I deleted the original link you posted because I'd rather we didn't use this discussion to publicise such offensive things. Since nothing constructive is coming out of the discussion now, I'm closing comments. I think you’ve made your point, T Cell.

Probably not. This is probably mainly due to events of the past decade or so (domestic and international), but also because of the correct perception that associated with mosques are fanatics who are likely to be an offensive nuisance about the way women dress and so on.

Ziauddin Sardar, John M. Hobson and others have asserted that Europe's identity was founded, and indeed is integral to, the defining of the Islamic 'other'. Even Akbar Ahmed's widely read Postmodernism and Islam notes the local annual celebrations of defeat of Muslims in parts of Europe once ruled by Muslims, including Spain.
