Egypt: Applause for Rowan Williams

Cathcon translation of Ägypten: Beifall für Rowan Williams

The Islamic University of Cairo has welcomed statements made by the Anglican Primate on sharia law. Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams had judged that it was "inevitable", parts of Islamic law would be applied in the UK. That is according to the University of al-Azhar an important contribution to interfaith dialogue. Williams speech – which was in Europe criticised by many - goes "in the right direction".

Cathcon- chances of Coptic Christians backing Rowan Williams are err.....zero.
