British-born suicide bombers
It seems to be official. The four mass murderers in London killed themselves in the blasts, and all were born in the UK. The Times of London is most concerned at the killers’ British origins, and at the thought that other Muslims in the community to which the killers belonged may have known of their intentions yet did nothing to stop them. Instead of drawing rational conclusions from this, however, the Times retreats to the usual liberal exhortations: “The law-abiding majority [of the Muslim community in Britain] must recognise a responsibility to end the cult of nihilistic extremism and an imperative to be intolerant of intolerance.” I just love that word “must.” What if the British Muslims don’t do what the Times says they “must” do? Hmm? What will the Times say then? Will it call for a crackdown on British Muslims? Of course not. It will just keep repeating, until Doomsday, that the British Muslims “must” do such and such, in the same way that a contemporary liberal mother repeatedly tells her child to sit still in a restaurant or subway car, but does nothing to stop him from running all over the place.
Also, notice what the Times sees as the cause of the problem: not the religion of jihad that commands the imposition of terror and death on all infidels, but “intolerance.” Liberals actually think that “intolerance” is the reason that four young British-born Muslims mass murdered 50 people and killed themselves. But notice where this liberal definition of evil leads. If intolerance is the cause of such horror, then intolerance must surely be eliminated. But the primary manifestation of intolerance in today’s Britain is, from the point of view of the liberals, the supposed intolerance of whites for nonwhites, of traditional Britons for Third-World newcomers. Therefore the way for Britain to protect itself from Muslim extremism is to welcome Muslims more extravagantly than ever before, and to silence any criticism of Muslims more stringently than ever before.
