I feel sorry for innocent muslims in Glasgow as I think they will have become targets for revenge attacks'

I think that might be a problem, but limited hopefully. I was chatting to the Asian guys who run the shop below our apartment and they were a little concerned...especially as we are in Polockshields where the two communites live side by side.

But I think most people realise this is the work of muslims with very extreme views and not the majority, who just want to get on with life and making a living. Maybe a march 'not in my name' by the wider muslim community would be a good idea.

At least the terrorists in Glasgow were not too efficient. Seems the chap who self-immolated was none to happy about being put out.

Also having two of them, plus maybe the other 3 who have been arrested, alive will be very helpful especially if part of a bigger cell.

It is such a waste of time since at best all they are doing is making life harder for fellow muslims living in the west. As well as making people less sympathetic to some of the genuine injustices in the Middle East.

''It is the Western dommination of the Middle East that is causing the problems.''

I deeply resent this observation. How, pray tell, does it explain the bombing of night-clubs because dancing young women in attendance are perceived by islamo-nazis to be ''promiscuous''?

The latest in:

The suspects were not 'British Subjects' but were ':Middle Eastern'

Oh thank God. We can all now go back to sleep.

Gee, I wonder who was helping them in merry old England (and Scotland).

I wonder if they were 'British Subjects' who were 'Asian' or 'Middle Eastern'

Don't you people read those surverys of 'British Subjects' of Muslim persuasion who in shockingly high proportions sympathize with these murders of fellow British Subjects?

If they do not like this country, they do not have to live here. Australia has the right idea. If you want to live in Australia, you live like an Australian. This country is far too soft, we let 'people' walk all over us. To say our country deserves to be attacked is an absolute joke!! We do nothing but help other countries out. We are a country that wants world piece and to put and end to poverty, but we get nothing back. We let illegal immagrants stay in our country and scrounge off our government. What do we get for this.. Attacked! Unbelievable!!! Im proud to be Scottish our country and our people will always stick together. We will not tolerate these atacks, we will fight back and we will never be defeated.

Well Andy, you are entirely right.

Yes the Aussies do have it right.

We, in Canada have our politically correct idiots, but we don't have the absurd numbers of Muslims that you have.

I have to say that despite your demographics, I really don't understand how there are so many totally deluded people in the U. K.

You better wake up and put these people in their place and show them the door if they don't integrate and accept your values.

The Jihadist Warriors need go back to their history books, if Mohammed has not forbade history books. During WWII, the U. S., in concert with Great Britain and their allies, fought a two front war against the Germans and the Japanese, aka the 'Axis'. Shortly after VE Day, (as in Victory in Europe) the U. S. planned a massive invasion of Japan in order to end the Japanese threat. Harry Truman was the U. S. president at that time and was advised that an invasion of Japan would result in massive U. S. deaths. After due consideration Mr. Truman ordered the use of the Atomic Bomb on two cities in Japan. Shortly after the second bomb was dropped, Japan sued for peace. The lesson of those events is two fold; first, those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it; second, never forget that the U. S. will not allow, ultimately, an enemy to win against the U. S. and its Allies. The firepower available to the U. S. is unimaginable. If used in in a full scale war, it would incenerate the Mid East. Those terrorists who claim that the U. S. is a paper tiger, have forgotten the past. If they push the U. S. hard enough, they will be reminded in the harshest of terms, as were all of those long ago enemies of the U. S., Britain and their allies, that the Western world is not a paper tiger.

Also during WWII, the U. S. rounded up non-Japanese combatants and clapped them in internments camps until the war was over. That could not only happen again here in the U. S., but it could happen in other countries allied with the U. S. and against the 'forces' of Islam if it became evident that those selfsame 'non-combatants' were infiltrated with terriorists.

The forgotten dust of the Jihad Warriors will be blown into the winds of history if they continue this war!

So much talk of how the Muslims deserve it. Well, we gave it to them for ten years in Iraq before the second gulf war. We killed well over a million Iraqis through our sanctions. Most of them were children. Such was the design of George Bush Sr. and John Major. Why? Because, as most of you say, they deserve it because of what some people did a thousand years ago? What of Israels occupation of Lebannon? How many more died there for our ends? It is easy for us to forget and sweep under the carpet when it's not us that has to pay the price. Are you completely ignorant of the political forces at work in the west? You have all shown that your respect for the law extends as far as it is convenient. Now that the system of law and order is starting to break down you point the finger and scream 'rascist maniacs'. What do you call our soldiers travelling to other countries to fight wars for our politicians? Naive? Blood thirsty murderers? It all depends on your point of view and it doesn't matter. At the end of the day they are carrying out someone elses agenda. No wonder we have come to this situation. You condemn us all to a third world war (which, I might add, has been the plan of the Neocons for some time.) through your support and ignorance - support of war planned and started by the west in which the people in the third world (did you forget them?) die. How can you support that? Oh, you heard a catchy sound-bite, did you? Or do you just not give a damn?
