Apart from those doing them claiming they were in the name of Islam and Allah
That said point accepted that they are not reflective of the beliefs of the vast, vast majority of Muslims in this country or most Muslims interpretation of the Koran.
You can't divorce them entirely from Islam though because they were carried out by Muslim extremists/fanatics and the sad fact is that there will be some other people of the same faith who do share their warped view, just as there are fanatics and extremists in any religion.
On that note I saw Bennett getting slated last night but don't really see too much wrong with the notion that people who hate our country so much to the extent they want to commit acts of terrorism and kill innocent citizens should not be welcome here. Funny how so many of these fanatics hate the UK but don't seem in a great rush to go and live in the delightful Afghanistan. That is in no way the same as saying Muslims or any other particular religion or nationality should all sling their hook!
