Oh you mean like : LONDON: Thousands of Muslims held a rally in London on Saturday in protest against extremism. The event in Wembley arena was led by Mohammad Tahirul Qadri of Pakistan, who gained recognition outside the Muslim world after he published a detailed fatwa against terrorism and suicide bombings last year. “I want to address those who are lost, who have a total misconception of jihad. I want to send them a message — come back to normal life. Whatever you’re doing is totally against Islam,” he told the audience, which included families with young children and students. Some Islamic scholars, including Mr Qadri, have warned that a power vacuum in North Africa and the Middle East could lead to militant and extremist groups gaining ground in upcoming elections caused by the so-called Arab Spring. “If these elements come into power, it will be a big disaster,” Mr Qadri said. He said his message is primarily aimed at people who are on the edge of being radicalised — not those who had already been “brainwashed”. His organisation, Minhaj-ul-Quran International, said the event was attended by some 12,000 people and was broadcast to several countries.

So that's social media campaigns, bus advertising campaigns, marches that thousands attend, YouTube videos from high profile imams and just ordinary muslims speaking out against extremism (which in some ways is more powerful.)

Ah I see so the minute one question is answered, rather than accepting the answer you just ask another question. I presume the same thing will happen if someone successfully answers your next question. Not really a debate I'm interested in having.

Hold on, I was responding to the question "where are the fatwas?" I wasn't debating their effectiveness, simply answering the question. Presumably whelk believes they mean something or he wouldn't have asked the question.

Here pretty much admitted it at the time I believe. That's very sad if she was quite young.

Wasn't Roger beeks outed as a cop on there?

Sorry whelk but youre wrong on this one. The links I've posted above are pretty conclusive. Numerous fatwas have been issued against isis.

Is she the one who had the barney over the cats? Or am I thinking of someone else? I didn't realise she was that old if it was her.

And now I see you have clarified your comments. I withdraw my previous post, I can see what you mean now and I mostly agree though I do believe there are regressive bits of Islam that I would also like to see dealt with (though that isn't terrorism related.)

Tbf when you say it's a problem for all religions it sounds like the standard response we have had on here thus far. When someone acknowledges that terrorism is a problem with all religions but that it is particularly problematic within Islam at the moment, they are leapt on by the usual suspects who say things that no one has denied like "you realise that Christian have committed terrorist acts in the past" or "there are loads of terrorists who aren't Muslim." it's undeniable that Islam has a problem with extremism currently that other religions do not have to the same extent in 2016. Apologies if that was not what you were saying but that's how it came across to me.

Fantastic news. I love saving loads of cash on the odd occasion I take a taxi in London. The few times a year I take one in Southampton, I'll be making sure it's an uber.

I agree with that. Whilst I disagree with the idea that there has been no backlash (as there clearly has been one even though it definitely could have been bigger and more widespread) that does not mean that there isn't clearly a problem within Islam at the moment- a fact agreed with by many other Muslims and those within the government in Iraq amongst others. I'm not sure why it's controversial to point that out. Yes terrorism, is an issue within every religion etc but it's Islam that has the biggest problem with it in April 2016.

I made no noises about allowing anything. I simply stated that you're incredibly dull and repetitive droning on and on and coming across as a bit thick. You've already said you're going to continue to do it regardless so I'll keep pointing it out no matter if you tell me to mind my own business or not (the forum is the business of everyone who posts on it).

I'm not judging anything, I'm stating facts.

That's rubbish. My business pays tax like most other people and I don't pay in cash to avoid it. Your attitude is why things like the NOTW hacking scandal occurred.

There were quite a few rumours swirling round when we went through our bad run. Not sure how true they were though.

We were a 'ringleader' apparently. Not sure how that works when one vote is the same as anyone elses but u suppose it makes a good newspaper headline.

Me for one.

Here you go again with your mind- numbing replies. Utter tool.
