Muslims must integrate

The chairman of London's City Circle recently made the statement below, which I think is excellent: "The idea that Muslims need to rally under a Muslim banner on all issues has had its day. The idea that there needs to be a ‘Muslim’ viewpoint or a ‘Muslim’ response to every issue under the sun is simply nonsensical. If Muslims are concerned with foreign policy they should go join Amnesty International, if they have an issue with civil liberties they should go join Liberty. These are professional organisations, amongst many other mainstream bodies, that understand how the law works. Muslims should join mainstream bodies as fellow citizens, not just as Muslims."
