1. We are waiting
R ,   Israel   (05.23.13)
With all due respect, it is not for Mr. Cameron to say whether it is a betrayal of Islam. Islam's clergy and leaders should be rushing to make that declaration. If they do not, then we would have to assume that it is not a betrayal of Islam. We are waiting to hear...
2. Better not to wait
Raphael ,   Paris France   (05.23.13)
Well, don't wait too long to hear it.
3. It didn't take long...
Ameobi ,   Newcastle   (05.23.13)
For Mufti Cameron to issue a Fatwa
4. PM of UK is a spokesperson for Islam now?
Jim Tel-Aviv   (05.23.13)
Does it fall under his duty? Isn't his job the protection and welfare of British citizens? I have a question - two thugs were killing a boy in a broad daylight. 20 or so people were standing, watching and filming. Some had discussions with murderers. One woman even told them - You will never win. Is this the best Britain can do nowadays? Nobody screamed out loud to wake the whole street? Nobody even threw some object at murderers? Nobody tried to defend the victim using physical force? All they could do was filming and talking? Britannia... do you still rule the waves?
5. @1 As always ....
Reuven ,   Netanya   (05.23.13)
Religous clerics almost never condem such acts, they always call upon it and stay mum afterwards .... not only muslim clerics but jewis ones also .... The more evidence that these so called scholars and clerics should be removed from whatever post they have ...
6. Cameron is Pathetic
RJUSA ,   USA   (05.23.13)
You can't get any dumber or more pathetic than David Cameron. I couldn't draw it up. Britain can't defend itself because it threw its Judeo-Christian values out the window a long, long time ago. Beyond pathetic.
7. They still don't get it!
Mira ,   Vienna   (05.23.13)
this IS Islam!
8. WHy are European Politicians always
(05.23.13)
9. @ 4
Donald ,   Oxford UK   (05.23.13)
The two terrorists had run down the man, and haxked him to death before anyone else saw what was going on. They had guns, knives and blood dripping off their hands. The locals were not armed, or expecting this sort of thing. Not supprisngly most people were shocked and could not believe what they were seeing. Had any civilian attacked or threw things at the men, they may have been killed next. As it was, a brave lady distacted one terrorist, kept him talking so he didn't go after anyone else, until the police arrived with in minutes and shot both terrorists.
10. #4 you have a very good point on all counts
Arlene ,   north of israel   (05.23.13)
One woman was brave enough to confront them...the rest filming on cell phones. All those people against 2. OK 2 well armed fanatics, but yes something could have been thrown. They wanted to police to kill them..shaheedim... but now they will go to jail and hopefully meet some patriotic Brit cons.
11. Not Islam?! - Really??
nadav ,   tlv   (05.23.13)
Let's see: 1) The Lynch in Ramallah by so called "Palestinians", who actually ate the Israeli soldier's organs! 2) The recent eating of a Syrian soldier's heart by a Muslim rebel 3) Burtally murdering Daniel Pearl 4) 9/11 and the bombings in London and Madrid, 4) Baslan murder of RUssian children by Muslim Chechens 5) The Boston bombings by home grown muslims in the US The list is VERY long- and and now this outrageous butchering and decapitation of a British hero in broad daylight in the UK's capitol city?!? From Morocco to Mindanao, 90% of today's wars and terrorist acts are caused by Muslims or are in Muslim countries!!? Is that just a coincidence? Cameron and other democratic leaders need to re-assess whether Muslims should be allowed into our societies and whether Islam should be allowed in its current form in our neighborhoods! Geert Wilders is right, ban the Koran just like Mein Kampf is banned!
12. Cameron, the expert on Islam, pronounces it was a betrayal
Harry Wright ,   UK   (05.23.13)
of Islam. Shouldn't that be coming from the imams and the muslim hordes? I take it then that the first thing Cameron rushed to do was to shield the muslims in the midst when he should have condemned the jihadist philosophy of Islam that glorifies murder and savagery. He should be calling out Islam for what it is and promotes. When the press publishes photos with "Madman 1" and "Madman 2", that says it all.
