British Muslims were issued with a stark warning to stay indoors today, amid fears of reprisals following the London bombings.
Massoud Shadjareh, chairman of the Islamic Human Rights Commission, appealed for calm and condemned the bombings.
He said: The Islamic Human Rights Commission utterly condemns this attack, but now we appeal that there should be no further victims as a result of reprisals.
There was no immediate confirmation of who was responsible for the attacks, but a claim was made on the Al-Qalah Fortress internet site, by a group calling themselves the Secret Organisation Group of Al-Qaida of Jihad Organisation in Europe.
Mr Shadjareh said some members of the Muslim community suffered a backlash following the September 11 2001 terror attacks in the United States, and the Madrid train bombing in March 2004.
He said he was very concerned about a backlash and called on British Muslims to remain vigilant and calm and stay indoors.
He said: IHRC is advising Muslims not to travel or go out unless necessary, and is particularly concerned that women should not go out alone in this climate.
In the event of being attacked, IHRC urges victims not to retaliate and to report the matter to the police and appropriate authorities.
Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Qur'an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth --Omar Ahmed, Chairman of the Board of CAIR (Council of American Islamic Relations), San Ramon Valley Herald, July 1998
I believe that the socialist Limey elite still allows the commoners to possess spitballs. But I may be wrong.
You're either with us, or against us.... Thanks for telling us which side you are on, CAIR.
Gotta love that "Religion of Peace."
That's not a backlash. That is barely a ripple.
unlike the rape gangs in denmark Brit men dont just go and pickout someone who's 'not one of theirs'..
There's an oxymoron, if I ever heard one...
Odds are there will be some bloody backlash against those that pray to the black rock of mecca. The Brits are not dumb or cowardly and they won't sit back and let people walk all over them. This was a stupid move by the Moslems since a lot of what happened today will be caught on video. Instead of making the Brits cower like the Spanish I predict the opposite.
For those who want to nuke the Terrorists, the problem is that they are in the city. To nuke them would be to nuke your own city, and odds are good that wouldn't get them anyway.
If this keeps up, why shouldn't all the Moslims be shipped out to Africa? All.
They would be silent on that too, wouldn't they.
In the words of a famous American
"Can't we all just get along"
I think is was a Brit who said
"Give peace a chance"
In the PC world of today you should be careful not to hurt the feelings of someone who wants you dead.
Oh please, don't assume that the majority our men have the same sicko attitude that the majority of your men do towards women.
They are still working on their finely modulated response that expresses just the right degree of obviously feigned concern for the victims, emphasizes that the bombers were acting out of a deep concern for social justice, and manages to piss on the graves of the dead of 9/11 without being too obvious about it.
That's not the sort of thing you bang out in five minutes, you know!
Absolutely.
It is going to get worse before it gets better.
Well said! Ofcourse, what else can we expect from the putrid stinking "religion of peace"
What's CAIR stand for? Crappy A$$ed Ignorant Ragheads? Just wondering...
One lousy sentence condemning the attack. One they got that little inconvenience out of the way, they go on at length about their poor women getting attacked. Hey terrorist, a lot of London women were killed today by your people. Every thing this evil lying cult says is propaganda.
