Confused!!!
So are you suggesting that it's unfounded to associate Islam with terrorism when the likes of Abu Hamza and many such clerics, who had a large following in the UK, preach and teach terrorists, and the London and Bali bombers all claimed to be acting in the name of Islam - they will know you by the company you keep and your actions.
Trying to a bit of smoke and mirrors after evidence in the Mumbai massacre pointed to an Islamic extremist group in Pakistan.
If it is true, maybe because SL made India look like sissies for not going to Pakistan to play...
Either way I hope its not true and India and Pakistan should NOT go to war!!!!
Why do people still associate the word terror with Islam?
A question was posed, and I answered.
Why do you think they wanted to kill them?
If it's India,they were succesfull in their goal,which might be no cricket in Pakistan for a loooooong time,and a possible lose of the WC games.
If you go through your post again and replace "Islam" with "Islamic Extremesm" then it may have some merit. Otherwise it is a sweeping generalisation.
and if they're found out? The risks totally out weigh the gains

Personally, I prefer to leave "Islam" and "Muslims" out of it, even though they most probably claim to be from that faith. It just makes talking here easier. They are extremists... no matter which faith they are from. I don't really get upset when people talk about the Christian extremists (such as in Malaysia and Indonesia), but then I'm not a very touchy person.
That said... maybe we should all just cool it until we do actually have more information.

Yea look i suppose they should have killed a few of them and they did not, i mean rocket launchers and grenades found and yet nobody in the team was killed.
One launcher at the bus and the whole team dead, so yea maybe it was india insuring nobody played cricket in pakistan.

I would savely assume goverments don't do illegal stuff with traceable people.These people normally don't even know the real reasons for it.
Anyways,It doesn't matter what you know,but what you can prove.
To me it looks like a revenge attack,the truth we may never know.
The international outcry is what they wanted, like when the CIA dropped the WTC you know that type of thing...
But I also dont/cant believe it to be India, and they love cricket why will they do it??? Errrrr................ how many SL players in the IPL???
Im still hoping its not India, it will just cause to much unnecessary trouble....
You not getting into the caterers grade tinfoil hat stuff now are you?WTC remember gary. It was all over the news

Are you referring to the World Trade Center attacks? How did the CIA "drop" the WTC?
