The white community?
A few years ago in Huddersfield there was a case similar to the Rochdale one, where predominantly muslim men had been involved in a peadophile ring. It was centred around a taxi firm, who would befriend and then groom young girls, often vulnerable and damaged, into being ferried around and dropped of to perform sexual favours. The "client base" of nonces using this service came from all sections of the community though, I think they were predominantly white, although Huddersfield's a predominantly white town so I wouldn't read anything into that.
In that instance those men being taxi-drivers, and the opportunity that brings to set up some ring like this, played a way more important then their religious idenity. That was marginal, but it was a factor. It's a pretty tight community, making it more difficult for police and social services to be able to shut it down, and I suppose that comes from being a religious minority in a profession where racist assaults are routine and even murders take place.
I think there's a similarity to Rochdale, speaking to people from there about the recent grooming case, and I'm lucky that I've got some asian friends from Rochdale who've got a decent insight into it, in their words these guys were more likely to be found in the pub than the mosque on a friday night, none of them were actively religious. It isn't seen as socially acceptable in the muslim community to do this. They preyed on predominantly white girls, firstly out of sheer opportunism, because they're the people you're most likely to come into contact with if you're a taxi driver doing 1am-5am in a grim nothern town, and partly because targeting muslim kids would risk word getting around that community that this was going on, and risking the whole operation getting exposed. It wasn't based on some religious conviction or a cultural belief, shared by the whole community, that it's ok to abuse non-muslim women, but their own self-preservation.
Now, this is where some of the left groups you've criticised go into denial, and refuse to acknowlege religion and cultural issues played any role at all in this, but I still don't see how it leads to conclusion the whole muslim community was deliberately turning a blind eye, and passively condoning these crimes.
I don't think that's true at all, I've never bought this "lone wolves" shit about Catholic priests. Peadophilia was too systematic, too institutionally tolerated and lasted too long despite full knowledge it was going on, to be blithely written off as spate of lone wolves. They were in a position were they could abuse young people, just as a taxi driver who works 1am-5am in a provincial northern town might be, and so it was exploited. And I still wouldn't draw for that some of the conclusion you're prepared to make about Muslims.
I think you're on shaky ground here personally, trying ascribes to the motives of a small group of peadophiles to an entire religion. And I don't dispute for a moment that women are often held in low regard by some muslims either, or share the denial and naivety that some left-wingers have in talking about this.
