    LONDON -- CBS News confirmed Tuesday that the man who blew himself up the previous night at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, was 23-year-old Salman Abedi, who was known to British authorities prior to the attack.

      The authorities in England always seem to drag their feet in IDing radical Muslims.

            The difference is that Christians who have been violent are not following Jesus; but violent Muslims are following Muhammad.

              Why don't the peaceful Muslims convince the Radical Muslims that they are not doing Allah's will and that they will end up in hell with no rewards from Allah for what they do?

                I remember years ago when a "Christian" bombed an Abortion clinic - just about every high profile Christian leader condemned the act - immediately, in the strongest terms. You just don't see the moderate Muslim leaders doing that.

                  You may be right but it depends on the interpretation. Which is open. And which is why Christians of modern time still are the cause of so much pain and suffering, even if they are not themselves violent.

                    sure, someone can "interpret" the bible or Koran any way they want to if they want to do evil. But at least in the bible, it is pretty clear that you are to love your neighbor (and enemy!), help them, and not kill them. It is equally clear in the koran that you are to kill the infidels and either force them to become muslim or destroy them.

                    The interpretations are not "open" - it is that people can misinterpret things on purpose by taking things out of context or just ignoring things altogether.

                      No, it's not. Anybody who can "interpret" the Bible as advocating violence against non-Christians is so far off base that they may as well just write their own Bible, which is what Mohammad did.

                        Imagine the surprise on the faces of the Muslim suicide bombers when they find out the 72 virgins they expect to be their reward are 72 Catholic nuns holding AK-147's.

                              Is it spelled out somewhere that the 72 virgins are female?
