- For example, the British government stipulates this requirement with
typical British indirection: “If the MP wishes to swear on a sacred text
[...] those books which may not be handled by non-believers are kept in
slip-cases” (omitting to say that it is only with Islam that this is a
requirement). http://www.parliament.uk/about/how/elections-and-
voting/swearingin/. Even in Guantanamo Bay the guards dealing with the
Muslim terrorists were made to wear gloves when they handled the
Koran (see Mark Steyn, America Alone, Washington, 2006, p.xxvii).
This kind of behaviour confirms to even Muslim criminals that
governments confirm that non-Muslims guarding Muslim criminals are
essentially inferior to the criminals. ↵
