to Angel at Woman Honor Thyself:
The new UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown in a BBC TV interview on Sunday did not feel it necessary to mention the word "Muslim" or "Islam" even once in regard to recent events in London and Glasgow and has even instructed his team – including new Home Secretary Jacqui Smith – that the phrase "war on terror” is to be dropped.
So here is just another average day, with no "War on Terror" going on, nothing to say about "Muslims" or "Islam":

Yemen: We were warned of al-Qaida attackYemeni security officials were warned about a possible al-Qaida attack, but said Tuesday they did not think it would include the suicide bombing that killed a group of Spanish tourists visiting a remote temple.
A regional official blamed the terrorist group for Monday's attack, which killed seven Spaniards and two Yemenis at the temple linked to the ancient Queen of Sheba. Governor Arief al-Zoka said the "security apparatus are chasing the plotters" and that "al-Qaida is behind it."

Nigeria is minding its own business, letting Christians Xtians live in peace:

Thailand Religion of Peace slaughter updateThe following is the list of attacks made in Thailand by Muslim terrorists, predominately in the south of the country from 8-Jun-06 onwards. It is an update of my original, longer post. So far there are a staggering 57 attacks in my list.

I'm happy to hear from anyone with a link to a site where the UN has criticised Islamic terrorists in Thailand. I've searched the UN archives and can't see anything.
27-Jun-07 A roadside bomb killed three people and wounded 17 in Thailand’s rebellious Muslim south as they were buying food on Wednesday, police said.
24-Jun-07 Suspected Muslim insurgents in southern Thailand fatally shot two paramilitary rangers and two Buddhists, then set their bodies on fire in two separate incidents on Sunday, police said.
23-Jun-07 Three teenage boys were killed and a Buddhist man slain and his body set on fire in separate attacks in Thailand’s restive southern provinces, police said Saturday.
22-Jun-07 Seperatist militants in southern Thailand shot a Muslim man and then partially severed his head, while the nation’s junta leader was visiting the region, police said today. The man, a 29-year-old local government official, was returning from evening prayers late Thursday when he was ambushed by suspected insurgents in Narathiwat province, police said.
19-Jun-07 A bomb exploded at a busy teashop in southern Thailand on Monday, wounding 13 people, police said. The bomb, hidden under a tree by the teashop near a government school in Yala province’s Bannang Sata district, seriously wounded four people, said police Lt. Yothin Wanthawee, who blamed suspected Muslim insurgents for the attack.
