Muslim Men and the Roots of Anger |
2008-07-30 |
Before resting its recent case against Mohammed Momin Khawaja under Canada's Anti-Terrorism Act, the prosecution presented Momin's former fiancée, Zeba Khan, as the final witness via a video link from Dubai. Ms. Khan reportedly stated in her testimony: "You will not meet a young Muslim man in the world who is not angry about something. Anyone who watches the news, if he wasn't mad then, a) there's something wrong with him, or b) he's ignorant." Obviously, not all angry young Muslim men are engaging in violence -- nor, of course, are all Muslims terrorists. But many terrorists are found to be Muslims. Ms. Khan's remark purports to explain the linkage. It is perhaps no coincidence that Mr. Khawaja has Pakistani roots. In recent years, Pakistan has become a haven for al-Qaeda terrorists. For longer than that, jihadis have recruited Pakistani boys and men to fight in Kashmir and Afghanistan. These brainwashed men may be volunteers headed out to fight infidel "invaders" and "occupiers" of Muslim lands, but it cannot be said that they are acting entirely on their own initiative. |
