So now scared Muslims will look to their extremists for "protection". And thus the cycle of violence is perpetuated.

I think we can safely assume that the building was adequately insured.

nudge nudge wink wink.

Hang on if arson was the cause and terrorists were the culprits, would the buildings insurance be valid?

I'd be very careful who I accuse if I were the preacher man in charge.

just the start unfortunately ,extreme Muslims have started to awaken a beast that could crush Muslims whether they are decent or not. A sad

The BBC are probably showing film footage because it is an event that will possibly be considered newsworthy.

Is it not a little early to be deciding how it happened and who did it?

My guess would be that Abdul the Great burnt the naan bread.

Strange it should be in Muswell Hill though. I thought that area was inhabited solely by lefty CND types.

Mind you, it must be twenty or thirty years since I've been there.

It is quite possible that the brioght sunlight has been shining through a glass paperweight, or similar, and set fire to a copy the Koran.

One wonders if the other 999 have such paperweights equally badly located.

This is seriously alarming!

It's 10 years since the Bradford riots, which went on for several nights.

In all of the circumstances, it is surprising that it didn't happen again before now, but I can't help thinking
that when it kicks off again, wherever that is, that it will escalate beyond control!

God help us! Oh sorry, that won't work will it?

On behalf of England, I would like to thank the English Defence League for their valiant defensive effort in destroying the Al-Rahma Islamic Centre and thereby quelling the imminent Muslim threat that it represented. This was no act of mindless violence, but a tactical, nay surgical strike, and I'm sure the whole country will sleep sounder tonight.

In the interests of balance, the guys who beheaded the soldier are an order or two of magnitude up on the f*ckwit scale; don't think I can't see that.

If they can't fabricate the evidence to point to arson, they'll say the fire was caused by an electrical fault.

That's how the fire brigade compile the numbers of fires that are caused by faulty electrics.
If they can't find any evidence they simply guess it was electrical.

You clearly know fook all on the subject, if no single identifiable source has been found after locating the seat of the fire, excavating it, forensic samples, witness statements, fire and smoke patterns and even reconstruction in some cases then a report will contain the percentage chance of one or more possible sources.....not 'oh well stick it down as electrical Dave'
Report Burton-Brewers • June 5, 2013 8:01 PM BST
it's an inside job. Torch it, spray EDL to divert attention then they'll get a sympathetic hearing when they apply to rebuild it as a mosque rather than a community centre.
Report Dr Crippen • June 5, 2013 8:19 PM BST
121.5, what a load of bullshine, somebody's been having you on.

In most cases the place is burnt to a cinder, there's nothing left to test.

They'll certainly go over this one with a fine toothcomb, but normally they know it's a waste of time trying to find the cause of a fire.
Okay if an empty petrol can is found nearby they'll issue a statement saying that foul play is suspected, but that's usually as far as they get.
''Oh put it down as an electrical fault, we don't want to be here all day.''

That’s the real world 121.5, not what you see on the telly in detective programmes.

Hmmm. Is this how chit chat hung the Bristol landlord? So many evil theories in the mind of some posters. Makes you wonder why, dunnit?
The professional chappies will tell us soon enough what caused it...not that it should be of any real public interest unless there is a case for arson. In that case the arsonists should be jailed for twenty years.

We have just had two horrendous cases of people dying in fires that were deliberately started. You NEVER know that nobody is in danger in these circumstances.
