Islamophobia

Islamophobia (12/07/2005)

El conflicto y la violencia generada por el terrorismo, de Estado incluído, está resultando en la división, racismo y odio entre civilizaciones/religiones. Aunque todavía pueden ser considerados como "casos aislados", las represalías en contra de los practicantes del Islam son cada vez más frecuentes. Luego de los ataques del 9/11 en Estados Unidos y las recientes explosiones en Londres, Inglaterra, las represalias en contra del Islam y sus practicantes han ido en aumento. Desde las detenciones arbitrarias de los gobiernos "afectados", hasta las grocerías "insignificantes" del día a día, el odio entre las religiones/civilizaciones es el resultado de acciones bélicas ilegítimas, bombardeos y ataques suicidas en contra de civiles.

The Shajala mosque, in Birkenhead, Wirral, was attacked by two white men who threw petrol through the letterbox and ignited it. The assistant imam, Boshir Ullah, was trapped in his upstairs bedroom, as fire raged on the landing outside. Fire crews pulled him to safety from an upstairs window and extinguished the blaze.

Mr Munim's sense of despair is shared by senior members of Muslim communities across Britain which have suffered an increasing number of attacks since the bombings in London last Thursday. The attacks prompted the country's most senior Muslim leader to write to imams across Britain warning them to guard against a wave of Islamophobia. Iqbal Sacranie, secretary general of the Muslim Council of Great Britain, said racists had firebombed mosques and attacked other Islamic institutions across Britain. Arson and criminal damage have been reported in Tower Hamlets and Merton, both in London, Telford, Leeds, Bristol and Bradford.

De las últimas investigaciones que ha realizado Scotland Yard se puede casi afirmar que los cuatro suicidas eran británicos, al parecer de orígen pakistaní.

The four young British men, all thought to be of Pakistani origin, are believed to have blown themselves up with rucksack bombs on Thursday, killing at least 52 people.

Police searched Colenso Mount in Leeds, the home of Hasib Hussain, believed to be responsible for the bomb on the No 30 bus that blew up in Tavistock Square. They also raided Colwyn Road in Leeds, the home of Shahzad Tanweer, believed to be responsible for the Aldgate blast.

Searches also took place at the home of Naveed Fiaz in Stratford Street, Leeds, and Rashid Facha, in Lees Holm in Dewsbury.

Only one of the three identified suicide bombers had any known connection to al-Qa'ida suspects, and it was a very low level of association, according to security sources.
