasing demands. Fairly soon I fear, the majority culture of this country will become so diluted as to almost cease to exist.
It appears to me, that minorities such as yourselves are implementing a carefully conceived plan to gradually erode the majority culture and as a result for instance, ALL women will be required to dress modestly and be the inferior of men and more worryingly, all laws and customs will have to brought in line to accommodate religious beliefs at the expense of Common Law which has evolved over the centuries. Therein lies the irony of course, British Law will itself be exploited by groups such as yourselves until it becomes redundant.
I question your allegiance to this country because and correct me if I'm wrong, your 1st loyalty lies with your God and not to the Head of State and in turn to the country. I fear there will be turbulent times ahead in this small, overcrowded little island, if people like yourselves don't stop forcing your beliefs and customs on the majority and try instead to integrate both in mind and in body.
Finally, I might surprise you when I say that I AM open to persuasion and the other person's point of view. Therefore, if you were to suggest I read any Islamic material or meet with some of your community representatives, I would consider it very carefully.
Regards

I have just come past grosvenor square and was met by a horde of screaming soppy muslims hollering and shouting outside the UNITED STATES Embassy.

Some of allahs little arseholes wanted to bomb the USA
They might well be advised not to shout too loud about bombing the USA - perhaps the Americans might start shouting "Nuke all muslim countries" and perhaps "allahs arseholes" should remember that this country is the USA's biggest ally and if they don't like then I'm sure they know what to do - piss off out of it and take their stupid book of fiction with them. My old man spent 4 years in a german prisoner of war camp before escaping after haviing to walk the length of Yugoslavia - as far as I am concerned the muslim faith, the koran and all of you who have "invaded" this country are desecrating his memory and thousands of indigenous soldiers like him. On his behalf take your koran and shove it up your arse.

"Led by a man on a megaphone, they chanted, "USA watch your back, Osama is coming back" and "Kill, kill USA, kill, kill George Bush". A small detail of police watched as they shouted: "Bomb, bomb New York" and "George Bush, you will pay, with your blood, with your head." "The protest was organised by groups including the Muslim Council for Britain and the Muslim Parliamentary Association of the UK." Where's the apologies from Muslims concerning Saudi Arabia conficasting Bibles from passengers arriving into their country and shredding them? More than one gets you 70 lashes or possible execution? Oh, that's right, you're such a tolerant and peaceful religion! And that's one sorry example.
I see right through you bastards! Kill the US, eh? Fuck YOU and DEATH TO EXTREMIST MUSLIMS EVERYWHERE! And get the hell out of Britain!
GO to HELL mother********! You want a WORLD WIDE WAR??? YOU GOT IT! SEE YOU ON THE BATTLEFIELD ASSHOLES!

Hmm let’s see. Piss Christ exhibit (crucifix in urine.) Josephs tomb destroyed in Hebron. Rabbi killed defending Torah. Babiyan Budda blown up in Afghanistan. Horrible riots follow, right? Wrong. Quaran flushed down the toilet. (Apparently false story) riots, 16 dead, 100+ injured. Beheadings, prison for having a bible in S’audi Arabia etc.
Islam is a primitive religion. It is a little Christianity, Judaism, Zoroastriaism and lest we forget abit of shamanism (gotta march around the meteor.) First you want to kill the Jews. Then the Chrisitans. Then the Buddists. Then the Hindus. Then ultimately Muslims will kill Muslims.
Islam is a primitive religion. It stands where Christianity stood 800 years ago. It is a religion without a shepherd. While Osama squats and shits in bushes (his time is near) don’t you think if aroused to a certain degree that the west will destroy you?
Islam isn’t the creator or purveyor of anything in the world. It is a leech. It is not God’s religion. Sooner or later we won’t need your oil. Then what? You can spend your time doing what you do best. Sodomizing each other ala Turk.

From the American people I say piss on the crayon (qur'an) All American's
that I know hate you because you burned our flag and show no respect for anyone. Tonight we will bury the Qur'an in a pit full of pig fat.

Organizing a protest in London, chanting "desecrate today, another 9/11 tomorrow"....."kill, kill USA, kill, kill George Bush" and so on.......is a slap in the face to your "so-called" peace loving religion. If you knew the facts of the Newsweek atricle and how the Democrats in this GREAT country of mine wants Muslims to hate the US, you would see that you are in the wrong.
But I would never expect that from an organization that supports terrorism and the low-lifes that bomb their own people daily, terrorists that are too scared to show their own faces, terrorists that don't have the balls to show their own faces. Cowards like these and the people who support them have no use to this planet. Keep chanting your bullshit....the US is watching and the US public is growing weary of us making you peons "angry" with putting underwear on Abu Ghraib prisoners heads, with "so-called" desecration of the Koran and showing Saddam Hussein in his underwear.....all along you KILL INNOCENT PEOPLE with beheadings. True believers of your religion would not act in this manner, the Muslim faith was not created for death, just interpreted that way by extremists.

To whom it may concern:
I just read a news article discussing the protests regarding the false Newsweek reports about the defacing of the Koran. In this report it mentioned that your organization sponsored the demonstrations as is your right in England-or the US for that matter. Question I have is would you have the right to demonstrate in virtually any Islamic country-the answer is no. I also read that the demonstrators chanted that they want another 911 in New York. Let me be clear-anyone who says that is offending the Koran-Islam at one time was the religon that kept mankind from the dark ages-now it propels us to the dark ages. If you believe in God-you should be ashamed. I pray for your souls that your ignorance is washed away.
Look into your twisted souls for your own redemption-and anyone who wishes death on the US can go to hell.
Thanks-have a nice day-Mr Bill
