Why I am so annoyed by Lord Phillips speech

Lord Chief Justice Phillips gave his speech about accommadating Sharia Law into UK law whilst standing in the London Muslim Centre. As Melanie Phillips (as far as I am aware - no relation) points out:
"This centre shares the ideology of Jamaat e Islami, an extremist Islamist organisation which aims to Islamise the state and follows the teachings of Maulana al Maududi, who believed that the Jews worshipped Satan. The dignatory who opened the Centre a few years ago was one Sheikh Abdur-Rahman al-Sudais, who has in the past called the Jews ‘calf-worshippers, prophet-murderers, prophecy-deniers... the scum of the human race whom Allah cursed and turned into apes and pigs.. these are the Jews, a continuous lineage of meanness, cunning, obstinacy, tyranny, licentiousness, evil and corruption’."

For some strange reason I find this sort of language rather offensive, why does nobody seem to care?
