Some academic lawyers see these alternative legal systems as an inevitable - and welcome - consequence of multiculturalism.Meanwhile, events on the other side of channel make one wonder is "welcome" is quite the word, as there are now 751 no-go areas in France that the police have effectively given over to the Jihadists.
What is frightening about all of this is that as an archaeologist I've seen exactly this sort of thing before with the Saxon invasion of Britain in the 5th century AD. At first, the Saxons came as settlers who caused little trouble aside from the odd pirate raid, but eventually as their numbers swelled they became less and less deferential toward their hosts and before the native Britons knew what they were about, the "immigrants" revealed themselves as invaders who plunged the land into decades of bloody warfare.
What is old is new, I suppose.
Update: The Telegraph reports that Faizul Aqtab Siddiqi, a barrister and principal of Hijaz College Islamic University, near Nuneaton, Warwicks predicts "that there would be a formal network of Muslim courts within a decade."
Translation: By 2016, sharia will be the firmly established in Britain.
