listening to news this last 30 minutes or so, bbc news have been very quick to state that this was an islamaphobic attack ( finsbury park mosque )
the word islamaphobia has been used every single minute, hate attack , white , direct attack on muslims.

what about the many knife , machete and axe attacks carried out, not to mention the jihadi rapes against our children by " muslim men " against white europeans ?

Tit for tat killings are an unwelcome development, but not entirely unexpected. After the killing of Lee Rigby, many mosques were attacked.

I doubt this attack is part of an organised campaign of terror like the fanatical Islamic attacks in Manchester and London. I expect it to be an invividual with sympathies to the far right, who will turn out to be not very bright. I wouldn't be surprised if he has previous convictions for hooliganism.

But Islamaphobic is entirely the correct term for someone attacking strangers just because of their religion.

// but... why have we not seen reporting on muslim men killing white christian europeans , " muslim " rape gangs raping white european children in uk and sweden //

Obviously Rochdale and Rotherham have been widely reported. You cannot say they have not been reported on or hidden.

That's easy: they weren't caused by islamophobia, that's why

Well, Gromit, only two in your book. Not every major conurbation with a mosque and a Labour council, then?

Read Andrew Norfolk's investigation?

Look like this is the only 'terrorist attack' ISIS aren't eager to claim any credit for...

Quick off the blocks there, JacktheHat.

ummmm

DD...I'm not excusing anything.

// Well, Gromit, only two in your book. //

Don't be more of a prat than usual VE. Just because I gave 2 examples does not mean I do not know there were others.

Your claim that every major conurbation with a mosque has had muslim rape gangs grooming our children is of course a gross over exaggeration. It is a genuine concern that needs addressing by the Pakistani communities, but over stating the crime does nothing for the truth.

Forgive the editorialisation, Gromit.

No exaggeration.

By the way "Pakistani" is not the common theme. In Bristol the gangs were mainly not "Asian" but "African". Somali, perhaps?

Gromit, //I expect it to be an invividual with sympathies to the far right//

Why? It could be someone with no affiliation to right or left who who’s just sick of the slaughter committed by the farthest right that it's possible to be - radical Islam.

//But Islamaphobic is entirely the correct term for someone attacking strangers just because of their religion. //

No it isn't simply a term for someone attacking strangers - it applies solely to attacks - or even to perceived attacks - against Islam. No other strangers involved.

ED
" I am not sure about your OP Dick.

Do you mean to say that attacks on muslims for being muslim shouldn't be classed as islamaphobia?

Or that you want a word like it for the attacks on non-muslims by muslim extremists/terrorists? "

the post is very clear to me. again, the bbc and world media are very very quick to state terrorist attack , very quick to get the words extremist & far right broadcasted. when we all know that the same news was very slow to name the many many previous terror attacks as being committed by " muslims "

then just now i hear some wan***r on the radio talking about far right extremists such as tommy robinson, how to hell is tommy robinson " far right " so now we are classed as far right for opposing only islam even though we have many black, chines , asian, indian friends ?
