I don't know, I'm not feeling too charitable after that Glasgow bombing

Islamic Relief launches Action for Africa appeal. Take their case to Scottish Parliament.

Officials from British Muslim charity, Islamic Relief, have appealed to the Scottish parliament to help raise awareness of the humanitarian impact of conflict and famine in areas such as Darfur, Niger, Mali and Somalia. Makki Hamid, Islamic Relief’s Head of Africa Region, was part of the team briefing Scottish MPs after returning from Darfur, Niger and Mali.

"The situation in Darfur is chaotic - at least 20 groups are fighting each other, while the ancient reconciliation process based on the traditional tribal system has been destroyed by years of military regime,” Hamid told Adnkronos International (AKI) in an interview."Contrarily to how it is portrayed in the media, this conflict is not a religious one, such as the one in Southern Sudan, where it is Muslims against Christians. This [Darfur] is Muslims fighting other Muslims over resources and unresolved land disputes between farmers and nomads,” he said.

Oh - like that makes it different? It's still Muslim nutjobs going off. Even worse, listen to this reference to the dhimmis in Westminister.

The visit to the Scottish parliament, which was promoted by the first Muslim Scottish MP, Bashir Ahmad, included a presentation of the charity’s activities in Africa and a questions-and -answers session with a group of parliamentarians.Habib Malik, Islamic Relief’s coordinator for Scotland, welcomed the opportunity to speak at the Scottish Parliament and said this kind of initiatives should be “of inspiration for what is done down at Westminster (Seat of the English parliament).”

And get a load of this line of Islamospeak...

“Islamic charities can play a fundamental role there because they have a better understanding of people’s needs, and not only the material ones.” “We use quotes from the Koran to persuade them that Islam does not support any of their violence,” he said.

Charity begins at home. Perhaps instead of going to Africa they could use some of those quotes on the ones who are blowing all that stuff up in the UK.
