Ides of March

From the BBC:
The Army is hosting its first recruitment drive solely for young British Muslims.
That's the way to handle an unassimilated Muslim population that acts as a hiding place for Jihadists; give them guns and military training through a no-infidels need appply recruiting drive with the object of "promoting diversity" rather than destroying the enemy. The BBC doesn't even bother to bring up the diversity arguement, but merely makes a passing reference to recruiting shortfalls and the campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan without mentioning the tiny little detail of who it is we're fighting and why this might explain why only 40 teenagers (at least they didn't call them "youths") have responded.

Will someone please remind the government that this sort of boneheaded PR drive doesn't work unless it's set up along the lines of the 442nd or how the Roman's deployed provincial recruits?
