Spanish Muslims have condemned Al Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden as part of the one-year anniversary of the Madrid bombings. Good.
Meanwhile, the Telegraph’s article on the subject says "The fatwa is believed to represent the first major condemnation of bin Laden by a mainstream Muslim organisation". This is utter bullshit: Muslim organisations have being queueing up ever since 9/11 to condemn Osama, Al Qaeda, and terrorist attacks. Even the fucking Taliban condemned them.
What on earth is the Telegraph doing making such a ridiculous and transparently false claim? The obvious answer is that it is defaming Muslims in the eyes of its readers, in order to spread religious hatred. However, I’ll instead charitably assume that everyone who works there is brain-damaged. This would certainly explain the paper’s continued employment of Mark Steyn.
"egregiously" is a great word, isn’t it?
