Bombers' community fears backlash
BBC ^ | Wednesday, 13 July, 2005 | Mike Chilvers

The revelation that three of the London bomb suspects grew up in the same district of Leeds has left the Muslim community there in a state of shock. Shehzad Tanweer, Mohammed Sadique Khan and Hasib Hussain all had strong links with Beeston, south of the city centre.

Asian people in the streets around Tanweer's Colwyn Road home told how they fear they will suffer reprisals.

"We're scared the finger of blame will be pointed at all of us," said 24-year-old Nusrat Hussain.

...and still, their first thought is for themselves, absolutely no words of sympathy for those murdered by their terrorist sons...

"Nowhere does Islam tell you to go and kill yourself. It is the worst thing you can do."

Not to mention anyone else, omg...

She believes the suspected bombers must have been influenced by a mastermind outside the local community.

"There are three mosques that people go to round here and you would never hear anything like that there. I don't know anyone who thinks like that."

This is scary now, knowing that these children were brought up here and have done this

Her friend Uzma Rafiq, until recently a student in Leeds, said: "There must be somebody else behind this who has sent them down the wrong path.

DUH! But as long as you keep protesting that it could never ever be a real muslim that would do this, you condone their actions, feed their fire.

Sometimes fear is a terror-ific motivator.

Indeed there is. His name is Mohammed and he's been burning in Hell for almost 14 centuries now.

Most guilty are, the innocent are usually less concerned.

These IslamoVermin are lying through their teeth. It has to be common knowledge among this "community" that terrorists were recruiting and training.

The fear backlash because in the Muslim world that is what would happen to them if the shoe were on the other foot. The Soviets in Lebanon put a stop to kidnapping their people back in the day by kidnapping and killing the families of the kidnappers.

Perhaps a little Arab Street payback would settle down these crazies.

Why are they afraid, it's not like suicide bombing is a local practice, as opposed to a Muslim one.

It's always the same with these subhuman vermin. "We're shocked ... SHOCKED ... I tell ya! Little Abdul was always good with a rifle and sure, he dabbled in explosives and virulent hatred. But we all just thought is was a phase he was going through. We never expected him to be a suicide bomber. A throat-cutter, maybe. A kidnapper/bushwacker/killer of innocents, sure. But not this. Never THIS!"

Too bad Leeds is not a seaport. They could load and ship from the same zip code.

And we will continue to strip search and hassle little elderly ladies, infants, and everyone else in the airports... exposing many to foot fungi and so on, all so we don't upset the 19 - 40 year old male Muslim murderers and their friends...

Of course Islam does tell it's adherents to kill infidels (non-Muslims) and if you need to die to accomplish that, well your place in Paradise awaits.

They should pack their bags and a jug of water because it doesn't rain much in Algeria.

The backlash should occur not against some poor brown skinned schmucks working the graveyard shift at Quik-E-Mart, but against the political/media/academic elites who have been importing this muzzlelimb disease by the million, while at the same time shipping back home legitimate refugees from the Communist Utopias (as happened just last month in Florida, for example.) Until the migration direction is reversed, we'll be seeing more of the same, let's not fool ourselves otherwise.
