"We're not going anywhere near that deathtrap," said terrorist Abu Musab Alwani, who masterminded the planned attack. "We are very zealous for our faith and deeply committed to our cause of ridding our holy lands of crusading infidels, but have you seen the news lately?

    It's a good start. The islamophobia could have been avoided with "we spoke with one of the terrorists who requested anonymity to protect his good name" and leaving off the bit about faith.

    Normally wouldn't have bothered since it's easy enough to google, but the other reply you received was just so sanctimonious that I wanted to provide you the link out of minor spite, lol.

    Edit: Awww, that made some very fragile people very angry, huh~?
