Sulaiman Vali is a softly spoken 32-year-old computer engineer. A natural introvert not drawn to controversy or given to making bold statements, hes the kind of person who is happiest in the background. He lives alone in a modest house on a quiet street in a small town in East Northamptonshire. He doesnt want to be any more specific than that about the location. If someone found out where I lived, he explains, they could burn my house down.
Why should such an understated figure, someone who describes himself as a nobody, speak as if hes in a witness protection programme?

My bet is that the Guardian thinks this is a bad thing.
Will libs call them uncle toms for embracing the west?
I wonder if we can pass a law that takes away the protection of being a religion from any religious group that calls for the death of any of its members that quite or criticize the religion
They published his name - the arm of Islam is long. God protect him, we need 1.2 billion more of him.
I can’t bring myself to call it a “faith.” If more Muslims would get over the brainwashing they go through that’s loosely termed their “education,” the world would be a better place. Tomorrow.
Good thing nobody knows his name.
A hopeful article actually. Of course, you have the fanatic nature of Islam to contend with but some people are trying.
