When will Britain learn to protect children?
2014-09-01
[Iran Press TV] "Nobody could say, 'We didn't know.'" This was the devastatingly simple verdict of the independent inquiry into child sexual exploitation in Rotherham last week.

Yet even as hundreds of victims of sexual abuse have been denied the justice of seeing their rapists convicted for their crimes, police and council leaders have pleaded: "We didn't know."

The inquiry found there were ample opportunities for people who were in a position to prevent these vile crimes to grasp the extent of what was going on -- and to act. Whether they knew or they didn't (and the report suggests they should have done), they must acknowledge how seriously they failed the children of Rotherham and take appropriate responsibility.

#7  Its not "We didnt know" that's the issue, its the officials wayof thinking about Islam that matters: "We didnt want to know" is killing them - they are so blinded by leftists/prog mindset of treating people as victims groups that it would have shattered their world view to admit that evil exists, Islam is a major source of it, and it must be confronted and defeated.

#6  For the Left, there is no Britain*. So suck it up proles.

*or America, or Canada, etc. 1984 was suppose to be a warning, not a how-to manual.

#4  Interesting that this, the most morally-outraged critique, is coming out of Iran.

#3  BTW the same happened in Oxford (and a few other islam-infested areas).

The number of victims could be in the 10,000s!

#2  But it didn't happen in England, it happened in the islamic metastasis that sprung up.
