Islam ‘not to blame’ insists ISIS victim’s brother

David Haines ' borther Mike

The brother of British hostage David Haines murdered by Islamist militants issued Sunday a tearful video statement about growing religious radicalization in which he quoted a verse from the Quran.

“We are seeing more and more radicalization in every walk of life. It is not a race, religion or political issue, it is a human issue,” Mike Haines told British media.

His voice breaking with emotion, Haines read out a passage from the Koran saying: “Since good and evil cannot be equal, repel thou evil with something that is better.”

Not to blame

He added: “The Muslim faith is not to blame for ISIL, nor is it the fault of people of Middle Eastern descent.”

David Haines  BEHEADING 2Aid worker Haines was kidnapped in Syria in March 2013.

His murder was revealed in a video released late on Saturday by militants from Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) – also referred to as ISIL – an extremist group that has taken over a vast territory in Iraq and Syria in recent months.

“ISIL are extremely dangerous and pose a threat to every nation, every religion, every politics, every person,” Mike Haines said, adding that British jihadists who return to the country should “face the consequences of their actions.”

He had earlier issued a written statement paying tribute to his brother, who he said was “most alive” when doing aid work.

          Well, if you’re in the USA you don’t understand our ‘gun laws’ for sure. :-))))))))
          I figure you must be one of the ones driving the Canadian dollar down too.
          We are LIVING on the recycling …. China BUYS Metal.
          You could send them the lead, I’m sure.
          (we are into Nickel-Cadmium batteries …. no lead OR acid for faces)
          And the good Germans made a list of what they decided to send, as you will see. Open and free information flow. We are calculating the recycle possibility. Don’t forget to collect for us …. copper is a premium … 😉

    2. Islam is not to blame but there are those who call themselves Muslims who are to blame as well as those devils who support them with arms, training, and money. Nowadays, it seems that the worst enemies of Islam are the Muslims themselves. May God rest the soul of this wronged man whose only guilt is that he is a humanitarian.

        the positive side is that no muslim supports these western backed criminals. i know muslims from all across the world including turkey, iraq, syria, lebanon, afghanistan, pakistan, iran n egypt n they r all very critical about this kind of crazy ideology exported to the region by the west.

          They were certainly critical of girls who wanted to go to school. Right?
          Wonderful that there is such ‘critique’ available ….

            i really appreciate that u brought that up bcos the primary goal of the west is that the middle easterners r too damn busy killing each other and thereby neglect education which is the key word for any progress… in short: i fully understand those girls.
            why do u think they ruined syria which is (was) the only arab nation wid free education to all its citizens?

            I’d think the ones who actually got education were the ones who began to ask for some free speech. I will admit readily that it is a #1 problem for a despot.
