Restrictions During Ramadan

From this pdf file, dated May 4, 2007:

...In Brussels, the capital not only of Belgium but the adminstrative centre of the European Union, policemen have been enjoined by their superiors not to eat or drink anything during the day in the month of Ramadan while patrolling the predominantly Muslim area of the city, for fear of offending the population....But fear of what, exactly? Social disorder, perhaps, or fear of terrorist attack, or even of merely ideological criticism and the charge of being culturally sensitive and perhaps racist?...

Can't you just imagine the outcry if a similar enjoining had been propounded for the religious observances of any group other than Muslims?

I don't recall there ever being a similar push to force the restrictions of Ramadan upon the general population of non-Islamic nations.

Something is being tested right now. And little by little, the inroads of Islamification are being accomplished throughout the West.
