Great timing...

Recently, a few British papers came out with a story about a "Muslim scholar denied entry to U.S." after Customs officials found that "his answers to basic questions were not 'in alignment' with his background check or documentation."

Outraged about his case and two similar high profile cases that had made the press earlier, "A spokesman for the Muslim Council of Britain, Inayat Bunglawala, said: 'This is extremely worrying following on from the refusal of the US to admit Yusuf Islam and Tariq Ramadan. It seems the US has very little knowledge about British Muslims. These are all mainstream people who have no record of involvement in unlawful activities. They are stigmatising ordinary Muslims.'"

The timing of this statement is priceless: only eight days after what happened in the city of London? Hmmmm...
