More on The Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali

When I blogged about The Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali's comments on the attempts being made to give Britain an increasingly Islamic character, I failed to explain why The Rt Rev Michael Nazir-Ali might be an expert in this field. The Bishop of Rochester lived for many years in Pakistan and so as Archbishop Cranmer says "he is fully aware of the religio-political strategy of marking out territory and then proclaiming it to belong to the Dar al-Islam, and that ‘people of a different race or faith face physical attack if they live or work in communities dominated by a strict Muslim ideology’."

So read the rest of Archbishop Cranmer's article, as perceptive and eloquent as ever.
