WHAT does the Poppy stand for, it started it's life by symbolising those who fell in what is termed the Great War or World War I, it has gone on to symbolise and help us remember those lost in all wars and conflicts.
WHO does is represent, those that died in wars and conflicts fighting for this Country, those Countries we protect and those that we chose to help and fight alongside.
Many of those who died fighting for what the Poppy symbolises were Muslims, many of those Countries we fought to protect or fought alongside are deemed "Muslim Countries" thousands of muslims have died fighting for this Country because they believed that it was the right thing to do, there are over 500 muslims currently serving in the British Army today some in Afghanistan. To disrespect the Poppy is to disrespect Christians and Muslims alike, simple proof that some people haven't a clue what they are doing and just follow the teachings of extremist hell bent on obtaining power, a story the world has heard from the start of mankind.
I second your point
