Bigley book of condolence stolen
2004-10-12
A book of condolence opened in tribute to the murdered Iraq hostage Kenneth Bigley has been stolen. Thieves also took a framed photograph of him, candles and some sympathy cards from Birmingham Central Mosque. The book, believed to have gone on Saturday, was due to go to Mr Bigley's family to show the mainstream Muslim community's condemnation of his death. Earlier this year a book of condolence for the victims of the Madrid bombings was stolen from the same mosque.
Nice folk, ain't they?
Two condolence books gone missing from the same mosque? That's an odd coinkidink, dontcha think? And nobody knows who dunnit. If it was me, I'd check the jihadi websites. Bet they're paraded around for the camera.

#6  I know since this is the UK "Bushitler" did it.
As for the leadership of the mosque having no idea? Sure they don't.

#5  Oops-- now the jihadists are in trouble. Saw off a man's head, and you get an ocean of tears and a mountain of teddy bears.

But steal our condolence books, and you're REALLY in trouble. Watch Mighty Albion rise Samson-like from its slumber. Thieves of British grief, beware.

#3  Just their way of getting ready for Ramadan. Maybe they are allowed to eat paper during the fast days.

#2  They didn't just steal the book, they destroyed the whole tribute. Of course the Muslims will blame "the far-right".
