Recent newspaper reports have revealed an Islamic plot to destroy an number of major oil refineries in different parts of the UK - one of them being in my home town. A computer data stick was found with very detailed information on these sites when terrorists were arrested for planning to blow up seven transatlantic planes with liquid explosives inside soft drinks bottles.
The oil refinery in question employs 1,000 staff and sits next to a town of 17,000 people which includes myself, my entire family and basically everyone I know in this world.
A video was also found with the suspects claiming responsibility for the destruction and explaining how they are waging a “holy war” against “non believers” and how “there is no God except Allah”. Apparently, Allah likes it when people kill in his name and won’t be satisfied until the West converts to his law. Like that is going to happen..
I pride myself on my diversity and I’m interested in a lot of cultures in the world but when I’m up against crap like this, I find it very hard to remain tolerant. Part or me knows these people are fanatics and are in no way a true reflection of their religion but another part of me wants to deport every single one of them out of the UK so my loved ones will be safe.
I agree with you but I also have met muslims who are so afraid of them too and poor God or Allah really have nothing to do with terrorists, they are just an excuse. It’s written nowhere in the Koran or bible that we should kill each other !
Mr. Gattino thanks for your birthday wishes ! He purred like a big cat yesterday, lol !

I’m total afraid reading your post and I don’t understand watching the news on TV today nothing hear about. I think The representant of Islam after a such event should speak on media to confirm their position against such informations! No? Things must be definitively clear! terrorist and religion of islam have nothing to do. If terrorist use this religion to create an horror climate the people who represent thousand of people must expose clearly these are criminals and nothing to do with islam. I understand people are afraid after the 11 th september.

This is scary! I think the world needs to ban together to get control of these sociopaths/pests/coachroaches. And then send them off to some isolated and very cold island without clothes!

I saw this on CNN and I am so glad they put a stop to it. I pray that you will never see a 9-11. I understand how you feel. I would love to send them all back but I just try to remind myself that not all of them are like that. I still have a hard time trusting them though.
