Iman from the #Southport mosque targetted by Nazis and hooligan rabble, on radio this morning, made an important point missing from most coverage.
Even if the murderer had been Muslim, that has nothing to do with Islam. By failing to say that, commentators (unwittingly?) imply that had he been Muslim it would have been OK to attack mosques.
