THE Spanish Islamic Commission has thanked the country for the “exemplary” way in which it has made a distinction between Islam and terrorism after the March 11, 2004 attacks in Madrid.
“We feel deep and strong solidarity with the victims and their loved ones who have shown an exemplary attitude by never pointing a finger at the country’s Muslim population but, on the contrary, could tell the difference between terrorists and the Muslim people,” commission secretary-general Riay Tatary told private Spanish radio Cadena Ser.
Referring to the train bombings that killed 191 people in the Spanish
capital a year ago, he said: “It causes profound pain to all Muslims.”…
Well, um, maybe not ALL Muslims…
