Muslim artist sparks outrage with angelic tribute to 7/7 suicide bombers
Daily Mail [UK] ^ | 11/26/10 | Staff

A Muslim artist has sparked outrage with his depiction of the ripped-apart bus destroyed in the 7/7 terror attacks.

The artwork shows four angels flying above the bombed bus - the same number of Al Qaeda terrorists who took part in the atrocity which left 52 commuters dead and maimed hundreds more on London's transport network.

Also seen are scores of ghostly souls shooting from the number 30 bus, which was travelling through Tavistock Square when it was devastated by suicide bomber Hasib Hussain.

Sickeningly, the £3,500 artwork, called Age of Shiva, is on display just one mile from where the 13 innocent commuters were killed as they travelled on the bus through central London.

The blast happened just after 9.45am on July 7, 2005 at the junction of Woburn Square and Tavistock Place.

Wonder if he will be arrested for inciting religious discord like the 15 year old girl in England that was arrested for burning a Koran and posting it on Facebook?

His “art” makes sense. Taking other people’s work and twisting it to fit his own twisted view of the world.

What comes to mind is the Chick tract “This Is Your Life” where the angel comes to get the man who dies in his sin to stand before the Judgement Throne. Which is a more accurate depiction of what happened than the one depicted.

Just a shock piece from an attention whore. Nothing more. There are four angels signifying the 4 terrorists but those souls are ascending upwards, not down to hell. It’s not even a statement.

These loser “artists” need to find a better ways to get their 15 minutes of fame.

Normal Brits have to be sharpening their own knives for retaliation. They gave up their guns years ago. Wonder how that’s working for them now?

The actual painting has more to do with Christian themes than Islamic. The souls are going from the bus heavenward. If they were infidels, they would be going down. The angels are obviously Raphaelic and are in line with Catholic art. The angels are definitely NOT Islamic or anything a bomber would want to be after a martyrdom.

This is an artists artistic idea of the event, not an Islamic tribute.

Guess again.

“The artist behind the 7/7 picture, Mark Sinckler (left), has claimed his intention was to ‘shock’ but John Falding, whose partner Anat Rosenberg (right) died in the Tavistock Square attack, said the artwork was ‘unnecessary’ and ‘upsetting’”

According to IowntheWorld.com, there is a new micro-chip available for Muslims that when properly implanted in the skull will allow them to talk directly to Allah...

They can and do violate the Koran... because they’re Muslims. This is what they do.

The Sharia restrictions are for the infidel dummies. Muslims can murder, rape, terrorize, steal, and scam us because they make up their own rules. Their religion allows this and that’s why I want them kept far away from the rest of us.

The West refuses to get it.

In reality this is a conflict between two paradigms and those who call themselves Muslim by default either support and agree with, or sympathies with the cause of the Islamist. As to the artist of this painting, what he created made complete sense to him and he sees nothing wrong with it I'm sure. Like the Cordoba Mosque, this is just a "matter of fact" or a "matter of perspective," and it's just one more example that highlights how completely different this culture sees the world from ours and how reconcilliation or compromise is completely out of the span of reasonable. For them, they see no reason to be upset over a Mosque built right on the the Temple Mound, and for the same reason why the average Westerner can't see the greater issue here but does get upset about this painting or a Mosque at ground zero in NY, they won't even know where or what the Temple Mound is all about. This isn't new, this isn't unique to the UK, this is just limited to a painting in how this is expressed.

The rest of the dribble about “religion of peace” or all this other crap is self appeasement.
