  1. myth of islamic unity exposed once again,it is pure economics and commerce my dear Islamists,which is unifying factors.religion is purely a personal affair between the Almighy and the human being.

    If relgion had been so unifying,then there had been blood letting in Karachiand rest of Pakistan,,Iraq,Iran,Afghanistan,Somalia,Syria,Libya etc etc etc all part of Musilm Umah

  2. Looks like hate against Pakistanies is turning violent, blame local Saudies who are above the lae, why target poor Africans in this apartheid kingdom?

  3. they were African nationals as clearly mentioned. and what thw hell mazhab and islamic unity has to do wit this.
