Taimur Abdulwahab al-Abdaly showed little interest in religion as he was growing up in Sweden, channelling his energies into sport and partying.

But after he began attending Bedfordshire University in Luton “everything changed” as he became a strict Muslim with increasingly extremist views, even naming his baby son Osama in honour of the al-Qaeda mastermind Osama bin Laden.

On Saturday he blew himself up in a street full of Christmas shoppers in Sweden’s first suicide attack, after recording a message which promised to kill “your children, daughters, brothers and sisters”

"....The mosque did not pass on concerns about Abdulwahab to the police....

"... Abdulwahab travelled to Syria two years ago, where it is believed he was trained in explosive techniques.

If Muzlims living in Western countries travel to the Middle East, Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, etc., they should never be allowed to return to the West, and they should be required to live out their lives in Muzlim countries.

We should deport every last one of them... islam is not compatible with America... in any way at all... and anyone saying otherwise, does not know what islam is truly about. Read the koran and read what modern islam states... and that is all that it takes to prove my contention.

No it’s not. It is reasonable and self-preserving.

“If the United States wants seriously to eradicate terrorism, the first capital that should be pounded with cruise missiles is London,” Colonel Gaddafi said on the Arabic satellite news channel al-Jazeera.

“It is the shelter of terrorism,” he added, referring to charges that Islamic militants suspected of violence are protected by Britain’s policies on political asylum.

Banning Islam globally is the only way to ever stop terrorism.

HOW DARE EUROPEAN SOCIALIST SOCIETIES AND THEIR DOCTRINE OF ENCOURAGING THE IGNORANT TO FREELY EXPRESS ANTICHRISTIAN BIGOTRY FORCE SOME OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS TO BECOME MURDERING SUICIDAL ASSHOLES!?!?!?

Exactly. England didn’t do it, Islam did. Apparently, this guy even got kicked out of the notorious Luton mosque in England (a radical mosque that’s under surveillance and doesn’t want to attract attention to itself).

But Islam is a violent terrorist cult and always has been, and until it is wiped off the face of the earth, it always will be.

Expel Muslims from Britain. That will eliminate the source of radicalization. It's not Britain. It's Islam.

If the family expects the general public to believe they really blame "Britain" for his radicalization, since “everything changed” as their became a strict Muslim in Luton,
"with increasingly extremist views, even naming his baby son Osama in honour of the al-Qaeda mastermind Osama bin Laden. . ."
then surely they'll identify all the imams who influenced their impressionable son. And once the imam's and mosque members who had so much influence over their gullible son, this outraged family will assist the Queen's service in prosecuting, convicting and then support the deportation of all these influential pious evil-doers. . .Right? When citizens of the UK witness Luton being cleansed of the terrorist influence with the aid of this family, then we'll begin to believe ever evasive existence of the moderate muslim. Until then, pound sand.

Makes you think......how is it that these suicide bombers have gotten so amaturish since 9/11 to the point where they can barely blow up themselves let alone anything or anyone else, where 9/11 was a perfectly detailed run that was flawless in it’s execution. Sounds like they had some help?

The Swedes need to summon their inner Viking and go Berzerker on the Mohammedans.

I agree. Realistic pragmatism is the best approach. You must articulate your point from an intellectual perspective though, or it will get lost in the noise, and never see the light of day.

How can you articulate your point intellectually? Say this person was born in Europe. When a lib asks you the question why they should be treated any differently from a 10-100th generation european, what do you say, and how do you say it such that you show that your view comes from a heart of compassion and care about our world (which you MUST)?
