   Not in the slightest. Some points:   
      
   1 Osama Bin Laden and his upper echelon colleagues are all upper-middle   
   class playboys who decided to become intensely conservative.   
      
   2 The Muslims who will kill the next batch of Londoners will be second   
   generation people who have never been poverty struck and who have been the   
   beneficiaries of greater economic fairness - much greater - simply by their   
   parents wanting to escape the serfdom of the Islamic world and make it big   
   here. Their children, rather like certian choleric Boston Irishmen, get   
   certain romantic ideas and - via the koran - a furious desire to punish the   
   debaucheries of the West. (I'm often tempted to ask the many Muslim   
   tobacconists I encounter their views about paying for their Mercedez-Benzes   
   with money made from selling alcohol and pornography - my old man maintains   
   that porn did not arrive in suburban tobacconists until the Indians and   
   Pakistanis cornered the market in them. AND BEFORE YOU think ill of my old   
   man I might add that he was - like most Englishmen - a natural   
   multiculturalist until the Left made it compulsory and declared its   
   intention of dismantling his country and culture - even the Germans couldn't   
   do that, not even with the V2 rocket that blew his house to pieces in   
   Peckham in 1944 (while he and his mother crouched in a Morrison shelter   
   *inside*) but sure enough, the Left got stuck in, and are slowly and surely   
   finishing the job off.   
      
   3) The 7th July terrorists were not from poverty. One of them left an   
   enormous sum in his will.   
      
      
   Marx sneered at Christianity, but Islam would have given him the night   
   sweats.
