And when they do stand up against extremists ... WE should stand side by side with them, to show we appreciate their stance,
Muslims in anti-terror campaign
The campaign condemns all terror activities
British Muslims are leading a new campaign condemning the recent attempted car bomb attacks in London and Glasgow.
The campaign, titled "Not in Our Name", will be launched across the UK with adverts in newspapers.
It emphasises "the Muslim community's rejection of any attempts to link any such criminal attacks to the teachings of Islam", organisers said.
Muslims from various professions have backed the campaign, including doctors.
The advert, accredited to "Muslims United", also carries a quotation from Koran reading: "Whoever kills an innocent soul, it is as if he killed the whole of mankind.
"And whoever saves one, it is as if he saved the whole of mankind."
'Calm response'
The emergency services have been praised for "working tirelessly and courageously" while the government has been commended for handling the crisis "calmly and proportionately".
The advert, which will also appear on billboards, buses and underground trains, calls for the community to stand united against terrorism.
The campaign has received support from Conservative Muslim Forum, Islamic Relief, the Islamic Society of Britain and Muslim Doctors and Dentists Association among others.

What a dumb question . I can tell that you have been sheltered from the real world and the truth of Islam . Muslims are taught from childhood to hate everyone that isn't a muslim ! Your an unclean pig in there eyes ...
Peaceful muslims are like cowards at a bar fight , they hide under the table . They have the backbone of a jellyfish . And who gives a crap if there offended , that's major problem in this country "we don't want to offend anyone" god forbid !!!The only reason they speak out here is , they know that the goverment and those spineless liberals at the ACLU will stand up for there whining and crying butts .

Islam is not terrorism, but people are using it for their belief. Majority of terrorists are Muslims and all of them are ready to sacrifice them for their religion.
Islam is a very unpractical religion in this modern day. A muslim has to pray for 3 or 4 times a day for more than 10 minutes. Islam doesnt restrict 100 of marriages or 1000 of childrens.
People who want to fulfill their belief are using the loopholes in the religion for terrorism.

There are no longer any non violent muslims via fact they're all apprehensive of terrorists and so they stick to the call for jehad.Even enormously qualified muslims tell somethjng in inner maximum and a few situation else in public.This worry could be conquer first.Muslims could declare that each and all and sundry religions are comparable and anybody has an exquisite to stay peacefully.it incredibly is desirable to Christians additionally who're no much less enthusiast those days.

If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. No, only the Islamic terrorist blow up woman and children. With any other group it is a rare thing. Not even the nations of Islam condemn the terrorists. I do not hate Muslims but they do not make it easy. Peace

I've also read that a few British Muslims have publicly denounced terrorism. Alas, their American and general worldwide counterparts are still sitting on their hands about the 911 attacks.

One of the fundamental tenants of the Muslim religion is converting all non-Muslims to their faith to advance the Muslim religion around the entire globe and this action is to be completed using any means necessary, including terrorist actions and the beheading of all the non believing infidels.

It didn't happen for the last 1400 years.
Unless they come out STRONGLY against terror soon, We have every right to believe that Islam propagates terror.

No religion preaches terrorism, its the job of governments all over the world to isolate and kill them. If the politicians of this world dint come together today terrorism would one by one kill all of them. They are HIV for mankind
