Last update: 08.07.2005 05:00 GMT No freedom fighters "If these people (?) are Islamist hardliners, then how do they justify the inclusion of Moslems among their victims? Where in the Quran is the murder of women and children ever justifiable? These are not freedom fighters, nor is their cause worthy of anything but contempt because a hero, a fighter, a militant does not hide behind the deaths of civilians. He who kills women and children is a coward and a traitor to his cause from the outset." Timothy Bancroft-Hinchey of the russian newspaper PRAVDA in a column on the website. read more... The statement on an islamist website of a group that claims to be responsible for the attacks "In the name of God, the merciful, the compassionate, may peace be upon the cheerful one and undaunted fighter, Prophet Muhammad, God's peace be upon him. Nation of Islam and Arab nation: Rejoice for it is time to take revenge against the British Zionist Crusader government in retaliation for the massacres Britain is committing in Iraq and Afghanistan. The heroic mujahideen have carried out a blessed raid in London. Britain is now burning with fear, terror and panic in its northern, southern, eastern, and western quarters. We have repeatedly warned the British Government and people. We have fulfilled our promise and carried out our blessed military raid in Britain after our mujahideen exerted strenuous efforts over a long period of time to ensure the success of the raid. We continue to warn the governments of Denmark and Italy and all the Crusader governments that they will be punished in the same way if they do not withdraw their troops from Iraq and Afghanistan. He who warns is excused. God says: "You who believe: If ye will aid (the cause of) Allah, He will aid you, and plant your feet firmly." |
