Four New Zealand Muslim Mosques Attacked After London Terror Bombings
http://ap.tbo.com/ap/breaking/MGB26SQMYAE.html

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) - Four mosques were vandalized in northern New Zealand overnight Sunday, leaving windows smashed and walls splashed with graffiti, police said.


They declined to say whether the attacks in Auckland were linked to subway and bus bombings in central London Thursday, which killed at least 49 people and injured 700.

But Prime Minister Helen Clark immediately condemned the attacks, linking them to retaliation for the London terror bombings. A group calling itself The Secret Organization of al-Qaida in Europe has claimed responsibility for the London attacks.

"New Zealanders across all communities are horrified by the terrorist attacks in London, which are the work of evil people," she said in a statement. "But it is wrong to target the Muslim community here in retaliation."

1. Why?
no one really knows for sure if it were Muslims that did the London or Madrid attacks. Probaly something even more sinister than Muslims.

2. Well, that's your "faith-based" vigilantism, you see.
They don't need that liberal press to tell 'em who done it - they got their own ways of gettin' their beliefs. :eyes:

4. I think it's a safe bet...

I think it's pretty safe to assume that the al Quaida terrorists who bombed the train in Madrid consider themselves muslim. Whether other muslims consider them to be muslim is another matter.
