BBC Whitewash? Armed Forces Imam: UK 'Not At War With Islam'

Britain's armed forces first Muslim chaplain, Imam Asim Hafiz

BBC: The British armed forces' first Muslim chaplain says there is no conflict between being a Muslim and fighting for Britain.

Imam Asim Hafiz also challenged Muslim extremists who claimed the UK and US were waging a war against Islam.

Referring to people like the men who killed Fusilier Lee Rigby, he said: "These individuals are misled. They are not educated. They haven't necessarily studied the Koran... and have no appreciation of what the faith is about.

"To consider an unarmed individual in a time of peace to be a legitimate target for murder is absolutely unacceptable." Watch BBC video » | Monday, January 13, 2014
