Four per cent – the equivalent of more than 100,000 British Muslims – told the researchers that they had sympathy for people who take part in suicide bombing to fight injustice.

FD would you have sympathy for suicide bombing to fight injustice?

gandalf,

Surely moslems suicide bombers are fighting terrorism. .....aren't they ?

I remember one Indonesian moslem cleric claiming inferring that that was the motive of the Bali bombers.

The words 'injustice', and, 'terrorism', ....they are words which are so potentially 'pregnant' with the 'right' meaning, for political exploitation, .....eh gandalf ?

And by the way, that 4% just seems absurd.

I would think that close to 100% of human beings - let alone muslims - would have at least some sympathy for someone blowing themselves up to fight injustice.

Western culture and literature is riddled with glorifying the "suicide bomber". Think of the drunk crop-duster in Independence Day.

Your club did this and you defend the idiology behind it.
Not much more to say about your savage kind

You know I can tell my daughter I don't like what she did but I still love her. She understands the concept

I've heard some brave muslims in the media say there is cancer within Islam and if it's not cut out....well cancer usually wins.

I know you can't go around shouting that Islam in 2016 leads to violence. If you do it will give permission for evey muslim to go full bottle.

Equally harmful is to say any critique of Islam is Islamophobia NOTHING TO SEE HERE PEOPLE.

So what's your answer ?
