Muslims Say U.K. Policy Sparks Terror

LONDON - Prominent British Muslims, including three in Parliament, said in an open letter Saturday that Britain's foreign policy has made it a target for extremists. The country's terror alert remained at the highest level, though flights at Heathrow Airport were expected to return to "nearly normal."

The letter, printed in several British papers, said Britain's intervention in Iraq and the failure to secure an immediate cease-fire between Israel and Hezbollah militants in Lebanon were providing "ammunition to extremists who threaten us all."

"We urge the prime minister ... to show the world that we value the lives of civilians wherever they live and whatever their religion," said the letter, which was signed by three of four Muslim members of Parliament and 38 Muslim groups, including the influential Muslim Council of Britain. "Such a move would make us all safer."

It's never the fault of radical Islam, is it? The society of the perpetually pissed off will ALWAYS find something to justify killing infidels.

Stopping airplane bombing is just going to make them angrier and create more Jihadists. We should have let the plan go on to completion in the name of religious tolerance. Quite the logic.

[wildwood]

well, if it's not the policy, it's the culture. if it's not the culture, it's your religion. if it's not your religion, it's your ugly face.

whatever. they just don't like anybody but themselves, and then only if their faces are covered with a black cloth or a beard.

nice.

I've been trying to wake people up to this menace, for years:
( Notice anything familiar about that salute? )

Islam, a Religion of Peace®? ( links, blogs, quips, quotes, aggravating pictures ) is located here- click the Picture, and scroll backwards:

...and the barbarians are already inside our gates.

Never, ever, forget:

Where It's 9-11 all the Time: Click the Picture:

"Where it's nine-eleven all the time
and no Sun sets, and no clocks chime
where no voice speaks and no bird trills
the Moon hangs frozen o'er the hills
The winds are still, they seem to say,
Reflect, remember, stop to pray..."

...and at our neighbour's gates, as well:

Terror Strike Toronto ( Aborted! )-- Click the picture:

And then, there is this little problem:

Zell's analogy of finding a copperhead nest at his home is applicable here. When he found the viper's nest near where his grandchildren and family play and rest, he wasn't going to wait for them to strike. He killed the vipers before damage could be done.

So, this would be like saying that him wanting to protect his family is the reason they would want to strike.....but NO. The vipers strike because that is what they do.

Oh, so what war was the US fighting against the Muslims in 1993 when the one-eyed imam decided he wanted to blow up the World Trade Center? Osama declared war on the USA during the Clintoon administration, but of course Billy Jeff was too busy playing around to notice it. Later, he handed Kosovo to the Albanian Muslim squatters in Serbia in an attempt to buy Muslim good will, and we see how well that worked.
Muslim attacks on the West did not start with the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Nice attempt by the lying Islamofascists to re-write history, though.

Screw Islam.

Muslim rage is irrational. They complain bitterly about the supposed repression of the Palestinians by Israel when such is self-inflicted. Meahwhile, most Arab government inflict far worse repression on their own Muslim subjects with nary a peep.

The lesson? You cannot cater to their grivences in hopes of calming them. They will just find something else to get mad about, because their end goal is to end Western civilization.

[Shimmer128]

oh, it's all our fault. Well, ok then! That's settled.

[Dallas59]

Along that same vein....Islam promotes the 13th century..

"well, if it's not the policy, it's the culture. if it's not the culture, it's your religion. if it's not your religion, it's your ugly face."

Or the piglet on your desk,or the piggy banks that you keep your spare change in, or the fact that all women are not covered from head to toe, or that St. George and the dragon is a reminder of the Crusades, or your country's flag has a cross in it,or you're wearing a cross around your neck, or you want them to comply by the same rules as everybody else in the country, and on and on and on. Constantly coming up with reasons to rape, kill, or maim.

"Muslims Say U.K. Policy Sparks Terror"

That's right up there with: "The bitch makes me beat her".

[OldFriend]

The lovely Christianne Amanpour agrees that it's everyone's fault but the terrorists.

Why not drag out Peter Arnett too and let him give us his version of the cause of terror.

"Britain's foreign policy has made it a target for extremists."

Britain isn't Spain and I've never known a Brit that would give into blackmail.

If it were permissible, I'd say, "Go to ----!"

[dennisw]

Do the Moos ever STFU and stop blaming others for what the effin ummah does?

[livius]

Make that 7th century.

[Steel Wolf]

That's right up there with: "The bitch makes me beat her".

Bingo.

Most of the apologists for radical Islam start with the premise that we're the ones to blame because Muslims can't control their emotions. Offending them justifies a violent response, so we had it coming.

[expatguy]

Translation ~~

Mold and adjust your foreign policy to suit our wishes and we will stop terrorizing you.

They want to reestablish the old Caliphate, including Northern Africa and Spain, etc., and that's just for starters. Israel must go, then they're willing to discuss the surrender of the rest of the world. They're not kidding about this. Bottom line: since the US is the only nation strong enough to stop them and we have to get serious.
