Home Secretary John Reid held a press conference to talk about Muslim extremists and how they were brainwashing children into becoming suicide bombers.

How strange it is that the only 'muslim' to attend this private press conference by Press Association invite only was Trevor Moore, a complete fruitcake who chooses to call himself Abu Izzadeen.

It wasn't as if he was incognito. Dressed in arab garb, he must have been obvious to even the most simple policeman or security guard and without an invitation or press pass he would not have been allowed into the meeting, unless he was wanted there.

Was he searched? You would think that a person justifying suicide bombing would have been seen as a potential threat to the Home Secretary, but no, he just walked into the room and heckled on cue. It was almost as if the entire thing was scripted.

It seems extremely likely that he was invited for a purpose. Reid was railing against muslim extremists and sounded as demented as Dr. Goebbels ranting against the Jews, but how convenient, there was a 'muslim' extremist all dressed up and making all the right noises to justify Reid's reactionary nonsense.

The BBC's response was similary single minded. Did they interview a selection of muslims to get a rounded view of Reid's speech? No, they interviewed Trevor Moore, who continued his unintelligible rant in a way that appeared to justify Reid's policy.

Where I live and work means that I know a lot of muslims. I have yet to meet any who doesn't think that Trevor Moore is a fruitcake, and while many are appalled by Government foreign policy, most are equally appalled by the acts of terror that have been done in the name of Islam.

There are very real concerns about the Government's foreign policy and they are not 'muslim' concerns, they are very real human rights concerns. They are being surpressed by branding an entire community on the basis of the ravings of a few demented loonies.

Dr. Goebbels may be long dead, but his methods are alive and well.
