Dance of deception
The assumption that worldwide Islam bears the responsibility for radical
young men and women who blow up buses and trains is devoid of logic and
conscience.
Enough of giving advice to Muslims. Our responsibility is to demand that
Western leaders accept that what they've done to others has a direct
connection to what is now being done unto us.

US 'misread motivation' of suicide bombers:
Not everyone accepts the stereotype of suicide bombers recruited by the Al
Qaeda network, as religiously-inspired haters of Western values, intent of
destroying Western civilisation. One American analyst says it's too
simplistic to assume Islamic fundamentalism in the central cause.

Military dogs bit at least two detainees at Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison, one
severely enough to require stitches, witnesses testified Tuesday at a

intelligence officer at the prison, one witness said.

Iraqi security forces, largely Shiite in composition, represent the
Shiite-dominated government of Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari. They are

Cause and consequence :
Two million people, including a vast number of British Muslims, took to the
streets against the invasion of Iraq. Blair preferred the warmth of the
White House's embrace. Ignore the marchers and you risk igniting the
murderers. If the alternative to terrorism is democracy, then it is time
the people of Britain and Iraq alike were listened to and the occupation ended.

John Pilger: Blair Is Unfit To Be Prime Minister:
The bombs of 7 July were Blair's bombs. Blair brought home to this country
his and Bush's illegal, unprovoked and blood-soaked adventure in the Middle
East. Were it not for his epic irresponsibility, the Londoners who died in
the Tube and on the No 30 bus almost certainly would be alive today.

Police Response More Frightening Than the Killing
LONDON, Jul 26 (IPS) - That an innocent Brazilian was shot dead on the
London Underground is tragic; but the near justification of that killing by
the police is frightening.
The police have now openly declared a shoot-to-kill policy, and declared
that they can shoot to kill just on suspicion. And that suspicion arising
not from reliable intelligence or anything like that, but from just how
someone may behave somewhere.

Three forgotten lessons
Israeli leaders tell their Palestinian counterparts they must enforce law
and order. They state that this is a pre-condition not only for peace but
for maintaining a viable Palestinian entity. The Israelis stress the
particular importance of enforcing the law upon militant armed extremists
who do not accept the authority of the duly-elected government. They call
upon the Palestinians to draw a lesson from the `Altalena` crisis.
