I don't think you can use the Boston Marathon bombing in your argument.
First, these were Chechnyan's pissed off at Russia so bombing the US simply doesn't make any sense whatsoever, then add to that, the alleged bombers themselves were executed and never had the ability/opportunity to speak in their own defense or even to their own reasoning if it did happen to be them that did it, and you have a basic conundrum.

I don't see it as unfair to compare....
First, in the UK the "sharia zones" or whatever those were do you even know who instigated those and how many people were actually behind it?
That was instigated by a WHITE BRITISH convert to the most radical sect of Islam that exists today... he was not born Muslim, he did not even have any religious knowledge of Islam and Muslims were against him and his little gang of converts who wanted a ruckus caused, from the first day he started that crap.
Muslims were appalled at what he was doing, and the consensus in the Muslim community was that he was working for your government in an attempt to create strife between average British peoples and average Muslims...
and a political agenda has nothing to do with the wahabbis you say? That is the only thing the wahabbis care about is the political agenda.... so you CAN compare them to other religious groups who do what they do for political agenda....

Can someone please explain why Governments allegedly want the people divided? Surely that is the complete opposite of what they want. Far harder to control a divided public. I've never quite understood that concept when its been suggested seems pretty pointless

The answers to your questions are yes, yes, and yes. I'm happy to see someone has the courage to send a message to the Muslims.
