If you want people to go and look at suggested documents, it might be worth getting their name as nearly right as you can manage, so that they can follow up on it. Plus there's the stuff about the Daily Mail or Mirror, which we still haven't got to the bottom of. Already answered on mis-spelling. however re-posted a prior post with media source corrected. To further clarify the newspaper used the exact same quotes posted by you. I reference the Daily Mirror as it was the source publication a few days ago which quotes info that been known for years as though it's some form of recent revelation.

OK, I'm not going to pursue this any further, it's getting sillier by the minute. I have no interest in what the Daily Mirror says. But I shall read the Management of Savergy with interest.

You should read what members there think of Campion; they consider him a self aggrandising walt who uses tragedies such as this to publicise his books. I can only assume Sky News interviewed him because as a 24 hour news channel they have time to fill and no one else was available. I agree with him whole heartedly and so do very many of my left wing, softie, academic friends. It really is enough. Children were targeted. Sow the wind, reep the whirlwind.

(there are not 1.8 billion terrorists) What is the definition of a child in the koran? I don't do Arabic Nobody is saying there are 1.8 billion terrorists. However, two old Muslims expressing distaste do not necessarily reflect the majority. Let's see some huge demonstrations on the streets of England. Come on, millions of you....

My issues are more substantial than that. For example quoting me and then inserting a change is really below the line. (Particularly when the change is aimed at framing me) I am here for informative discussion and, on occasion, to learn something! I have been suspended several times and now I do try to follow the rules both verbatim and intent. Obviously the murder of children is a sensitive matter and I appreciate the leniency shown by Mods. However, there are limits. It is an interesting, if arcane, fact that second person singular and plural are both "you". I did not direct my comments at a person but at a group (but not all). I reserve my right to voice my honest opinions. I have posted a report maybe 4 times in two years. This largely as recommended, rather than retorting. As a famous fence sitter, you must find it amusing that I am sometimes on one side of your fence and sometimes the other? Now, if you will excuse me, back to the thread ?

RickBradford Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 The Manchester bomber apparently considered himself a victim of "Islamophobia" — he complained along those lines about a schoolteacher who asked him his views on Middle East conflicts. Who created and stoked his anger at "Islamophobia"? We did, or rather the media and government did. As Brendan O'Neill puts it: "When politicians and the media and the Islamophobia industry constantly tell Muslims they're under threat and that everything from jokes about Muhammad to criticism of the hijab is "Islamophobia", it is not surprising that some come to see themselves as victims, as being under siege, as basically on a war footing against the rest of us. "We tell them society hates them, and what happens? They start to hate society." Political correctness in action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a devout atheist I abhor all religious violence. Abraham must be rotating in his grave to see how all the religions descended from him behave. Now, back to the topic.

LammyTS1 Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 Rather than vigils to show no support for the terrorists committing these despicable murders in the name of islam, it would be a real eye opener for these extremists if Muslims simply rejected their religion & became atheists.

I did not know my post was deleted, I assumed I had not pressed post. There were multiple statements previously saying that members of the community including an Imam had reported this person to the antiterrorism hot line. What should we infer from this now? That MI5 are lying? To what negative behaviour are you referring? Nothing would please me more than to hear that the communities were indeed trying to protect their fellow men from such attacks. I was disappointed at the news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just did a search of BBC news website, only thing that came up is " MI5 is to hold an inquiry into the way it dealt with warnings from the public that the Manchester suicide bomber, Salman Abedi, was a potential threat. The security service, which was alerted to Abedi's extremist views three times prior to last Monday's attack, will examine how it dealt with the warnings.

The anti terrorist hotline was established in Feb 2012. That happens to be 5 years ago. I can still access emails from 20 years ago using various search criteria. So the claim is now that he was allegedly reported 5 years ago (at age 17) according to a community worker, and MI5 have not kept the records Hmmm!
