"A police force has apologised to Islamic leaders for the "offensive" postcard advertising a new non-emergency telephone number, which shows a six-month-old trainee police dog named Rebel. "
Muslims had complained in sufficient numbers to elicit an apology from the Police Service.
It is surely ridiculous to be apologising to people who understood our culture before they came here and then want concessions on a whole range of issues. The English love their dogs and it is us who should be offended when asked to remove them from publicity campaigns.
This is also a case of ignorance amongst Muslims. The Qur'an tells us that it is only the saliva of the dog that is 'unclean'.
Full story here.
Also Police sniffer dogs will have to wear bootees when searching the homes of Muslims so as not to cause offence and UK Police dogs are to receive Muslim sensitivity training.
It seems that Islamic groups in Britain are seeing exactly how far we are willing to go to appease them.
Even the banks are joining the Neville Chamberlain school of appeasement as they are banning piggy banks because they may offend some Muslims.
