We'll be digging toddlers' limbs out of London rubble before a major public figure comments on this

Astonishingly, more British Muslims are now telling pollsters they support Al Qaeda's terrorist attacks on the United States than are expressing support for the liberation of Iraq.

More than one in 10 British Muslims back al Qaida-style terror strikes on the United States, a poll has revealed.

... Attacks on the US by al Qaida or other groups were viewed as justified by 13% of the 500 British Muslims questioned.

Another 15% said they did not know whether such attacks are wrong or right.

Far fewer, 10%, said Prime Minister Tony Blair and US President George Bush were right to go to war.

You read that right: 28%. I'm speechless.

UPDATE: Laban Tall gets out his calculator: "Let me see, 13% of 1.6 million - that makes 208,000 terrorism supporters living in the UK." It took 19 to bring about 9/11.
