quote:
The vast majority of British Muslims condemn the London bombings but a substantial minority are clearly alienated from modern British society and some are prepared to justify terrorist acts.
....
six per cent insist that the bombings were, on the contrary, fully justified.
Six per cent may seem a small proportion but in absolute numbers it amounts to about 100,000 individuals who, if not prepared to carry out terrorist acts, are ready to support those who do.
Moreover, the proportion of YouGov's respondents who, while not condoning the London attacks, have some sympathy with the feelings and motives of those who carried them out is considerably larger - 24 per cent.
A substantial majority, 56 per cent, say that, whether or not they sympathise with the bombers, they can at least understand why some people might want to behave in this way.
YouGov also asked whether or not its Muslim respondents agreed or disagreed with Tony Blair's description of the ideas and ideology of the London bombers as "perverted and poisonous".
Again, while a large majority, 58 per cent, agree with him, a substantial minority, 26 per cent, are reluctant to be so dismissive.

With this many British muslims clearly on the side of terrorism (100,000 by any estimation) , I really just have a simple question - how can these numbers possibly be justified, if Islam is truly a religion of peace?
We are not talking about birth control, or other issues that Christians may disagree on. We are talking about unmitigated mass murder.

Show me a church leader who condones that (I can show you many an Islamic cleric) or perhaps membership totals within a country. If they total above 100,000, you still have not shown anything because you are drawing exclusively from a nutcase audience, whereas this poll was scientific.
