Perhaps this is the start of a reformation in Islam
I applaud their statement
I'd like to see more Muslims condemning mindless attacks and I'd like to see their help in rooting out the violent ideology that seems to promote these kinds of attacks

Why was it only muslim women on that bridge?
Did the men send them there to make islam look peaceful?
If they went on their own accord [which I hope], did the men think it was too 'gay' [sorry gay's, love you but you all know what I mean ] to stand there to show solidarity?
Either way is bad.
I know, and so does anyone else with a brain cell, that there are peace loving muslims; but they are either 'proper' muslims - in which case they can't possibly like our way of life [which they make clear by dressing in islamic clothes] or they are not proper muslims, in which case they are not the ones to worry about.
Please remember that you can be peace loving, yet still want your religion to spread in our country because you think we are all heathens and hate our culture.
They are not mutually exclusive.

This is strictly my own opinion, but Islam is guilty as are Muslims with the possible exception of Shia and other minority sects. Why I say this is because it is being proven that the vast majority of terrorists active in Europe and the West are home grown. That means, that some Western mosque is responsible for what is now termed radicalisation, some supposedly westernised family is responsible for their children becoming terrorists, westernised communities of Muslims are responsible for not nipping this in the bud immediately and for not outing those they KNOW are sympathisers & active terrorists. Simplified I know but I do lay the blame squarely on Muslims shoulders at this point in time, for I am certain that had the last 20yrs or so been terrorised by Christians we/they would have done everything in our power to stop it and prevent it spreading but due to the tenets of Islam, Muslims are prevented from speaking out for the most part, prevented from handing over known terrorists and appear happy to keep silent through either fear or loss of honour. I didn't used to blame Muslims generally, I still do in fact feel for many of them, but they are NOT helping their cause. This little show of sympathy may help show some of the public that Muslims do care, however, the damage has been done....and been done very well

Are Christians terrorising most countries on the planet?
