Thanks for this, I knew about the many muslims who have probably died alongside the other humans in New York. I didn't know about the British people though. I will add them to my growing list of people to remember. The scary thing is that this anger could lead to more unnecessary suffering. In a country with less military power this would not be possible. I truly hope that Mr. Bush listen to his heart on this one. If he really does, then I think justice is possible.
: None of the US coverage of the event seems to mention that over 100 Brits have been confirmed dead, hundreds more are missing and as many as 1 in 10 of the dead may be Brits. Other countries have lost a great many people too. This, some of you may be surprised to know, includes Moslem countries such as Lebanon. If it had happened elsewhere I don't think Americans would show much of it on TV or show the same anger.