13. NONSENSE, this attitude will not help Islam to DETOTALIRIZE.
Jerry ,   The Netherlands   (05.23.13)
14. NOT BETRAYING but showing ...
ORA ,   JERUSALEM   (05.23.13)
the real face of Islam. Why beat around the bush?
15. An eye for an eye
(05.23.13)
These animals deserve to be butchered too.
16. Cameron's Ridiculous Lie
Caleb ,   Austin, TX   (05.23.13)
Are you going to believe Cameron or your own lying eyes?
17. PERISH THE THOUGH
BEN JABO (MACHAL) ,   ISAEL   (05.23.13)
Muslim's wouldn't harm a hair on your heads, unless of course, you weren't one of them. Of course there are exceptions, where Muslim's kill one another while yelling Allah Hu Akbar There are numerous examples of their slaughtering innocent peoples, to many to list in this meager amount of space. I suggest you visit the following website "thereligionofpeace", which contains loads of information, including body counts & locations & dates
18. Keep telling yourself that...
Gav ,   USA   (05.23.13)
It's not a coincidence that 99% of all terror related murders are by OBSERVANT Muslims. The only "peaceful" Muslims are non-practicing.
19. Delusional Cameroon and Christian Britain
Arnold ,   Montreal-Canada   (05.23.13)
The muslim population has no fear of the authority because the authority does not follow Sharia. Please view the following You-tube from a few years ago. If it does not wake you up to rerality then nothing will. Not even yesterday's mutilation. British police cower in fear of the moslem mob.
20. ONLY ISLAM
John Smith ,   UK   (05.23.13)
I totally agree with no 11.Why did no one do anything? Well people thought this was a road traffic accident a terrorist with knives and machetes was totally unexpected. i think everyone was in shock.
21. Not being a Brit I mispelled it - Bollocks
Joe Fraser   (05.23.13)
22. Here's a word for Cameron - bullocks
Joe Fraser   (05.23.13)
23. WRONG AGAIN...THE DEVIL IS IN THEM
Esther ,   Selkirk Canada   (05.23.13)
ONLY SATAN COMES TO KILL-STEAL-DESTROY EVERYONE ...IT IS WRITTEN LORD GOD...WHEN WILL THEIR BLIND EYES BE OPENED??
24. @ 19. Atheist Britian
Donld ,   Oxford UK   (05.23.13)
Britain is no longer the Christian county, we have 14 million declared atheists, compared to 5 million declared christians. This has been put down to a rising level of education among the population, and the fact church services are so dull and boring.
25. INSANE IDIOTS & ATTENTION-SEEKING
Esther ,   Selkirk Canada   (05.23.13)
BOTH SHOULD HAVE BEEN SHOT DEAD ON SPOT...THESE POLICE THESE DAYS ARE A SORRY LOT
26. #20 "totally unexpected", but please
Public quartering   (05.23.13)
expect it from now on. Certainly, I wish it never happened, but Islam proves again and again that they are not headed towards peace, but death, butchering and killing. What happened to old time England when they used to quarter the bad guys? Now, it seems, the bad guys are quartering good English folks in plain daylight.
27. As Ed Said Noted
Marcohoe ,   San Francisco, USA   (05.23.13)
As Ed Said noted in his notorious 'Orientalism.' Westerners cannot say anything meaningful about the East.
28. Surreal
Tomek ,   Poland   (05.23.13)
but these two guys had a specific message. I was rather surprised how eloquent one of them was on the available clip given the circumstances. They wanted the message to get across loud and clear. They succeeded. Brits and Americans kill scores of innocents and nobody bats an eyelid. Not so when they get the taste of their own medicine.
29. Betrayal of Islam?
Jógvan ,   Faroe Islands   (05.23.13)
What Mr. Cameron is saying, is nothing but a wish. And he know that he is lying. Islam is the religon of the sword.And is the must bloody and evil religion in this world. Allah is not God, but a bloodthirsty evil demon.
30. Yes Mr. Cameron...
RichInBoston ,   Boston USA   (05.23.13)
Now all you have to do is convince the Muslims that this is a betrayal of their God. I'm sure this will go a long way at soothing a mother's eternal grief.
