'UK's decision to deport 500 Muslims unjust'
LAHORE: The UK's decision to deport 500 Muslim leaders, teachers and owners of Islamic bookshops is hasty, undemocratic and unjust, said a Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) official on Monday. Talking to a group of Pakistani students studying in Britain and the USA at Mansoorah, Hafiz Mohammad Idrees, JI naib ameer, said Islam had nothing to do with terrorism, but the Western media had been implicating Muslims in every terrorist activity without any proof. He said that Islamabad could not take a stand against the UK's decision to deport Muslims because General Pervez Musharraf himself was bent on deporting foreign students from Pakistan.
It's almost tiresome to comment on anything anybody from JI says. To me, what was unjust was that killed 52 and maimed I don't know how many others, people who'd done nothing more threatening to Islam than getting up in the morning and going to work or shopping. Those being dumped aren't 500 innocents picked at random, but 500 loud-mouthed holy men who've been egging on the rubes toward mass murder. I guess it's natural that they'll get lots of sympathy from like-minded loud-mouthed holy men in Pakistan, which swarms with such moral cockroaches, and no doubt they'll all be able to get together and sympathize when Britain ships the refuse back there. |
