Why didn’t we see a Syrian Christian or someone from the Yazidi community as the London attacker? Did they never try and take revenge against any Muslims? They were subjected to brutal persecution in Syria-Iran as well. Their mothers-sisters were made sex slaves by Islamic jihadists and then raped. Every African Christian has been forced to flee the country, before Boko Haram subsequently made their mothers-sisters into sex slaves. So why doesn’t any angry African Christian plot attacks in revenge?
Or why doesn’t an Indian Sikh plot revenge against Westerners just because they make fun of his turban? And yet when someone makes fun of a Muslim’s beard, that Muslim will fork out his rifle in anger and gun down innocent women-children…Has any Hindu proceeded to pursue someone in vehemence, after being fed up of finding cow beef in his burgers? And yet there are attacks conducted on Western pubs and bars during Ramadan…
The men responsible for the London attacks are 27 year old Khurram Shazad Butt and 30 year old Rashid Redwan! The first man is a British citizen of Pakistani descent. The other is a Moroccan. Both were followers of religion. Both of these men bellowed ‘Allah is great’ before diving in to exterminate the enemies of Islam…
So why do only followers of peaceful religions turn into violent attackers? What do they believe in? What is written in their scriptures? I would like to pose these questions to the new generation. Hrithik Ghtak once said, ‘Think and practice thinking.’ And I agree. In truth the whole point of me writing is to instigate thinking, inspire questions….
