Will Muslims denounce the atrocities too?

IF you thought public fury over the latest ‘IRA’ atrocities was impressive, wait for the uproar over the next 7/7.

For the jihadists haven’t gone away, either.

They are just furious that a few flint-eyed extremists from the Real IRA and Continuity IRA have beaten them to it.
Last week’s Belfast demos involved peace-loving citizens from both sides of the community.

The question is, will we see peace-loving Muslims, preferably some in hijabs, filling the streets of Bradford after the next Islamist outrage?

Most British Muslims are as appalled by violence as the people of Northern Ireland.
Some bravely condemned the Luton fanatics who spat bile at our soldiers as they marched home last week.

But would they turn out in their thousands to denounce another massacre like the London Tube murders?
Unlikely. Yet, if they fail to join other British citizens in publicly expressing disgust, they risk being seen as silent sympathisers.

This will be the acid test for multi-culturalism.

Successive British governments stood staunchly against violence in Ulster.
But there is no sign Islamist fanatics are being fought to a standstill in the same way here.
Quite the reverse. Despite advance warnings, authorities reacted only AFTER being slapped in the face on 7/7.
Even then, Tony Blair mouthed retaliation while the Government continued to sit on its hands.
Unlike Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness, who gave up the bomb and the bullet, zealots such as Anjem Choudary are not interested in political solutions.


The venomous hypocrite denies his past.

But lying is the default position for Islamists. Which is why we should question Guantanamo inmate Binyam Mohamed’s claim he was tortured by America and hung out to dry by the British.

On balance, I prefer the word of our security services.

The Ethiopian asylum seeker is another ex-druggie convert, deluded by fantasies of Islamic purity in hellholes such as Chechnya and Afghanistan.

Yet we are giving him sanctuary, at huge cost and potential risk.
He is not British. He should be sent home, along with ALL foreign terror advocates who trade off the freedoms they are so determined to destroy.

Ministers keep loading us with anti-terror measures, spending billions on ID cards to track our every move and demanding prior notice before any of us leaves these shores — even for a booze cruise or a Channel swim.

This is to stop “them” getting in or out. But “they” are already here... and most are British-born.
After 7/7, Tony Blair vowed to stop rogue mosques and madrassas preaching barbarism to impressionable young Muslims.

Yet today foreign-born imams still preach harsh Sharia diatribes against homosexuality, women’s rights and our way of life.
Thousands of gullible youngsters are secretly being taught and trained to take up arms against their own country.

Many Muslims are even more bewildered than I am by the way we soft-soap and subsidise those who wish us — and them — harm.
Ex-extremist Shiraz Maher says: “A generation of young Muslims is being radicalised by the very policy that is supposed to combat violence.

“There is an obsessive belief among some ministers and police chiefs that the way forward is dialogue with extremists who hate Jews, despise women and think homosexuals should be killed.”

Ed Husain, author of The Islamist, fears Muslims are not angry enough that their faith has been hijacked in the name of religious war.

Yesterday, he denounced the “treacherous” Luton protests, adding: “The vile mob that hurled abuse against returning troops do not operate in a vacuum, removed from other Muslims.
“Where was the local outrage against these bigots?”

Radicalised British Islamists with links to Pakistan are seen in America as the greatest threat to US homeland security.

“For me,” says Husain, “these are symptoms of failed Muslim leadership, a timid civil society and a British government that, more than three years after the July 7 bombings, is still unsure how best to proceed.”
