Empathise with how you feel. I have two young children as well. I also work with a nice Pakistani man and have met his friends. You know how males are supposed to think about sex several times an hour or day ? Well Muslims in this country think about the injustices to Muslims in occupied Palestine, in Kashmir, in Chechnya , Afghanistan and the daily slaughter in Iraq constantly. They feel an attack on a muslim is an attack on them.
Now, not all would consider becoming martyrs to their pain, they react in different ways.
Al Quaeda does not exist as an organisation-it is a Western fabrication. However, the loose network of ideas is perpetuated from what Western governments have done in the Middle East.
The only way in the future to feel safe is for our troops to pull out.
Blair argues that 9/11 was before the West invaded Iraq, hoping we’ll believe his stance. The first Gulf war was 1991 and between then and the second occupation and slaughter, 500 000 iraqi muslim children died due to US sponsored sanctions. This, and other ’incidents’ like when US jets bombed fifty Afghanis at a wedding and didn’t even apologise, tends to really piss off Muslims in the UK. And quite understandably.
I just wish someone would tell Blair...or is he aware ?
