London Attacked!!

Reading through the daily newspaper, I came across the London bombing story- ‘4 kids were on their way into Luton station’ – was the picture of the day. These are the so-called terrorists who sacrificed their youth or even worst -their life for the struggles of others. In the past few days Tony Blair and his best friend Bush are trying so hard to promote their plan to stop this kind of attack- what will they do? Bomb any nation that can’t fight back…make sure it’s a Muslim country coz it is easier to explain once the world question their move. I’m not an extremist but I need to make my stand, killing the innocent is wrong! It doesn’t matter who did it, let it be the terrorist killing civilians or the coalition forces killing the innocent in Iraq (it could be a mistake but Bush you’ve got take the responsibility) it’s just not right.
Why don’t we look at the root of this problem, giving a solution would be inappropriate without defining the problem on the first place. The terrorists are not so keen on destroying the civilization or the western people just for fun, it’s the western and the American’s policy that makes all this happen. For so long the Palestinian struggle in their own ground and not a single UN peacekeeping country care about them. Israeli rule the White house with their super-dollar and a crystal clear agenda of not giving back the land they took from the Palestinians and this is why they (Al-Qaeda) declared this holy war. Attacking Iraq is not a solution to this problem but it would be a strong catalyst towards the reaction of hatred and anger, which will result in more killing of the innocent.
The Malaysian press should be able to act against all this by giving a correct definition for every action. A terrorist will always be a terrorist and no different with the one in London but labeling the Chechen fighter as terrorist like the English press did is politically wrong and should be corrected. There are fighting for their independence, the same as what the Americans did long time ago. Malaysian press should be promoting the younger generation of Muslim scholar with great knowledge in both religion and real life, Prof. Tariq Ramadan who were banned in France and US should be the next personality of the week in Utusan Malaysia not akademi fantasia.
