London mayor defends Muslims, carps Saudi for fueling bigotry
By: Nabil Raza
LONDON, Britain: Ken Livingstone, London Mayor, has called on
Britons Saturday not to demonize Muslims after a double car bomb plot
was foiled in the capital, amid fears of a terror threat.
At the same time he criticized Britain over its ties with Saudi
Arabia, which he said had fuelled intolerance in the past through its
Wahhabist form of Islam, creating a "major problem."
Talking to BBC Radio, he said: "In this city, Muslims are more likely
to be law-abiding than non-Muslims and less likely to support the use
of violence to achieve political ends than non-Muslims."
"They have played a good and active and growing role in creating a
multi-cultural society," he added.

better than wealth because it protects you while you have to
guard wealth. it decreases if you keep on spending it but the
more you make use of knowledge ,the more it increases . what you
get through wealth disappears as soon as wealth disappears but
what you achieve through knowledge will remain even after you."MORE
