Islam is not a race, you and I could decide to become a muslim for example. It was not racist.
Attacking muslims for their beliefs is just as much a terror attack as radical Muslims attacking westerners/non muslims for theirs.

Correct.
At the moment we don't know the background. However, if this nutter was part of/influenced by right wing extremists then it's exactly the same as the Muslim extremists.

Totally correct. This is not a war between Muslims and Westerners or Black against White. This is a war, like all wars, of Hate against Hate, between extremists with an agenda and ordinary people. The more we pander to the extremists agenda the more we support them.

It's all well and good saying we should 'stand together' and not let people 'divide' us but when there's one Muslim terrorist attack after another people are going to think about striking back.
Who ever carried out this attack will be severely punished and all those connected with him will be brought to justice. In other words we sort out our dirty washing. The Muslim community have to start doing their bit by rooting out bad in their communities.
For too long they have got away with playing the victim card and that has to change.

Well I don't agree with YOU!
The guy in pictures looks a complete nutter and having supported City for years I've met quite a few!
If he turns out to be a sofisticated well motivated terrorist then I will change my opinion.

There is nothing to agree or disagree with. He was clearly targeting muslims (not a race) due to their beliefs and the recent heavily politicised attacks. It is terrorism by definition. Terrorism has nothing to do with sophistication.
Terrorism
ˈtɛrərɪzəm/
noun
the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims.

Trouble is that sounds dangerously close to appeasement which has failed every time it has been tried.

Your sympathy and concern for the victims is touching.
Finsbury Park Mosque was associated with Al Quaida radicals before 2005. Since 2005, under new leadership, it has been used as an exemplar of tolerance, inter-faith co-operation, and challenges to radicalisation.

It's emphatically not appeasement in fact it's the opposite. Appeasement is giving in to the terrorists by fighting fire with fire which plays exactly into their hands. The only way to defeat this evil is to stand shoulder to shoulder and root out the evil purpertrators. They play on our fears, we cannot let them win.
