Many on the left are criticizing Governor Bobby Jindal for falsely claiming the existence of no-go zones in the UK. Well.... As usual, theyre wrong. Unequivocally wrong. This is the sort of ill-informed fantasy that plays well in certain right-wing circles. This probably works for Jindal back home in Louisiana. Oddly enough, Fox News got into trouble recently on the no-go zone nonsense, too, as when Steve Emerson, a so-called terrorism expert, explained to the American masses that Birmingham, a major British urban center, was populated entirely by Muslims and that non-Muslims just simply dont go in. --Jay Parini, Middlebury College (published on CNN) cnn/2015/01/19/opinion/parini-jindal-comments-muslims/
