// Is it possible it was someone imitating a British accent for propaganda purposes? //

It is not an imitation accent. It is very clear on the audio and is unmistakenly a London accent albeit from a foreign sounding tongue. It is so clear that relatives and friends may recognise who it is. i would not be surprised if the identity is not already known.
How do you know that for a fact?
And follow Israeli policy.....chuck out their family
// It never ceases to amaze and infuriate me that when a respectable Muslim family from Pakistan and now residing in Birmingham... //

It is not a Birmingham accent. I am not even sure it is an asian one either.
zacs,

Have you heard it?

It would be impossible to imitated that mix of English and a foreign accent by anyone who has not lived here.
I agree with Fusion5----Stop giving so much time to these fanatics on Social Media sites. These sites are only adding fuel to what is already an inferno!!
The accent of the terrorist in the video certainly sounds British and I would say a well- educated person.
He sounds home grown from south east.

Birmingham was hypothetical re shoe bomber.Home bred muslim shoe bomber is fact.
I believe a Muslim Father,living in Birmingham, expressed great surprise that his son turned up in Syria quite recently and was photographed holding a kalashnikov whilst helping out with the rebel ISIS cause."Well who would of thought it?"
// Stop giving so much time to these fanatics on Social Media sites. //

I'm not sure what that even means? Are you claiming that people are liking Jhadists on Facebook and twitter and that is encouraging them? AB is a Social Media site. Are you suggesting it should not be allowed as a subject for discussion?
That is one incident. It was your 'never ceases to amaze' comment which suggested that you thought it was a frequently occurring situation which somewhat undermined what came after.

Richard Reid, AKA 'The Shoe Bomber' was born in Bromley, Kent. He was not Pakistani, his mother was English and his father Jamaican.

Lets get this clear.This is a serious subject and I am being serious. Are you?
May be It would of helped you understand what I am typing if I had written,
Birmingham,Bradford,Southall or wherever muslims hang their trousers.
Zacs-Master
Yes there are more incidents reported of stunned,amazed,gobsmacked,uninformed families denying any knowledge of their family members involvement/intent in acts of terrorist activities. Too many. Shoe bomber, Two Somali girls,young teens,trotting off to Syria to be Jihadist brides or whatever.Muslim doctors trained in the UK aiding ISIS terrorists in their Syrian hospitals.The London Tube/Bus bombers whose wives knew what their reconnaisance missions were all about before the events and said nothing. The two savages who butchered Lee Rigby.Although no family members said anything about them to the press we heard glowing testimonials of what nice guys they were and who would of thought it.There are plenty of examples of home grown terrorists.Have I mentioned enough for you?

Unfortunately, it's impossible to have a reasoned debate on this topic on AB, because at heart, it's almost impossible to be objective - furthermore, too many 'conversational cluster bombs' keep getting chucked into the thread.

For instance, I have learned today that there is no such thing as a moderate Muslim, and that liberals will only take terrorism seriously when there is a beheading in Islington.

I think the 'reasoned debate horse' has bolted and was last seen galloping to the hills.

Pity eh?

(Don't know how long you've been on AB - but 100% of all debates on terrorism descend to exactly the same place...)
Gromit
Understand. Birmingham and Pakistan family was hypothetical.
Other incidents mentioned are fact.Read whatever race you choose.Pakistan,Somali,Iranian,Turkisk,Afghani. Read Birmingham,Bradford,Southall,Gravesend,London if you want.The common denominator is home bred MUSLIM fanatics.I don't give a tinkers cuss for Richard Reid's parentage or he comes from L.B.B. He was a home bred muslim terrorist.
Retrocop,
We all know there are home grown Jhadists, that is who this thread is about. It seemed misleading to single out Pakistani Brummie shoe bombers when none existed.
The very nature of an uncover terrorist cell is to not attract attention to themselves. Family are in the dark about their activities, but British friends and work colleagues.
Dont forget, still at large, the white widow Samantha Lewthwaite from leafy Aylesbury. Her parents were in shock but didnt they notice her hijab?

sp
And where are you suggesting these debates generally descend to ?
If you are suggesting, and please correct me if I misunderstand you, that these debates descend into a Muslim bashing exercise then that may seem to be the case. Terrorism committed in the name of Islam is in a Global league of it's own.Horrendous as it was, the IRA terrorist bombings were not global.I did work in Central London during the troubles and the sight of WPC Jane Arbuthnott lying dead outside Harrods does come back to haunt me from time to time so let me make it clear I do not diminish that terrorism at all in comparing it to Terrorism committed by Muslim fanatics.
The spread is growing and as previously stated it is all over the world including our own doorstep and drastic and extreme measures must be made to try and eradicate it but I fear that it will be an almost impossible task but it must be attempted.
retrocop

Sometimes debaters on these threads are able to focus on discussing Muslim terrorism and/or Muslim fundamentalism...but not always.

I will leave you to make your own conclusions about the quality of all arguments on this thread.
Gromit.
Sorry you were misled.I hope I have now made myself clear to you and others.I was'nt actually talking about one individual shoe bomber who actually resides in Birmingham as it was a "for instance"
