“It is very difficult to believe that it is England”.. say various people, men and women particularly whites on witnessing the horror of thuggery of far-rightist elite men who gave it the touch of anti-Muslim riots in South Ford of the country that has shaken the foundation of tolerance of that country.

Three little female kids that were murdered in a dancing school in South-Ford boiled the situation. Far-rightist movement had accused Muslims of the gruesome crime which kicked off their notorious game. Although the extremists received egg on their face when police nabbed the criminal who was not a Muslim.

Far-right activists like Anderson tate and William Thompson had till then incited Christians and atheists against Muslims who remain to be terrorized. Burning of mosques and properties belonging to Muslims has set in a new wave of Islamophobia in Europe that has badly exposed its tolerance towards the people of other faiths.

White people accepting Islam in large numbers translate it as the Civilization of Europe and its culture were not compatible any longer to their newly adopted faith and was true even with Arab Muslims. The centuries old culture and civilization of European people is turning tables on them and the real mistake lies in not understanding the need for its transformation rather remaining adhered to it.

This was actually the problem that gave vent to the far-rights groups. Even Christianity had foreign origin to Europe. But actually it was neither Christianity nor Islam to blame; it was simply intolerance and ruthless communalism.

There are several elements in the Governments in different European countries which are behind the rise of Far- right groups and are supported monetarily and morally to destroy the diversity of peaceful Europe. Migration of people into Europe only uplifts its economy.

The elements, particularly the far-right groups found guilty of ransacking and vandalizing properties are banned to enter Europian Union and USA lest their integrity, tolerance and diversity may be endangered. Banishing or ostracizing migrants from Europe will only add to its stagnation of societies and elimination of diversity, and consequent economic fall.

Great Britain has been rendered to little Britain by this one incident. It will take a long course  for the UK to not allow such communal carnage in future. However large pro migrant and anti- Islamophobia crowds thronging to roads is an example of keeping hopes alive.

Neither the faith of Islam will cease to spread nor Christianity will lose its name by repeating such horrorful events. The Muslims living in Europe and the US need to remain on a vigil and adhere to the law of the land.  The racist Islamophobic movements particularly against Muslims of Europe may increase in future. How would the world's most advanced nation like UK react to communal tensions taking place in Sri Lanka, Pakistan or India. The question pops up.
