(41,460 posts)I do have a vested interest in Europe, and I have no tolerance for extremists on ANY side. I was on the London underground less than 24 hours before the July 2005 bombing; on the day when it happened I was FRANTIC with anxiety about not being able to contact my mother who could well have been in the wrong place that day - fortunately she was safe and sound and not using public transport. I don't like religious nuts of any sort, Christian or Muslim, and have no more tolerance (possibly less) for the Islamist hate-preachers than I do for Ian Paisley or Fred Phelps.
But to blame the Balkan War on Muslim immigrants is to blame people (Bosnians) who were mainly VICTIMS.And they were not in any case immigrants.
And I know plenty of British Muslims, and most of them don't like the extremists any more than I do - just as most Catholics don't like the IRA bombers, and most Protestants don't like Ian Paisley or Pat Robertson.
