Regular visitors will know of my repeated requests to find out what more it is that Muslims can do to fight terror. As Atif Imtiaz has said, there are only really two things we can do, and are doing.
However, Home Secretary John Reid has finally added another. He has today proclaimed from his pulpit, The Sun, that Muslims need to be watching their children:
So I appeal to you to look for changes in your teenage sons — odd hours, dropping out of school or college, strange new friends. And if you are worried, talk to them before their hatred grows.
...
Terrorism can be defeated only when we all work together to defeat it. That’s why it is so important that Muslims join us in exiling extremism from our country — and from their communities.
Note the weaselly Muslim must "join us", implying ever so unsubtly that we're not doing enough. Our children are going to carry out bombings, but we do nothing about it.
Hat tip to the ever-excellent Islamophobia Watch







Surely there's a typo there, and should read
"EXPORTING etxremism from our country"
- as New Labour has undoubtedly done - exporting it successfully to Iraq, Afganistan, Palestine and Lebanon -
At the same time, dealing successfully with these Muslim bairns by blowing them to bits because brave New Labour mouthpieces have complete immunity-impunity to mass-murder whom they please abroad, using billions of UK taxpayers money to do it with.

He is right. The Ummah must unite and fight fascist America.

Here is what us British taxpayers are doing to export violence and mayhem abroad - footing the bill!
£6.4 billion spent on attacking and destroying Iraq alone -

- a nifty little letter that has references to various British budget allocations, stats etc
Strange how the hot-air machine called Reid fails to let us all know how much of our money New Labour is using on promoting peace and democracy abroad - you would think he'd be proud to let us all know -
Then again,
Reid using one of Raving Madman's racist blatt's to pontificate to his vctims about how their bad parenting leads to terrorism seems somehow counter-productive itself, I would have thought -
More going on than meets the eye - not something you can say that often about Raving Madman's racist bilge or New Labour and its efforts to scapegoat and attack innocent defenceless communities, both at home and abroad

Interesting. Under Nazism and Stalinism, children were urged to denounce their parents to the authorities. Under Blair's New World Order, parents are urged to denounce their children to the authorities. New variations on an old theme.
