My thoughts and prayers are with the Victims of the atrocities that were committed in London over the last two weeks. I, as a law abiding Muslim, have lived in this country all my life and I condemn any type of terrorism.

BUT it is sad to say that however hard we try to put this message through, that Muslims are not terrorists, people still (somehow) hold the Muslim community responsible, and not only that, they have gone to the extent that mosques now have started to be attacked with fire bombs and paint bombs.

I would like to know is any effort being made to sort this problem out or is there any attempt being made by the media to remove this misconception????

me as a citizen of this country feel as it is not....if this had been the other way round and it was other places of worship being dismayed would the media have the same silent reaction...?
