Paula Dear wrote a lovely, heart-rending piece for the BBC yesterday, about the memorial held for the victims of last year's suicide attack in London. However, Ms. Dear's piece was marred by the inevitable whining Muslim who makes it about them, their lives, their culture. It is a selfishness that has presented itself time and again in the nearly five years since Septmebr 11, 2001.

Nearby a group of young Muslim men from Nottingham were handing out yellow and black wristbands. They each wore a tee-shirt bearing the slogan 'We're Not Afraid - Beat Terrorism'.

They work on their fledgling campaign - which is separate from the website of the same name - in their spare time, and aim to raise money for the London Bombings Relief Fund, Red Cross and Unicef.

"We're also fed up with the image being portrayed of Muslims and we want people to know not all of us are bad," says Suhail Butt, 28.

While I can appreciate the concept of his wristband program (and as a caveat, UNICEF is known to supply child-soldiers with guns, and so it is on my blacklist of aid organizations), making it about the poor Muslims who feel upset that people don't like them is an unnecessary response at a time like that.

An otherwise touching piece of news was once again ruined by multi-culti political correctness and an enduring love and concern for the enemy.
