The Queen Sells Out

Queen Elizabeth II of England has sold out her country, heritage, and faith.

On Saturday, September 30, Her Majesty designated an office in Windsor Castle for use as a prayer room for Muslims during the "holy" month of Ramadan. Such a room also exists in Buckingham Palace. The prayer room at Windsor Castle was set up at the request of a 19-year-old Muslim girl, Nagina Chaudry, who works in the Castle's visitors' shop. Miss Chaudry said it was "great knowing that [the Queen] respects other people's faith" and that she was thrilled that "[the Queen] is going to such great lenghts for me." Somebody get me a barf bag, please!

For all those who don't know, Queen Elizabeth II is the head of the Church of England and Defender of the Faith, i.e, Christianity. To allow a Muslim prayer room in any of her castles during this time of resurgent Muslim aggression against the West is a betrayal of her duty as monarch of a Western and Christian nation. I know the British sovereign is supposed to be above politics, but even an apolitical figurehead still has a duty to act with principle. I can't imagine the Queen's parents, King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, allowing a room in Windsor Castle or Buckingham Palace to be used for Nazi ceremonies during WWII. Yet today, 60 years later, their daughter is caving to political correctness and multiculturalism when what her subjects need most is a monarch with the conviction to stand for Christian Britain.

I don't know what Queen Elizabeth II thinks Britain will get out of her capitulation. Sure, Miss Chaudry may be grateful, but will this gesture change the mind of Osama bin Ladin? Will it change the minds of Hamas, Hezboallah, or Islamic Jihad? Will any radical Muslim cleric tell his mosque mates that, because of the prayer rooms in Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace, Britain is a friend of Islam and no longer a legitimate target for their holy war? HELL NO!!!!!!!!!! The jihadis will interpret this latest retreat by a Western leader the way they interpret all such retreats: as a sign of weakness. They will be further convinced that they are winning this war and will be emboldened to keep fighting until the call of the minaret is the only religion on British soil.

The next time some Muslim employee asks the Queen to respect her religion, I hope Her Majesty will have the courage to say that she'll make Islamic prayer rooms in her castles as soon as Muslim monarchs start making Christian prayer rooms in theirs. After all, respect should be a two-way street. That's how we do it in the West.

God save the Queen.
