5 facts

Post by Essex Lad »

1) More Muslims were killed by Saddam Hussein than by the Allied forces in Iraq (and he was a Muslim - funny how no Muslims were seen on the streets protesting at him).

2) Why do Muslims believe the Gulf War(s) is/was a new crusade against Islam? It's about regime change/oil/take your pick.

3) No Muslims seem to be very grateful that it was British soldiers sent into the Balkans by Tony Blair that stopped the Serbs murdering Bosnian Muslims.

4) You can't actually deport the protesters as most of them were born here.

5) Politicians for the most part don't condemn Muslims because they are (justifiably) scared of them.

I would agree that Saddam was our problem but I still don't recall Muslims taking to the streets calling for his removal or indeed criticising him for kiling fellow Muslims.

The BBC site reference says that Muslims protested at a mosque about the forthcoming war: "Thousands of Muslims have gathered at the UK's most important mosque on one of the holiest days in their religious calendar to protest against the prospect of war in Iraq.

"Up to 4,000 men and women gathered hourly at London's central mosque in Regent's Park to hear sermons against military action in Iraq."

But so did hundreds of thousands non-Muslims.

Where are the Muslims criticising the ones who defiled the Two Minute Silence? Where are the Muslims criticising people like Abu Hamza (bit unfortunate that, a Muslim with ham in his name), Omar Bakri or Trevor Brooks?

Essex Lad: Have you even asked a Muslim about his or her views on Abu Hamza or Omar Bakri?
Also how is it unfortunate that 'Hamza' has the syllable 'ham' in it? One is Arabic whilst the other is English.
