Chelsea's Muslim star Nicholas Anelka attacks French racism


LM has written about Chelsea's Muslim star Nicholas Anelka highlighting his views on Islam and why he reverted.

The bad boy of French football has got into hot water again with a stinging attack on the French who he accuses of raising the issue of religion and Islam when France lose but staying silent about issues of faith when France won the World cup largely as a result of great French Muslim players like Zidane.

Anelka raises an important point about why he refused to sing the French national anthem because of the way he and fellow Muslims were treated. Given how Muslims and black footballers are treated in England one does wonder why we sing "God Save the Queen", after all what's so special about Liz and her dysfunctional family whose only claim to fame seems to be indulging in Gin before 5pm and slagging off foreginers which is ironic given their German heritage.
