The Prime Minister was "back-peddling" on his pledges to the Muslim community that he understood the "error of associating Islam with terrorism" and therefore he has failed on Islamophobia, argues the editorial in April 28 issue of The Muslim News. "The least we expected form Tony Blair was that he would have rejected the phrase "Islamic terrorists" and rejected the claim by Putin that there was a threat to Europe from the European Muslims. The silence of the Blair on this issue gives credence to the Huntington's Islamophobic theory, says the editorial. It is clear Putin was playing on the West's perceived fear of "Islamic threat", continues the paper. "He knew it would resonate in the West in the same way that Milosevic succeeded in ethnically cleansing of Muslims in Bosnia. He also used terms like "Islamic terrorists" and told the West that Serbia was doing a favour to the Christian world. The West stood by as Serbia massacred Bosnian Muslims and raped Muslim women in their thousands. Now the West has watched as Russia has razed most of the Chechen cities and towns to ground and massacred its populace." Tony Blair should have sent a clear message to Putin that Britain would not tolerate human rights abuses in Chechnya and on Russian Muslims and that he should not stir up hatred between European Muslims and Christians, says The Muslim News. "We hope Prime Minister will not tolerate false accusations against British citizens accused of terrorism" as alleged by Putin and would reject such accusations. "Would he have tolerated Putin's remarks if he had said the same about Jews?" the editorial asks.
