Most terrorism in Manchester (and there has been sadly plenty over the years) was actually carried out by Catholics from Ireland.
Repeating the same lie again Jon ? I answered you and others on this topic several weeks ago and you and your friends couldn't think of a response. Repeating the claim again after several weeks is pretty pathetic.
There is no direct comparison between the IRA and Islamic extremism and I would like everyone who reads this thread to understand that. The IRA were politically motivated. Terrorism at this time was committed by people who happened to be Catholic or Protestant. Islamic extremism and the acts of terrorism they commit are done
because those people follow Islam (albeit a twisted interpretation of it). Their love of Allah is their only motivation and they feel killing innocent people is Allah's will. Now show me where the IRA ever committed an atrocity in the name of Jesus Christ..........
And Manchester stands strong, with local churchgoers and mosque worshippers reaching out in friendship, and will remain every bit as diverse as ever before.
Not every church and not every mosque are "reaching out in friendship" as you so poetically put it. The media in recent years paints the same narrative whenever we suffer at the hands of Islamic extremism so it's difficult to use mainstream media as the yardstick by which you can measure people's sentiment.
People who have less palatable views on the atrocity would probably not get any airtime as the networks wouldn't want to "offend" anyone.
Other news sources are reporting a rise in verbal abuse against Muslims in the immediate wake of the bombing. Even Muslim sources are admitting this so it's not all happy families over here Jon whatever you might say.
Wow, using the deaths of 22 innocent men, women and children in an attack targeted at children to score petty points against one's internet opponents.
What on earth are you actually trying to say ??? Bieganski was saying that some muslims happily live in the UK for years yet still have a hatred towards the British way of life and he was then asking why would some people believe it would be any different in Poland. How was he using the death of the 22 victims from the Manchester bombing and
why are you even trying to suggest that he was ???The propoganda and spin coming from people like you and Jon makes me sick to the stomach at times.
