Bill, as far as I know, none of those arrested this time, or indeed previously, have any background at all with the Ugandan Asians. The UA's represent a relatively small prortion of the muslim population of the UK, and most of them have become sucessful in business and the professions. Certainly as far as I know UA's do not make up the disaffected segment of the community to whom you refer in your post.
Having said that, I've decided I've totally had enough of all religion. It's such a load of codswallop in my opinion. I'm not saying it can't teach us something but all that nonsense about heaven and hell and a greater being watching over us. The whole thing is an artifice, all built on a lie. I find myself reaching for "The Thirst for Annihilation" by Nick Land, the great writer-philosopher, who makes some interesting comments on religion-
"I have not been a theist for a single second of my life. In my first assemblies at primary school, when the theistic idiocy was first wheeled out, I remember thinking: it is natural that adults should lie to you, but is it really necessary for them to insult the intelligence quite this much? As for the longing to believe, nothing is more alien to me, because nothing is more obvious than the fact that humanity - far from being a creation - is a disease. Why should the absence of a divinity analogical to mankind be more disturbing than the absence of a giant tortoise supporting the world on its back? If pressed, I would be forced to argue that the latter belief offers more consolation, adds greater richness to cosmology, exhibits greater intellectual sophistication. Monotheists are like those dull and uninspired children who compel you to patronise them. In the end, one has to ignore them, one cannot stoop far enough to argue, after all, if they are capable of believing such things, what are they not capable of believing?"
