#1 "Timebombs" is an appropriate word!

#2 Note that no one has defined for us what qualifies as inciting religious hatred. Who determines when expressing your view of another's religion trespasses into inciting hatred? Maybe it's like pornography-you know it when you see it?If courts get too zealous about this, we'll never see Islam be challenged to change into the "moderate" religion we CAN tolerate. How will this not insulate Islam from the legitimate criticism it so badly needs?

#3 lead to "time-bombs" of backlash and bitterness.

You're right, Jules, very broad definition and ill defined. It'd never pass muster in the States.
What I found amusing is the attitude of the Beeb--the "time-bombs" are only the fault of the Anglos, and it'll only be the Anglo's fault if they get killed by these "time-bombs" they've created by not being nice.

#4 This is ridiculous...it will only be used as a way to get people to shut-up about the truth of radical Islam being founded in the Quran and Muhammed's example.
If people feel like they cannot even talk about Islam w/o being thrown in jail or fined, and they feel radical Islam is gaining ground in their country, they will inevitably turn to underground groups.
Groups will form that will be against Islam, underground and radical, and will be against the government too.
This is a recipe for disaster.
