Two wrongs do not make a right!

That does not make what happened in London a less heinous crime. Nothing can justify the killing of innocent non-combatants. The people who committed these acts are killers, they did not care who died in their attacks. I do not consider them to be Muslims, for they did not stop to ponder over the teachings of Islam. It was just indiscriminate slaughter. There is a right way and a wrong way to fight injustice. The people of Iraq are resisting the occupation of their lands. The people who bombed the underground railway and the buses in London may have invoked Iraq, but they are not friends of Iraqis. For their actions hurt the cause of Iraq and Islam.

There are millions of people in Britain and the United States who have opposed and are continuing to oppose the war. But the terrorist attacks will weaken their hand, and strengthen the warmongers. Is it any surprise that Tony Blair's approval rating has soared? Is it any surprise that the controversial anti-terror laws will now be passed comfortably?

There is no bravery in targeting unsuspecting office goers in Aldgate. That is cowardice. That is not what Islam is about. Sahara Islam, who died on one of those ill-fated London buses, was the cousin of a friend of mine. Just try to tell them that their sister was killed in retaliation of Iraq war!
