For the most part, this is a pretty tepid condemnation of the murdering Muslim mindset, but a few statements carry some weight.

mass murder is somehow less atrocious when it is motivated by an elaborate narrative of political grievance.

This is the mantra of the barbarians: their actions are justifiable since the West has historically oppressed the Palestinian people blah blah blah and stained the holy lands with their infidel presence yada yada yada. Every time this claptrap is voiced, it should immediately be stamped "Rejected." There is no moral, logical, or historical validity to the claim whatsoever. It is nothing more than an excuse, the Islamic cultural equivalent of making a defense of an offense.

If young British Muslims are alienated, that is sad and their anger should be addressed.

Yeah, the same way other vague, communal "anger" is addressed: by ignoring it. It's nothing but childish whining. There is literally NOTHING for these animals to be angry about. Not that that stops them ...

But anyone whose alienation leads them to want to kill indiscriminately has crossed a line into psychopathic criminality.

Gee, ya think? Does that mean that I'm not justified in climbing a tower with a rifle just because I got a parking ticket, or because my boss is a bureaucratic pinhead?

Policy cannot be dictated by the need to placate such people.

I would amend this to read "Policy cannot be dictated by the need to TOLERATE such people." No society need suckle its own destroyers.

British Muslim leaders are entitled, along with everybody else, to raise questions about the conduct and consequences of Mr Blair's foreign policy.

I don't think "redress of grievances" includes flying airplanes into office buildings.

But they have a more immediate responsibility to promote the truth: that Britain is not the aggressor in a war against Islam; that no such war exists; that there is no glory in murder dressed as martyrdom and that terrorism is never excused by bogus accounts of historical victimisation.

And more than that, that anything is to be gained by murdering thousands of innocent Westerners. What do they think, that one day they'll blow up enough stuff that all Western governments will say, "Okay. We give up. We've ordered all our citizens to wrap bedsheets around their heads and start screwing goats."

If there's a point to me made with all this mayhem, it's that Islam is organically incapable of living in peace. It is a "religion" that demands enemies, and if it doesn't find them, it will manufacture them at random.
