Of late, have been surfing a lot on www.bbc.co.uk where I cannot help but notice that whenever there is an terror related inncident somewhere in the world, the word MUSLIM is added.
Such as -
'The seriel killer, a strict Muslim' or 'the bomber, a Muslim'.
Do you see what I mean?
Anyway, it got me thinking over a coffee, surely this is a bad thing as it is a distinct minority of so called Extremist intent on killing us all.
I mean - you dont read about an average English murder where the press write 'the killer, a christian faithfull' or 'kidnapper is born again christian..'. Nor 'agnostic double murderer on the run again'.
Ultimately, has the word MUSLIM become zeitgeist for the 2000's, along with i-pod and terror and is the press only making it worse?
What do you reckon. Personally, less of it would be a good thing. Lets report the facts and drop the word Muslim. Cat Stevens has never offended me.
Rant over.
