That is why the Divide is now so strong.
No dear ... th divide is so strong because people on either side of it are stupid enough to think that they are the only ones who suffer. Because there are eejits who think that somehow being on one side or the other means that they are somehow special. Because there are people on both sides who think that they have the answer. Because on either side there are nincompoops who like keeping the divide in place by talking about the other side as if they are something utterly different when in fact on either side most people are just that. People like everyone else. |

Seems I was correct
Police are looking into that Dispatches Episode.
They would ,infact, do better using that as a Docu to help Police understand
Muslims better.
http://news.sky.com/skynews/article/0,,30100-1279163,00.html
They are also looking into another Docu by the same team
from the 1st month of this year.
Although the Police have not said and will not say
what the Problem is. |

| They'd do better investigating the outrageous claims of our own white nationalist bretheren. Talk about stirring it up. |

Well, it`s August, so we`ve got our new intake of hospital doctors, all equally new and strange to the town and our huge muddled barn of a hospital. Most of `em are Arab, Indian or African, and any of them could be a closet terrorist, or a future Consultant.
They are presently like lost babes in the woods, and it`s a kind of privilege, welcoming, breaking them in, and doing the ward hospitality thing (`There`s the drinks trolley, get your own. Chocs and biscuits and Pringles donated to ward staff at your disposal too, that little store-room next to the sluice.) Do we ask if they`re Muslim or Hindu or C of E first? No we bloody don`t, we make them welcome so we won`t feel so bad when we have to rant at them sometime in the next few months!!!! |

Do they dunk the biscuits? That is the question.
Is it not more noble to just sip from the saucer of human kindness? |

| The poor lambs last weekend just went for a paper cup of hot choc and the custard creams, knowing they needed the stuff and glad of it - while we nurses answered their bleeps and took a couple of their messages. Both Saturday and Sunday, these Newbies hadn`t accessed the canteen or had a proper break all day. They turned up on my ward looking `pale`, so Hospitality was offered. That`s how you begin to build a good working relationship with new doctors. If we can`t look after each other, what bloody use are we trying to look after patients? |

Fluffy - Have you seen Grey's Anatomy? The episode where one of the 'newbies' makes an absolutely fatal error by insulting the head nurse - cue 48 hours of absolute hell for him!
As to Muslim-only prisons - well, how about building one in the settlement of Weddel, below:

| WHY NOT USE THE iSLAND THAT WAS USED FOR "CASTAWAY"ITS OFF sCOTLAND,while we are at it why not just top em all?sorry for the flippancy but terrorists do have thier own misguided beliefs,and we should be trying to get them to understand where they have it wrong from our point of view where better than in a prison that has mixed faiths cultures etc;if a rapist goes to prison they have to watch thier backs from what I have been told by a chap who works at Lewes prison anyone with terrorist(((suspected)links also have to watch thier backs.So the terrorists are in terror of other inmates!!(what goes around comes around) |

Karma (I've been watching the 1st season of 'My Name is Earl' on DVD) - I bet your average burglar/armed robber/gbher would not be too happy to share a cell with someone who keeps calling him an 'unbeliever'.
Hi - Miriam. Summer hols are over so it's back to work. LA was good and Iceland was fab! |
