DAR AL HARB - U.K.: MOSLEMS SHOULD REMAIN UNIFIED = DON'T BREAK RANKS & HELP INFIDELS

Muslim conference calls for unity
By Ian Townsend

MUSLIMS in Oxford want to build bridges between people, not walls to separate them.
That was the message on the second anniversary of the 7/7 bombings in London and in the wake of the terror attacks last week in London and Glasgow, from a conference in St Antony's College, Oxford, on Saturday.

Chairman Imam Monawr Hussain, Muslim tutor at Eton, said: "Terrorism and extremism have nothing to offer but bloodshed, hatred and division.

"We want to build bridges between Muslims, and between Muslims and other faiths, so we can all live together. We are all British and we should take pride in that fact."

The conference, called Social Cohesion - The Oxford Paradigm, was organised by the Asian Cultural Centre and Banbury Road-based Europaeum organisation.

Europaeum spokesman Chad Frischmann said the timing of the event was purely coincidental.

He said: "It was due to take place earlier this year but had to be cancelled.

"July 7 was the only alternative date we could find. It may be appropriate but it was certainly not planned."
