[Don Seer]

[Don Rizzle]

they also been doing controlled explosions of more bombs/explosives

[Don Seer]

yeah i heard they also arrested 3 men at heathrow i think on the day itself..

[Don Seer]

-yawn-

[Don Seer]

now they haven't mentioned ethnic background, altho the eyewitness reports from the bus said the guy that blew up there looked middle eastern.

so there is no real indication of their ethnic background yet.

however the police did end saying something about how smears against communities shouldn't happen..


the solution depends upon the cause. going upon my current understanding (and assuming this is muslime related) i agree with the notion of more internal action and pressure from main stream, non extremist muslims to stop people, youngsters ending up as extremists. however from the outside it seems to be hard for the muslim community to act against it.

oh and a lot of the housing they went into in todays dawn raids was student housing now unoccupied as uni students are on summer break..

[Don Rizzle]

the thing is the terrorists are hoping for a backlash against muslim communities because it will give them more support/recruits amoungst british muslims. The muslim council of britain have shown themselves to be quite responsible in trying to get communities to engage with police. but i think they what really needs to addressed is the attitude problem alot of young asain men have because it really doesn't help relations between white and asain.

I never claimed to be an expert on anything. I just don't believe you can stereotype the people of an entire continent and say they have attitude problems. It doesn't take an expert to see what's wrong with that.

are you stupid? england isnt a continent. he said some young BRITISH asian men.. thats a specific group not the sweeping statement you're trying to make it.
