Could rumbled around for years but elders deny the saying they report any extremist views including those of the baby to the authorities. But it turns out back in one thousand nine hundred ninety five to the soviets left afghanistan at least fifty jihadist fighters did appear in didsbury mosque many were libyan their influence is being felt here ever since and now thats being repeated all over again during the arab spring in libya in twenty eleven drives of young british libyan men went off to fight and overthrow gadhafi britain led the nato intervention with air strikes but it needed Ground Forces to do the real work men like our craft who went from manchester to fight. Why were the british authorities so relaxed about people going off to fight him and i know theyre going for a good cause. Yes i think the tiriel this ideology at the time that. We couldnt get rid of kadafi ourselves through the mirror of it let the libyan have to rise up first. We now know some became radicalized modifying islamist militias so was it a mistake to let them go and then let them come back it was a mistake it is to mistake they made when people come back they didnt get their brains examined and checked out i mean everybody has been to a war zone and its some type of psychotherapy to find out if hes one of the vanguard or not not everyone who goes off to fight wants to bring the violence back home to britain but Counterterrorism Forces cant always tell the difference and that carries enormous risks for countries like the u. K. Its like a guys felt isolated. Between their home. And the ok and whats up to the community cannot accept about home like on the call of white libyans on it and we had to call them and its just mystified as to what i was. A lack of so. Easy with the understanding was the one with hopes a lot of these reporters are going their heads britains semi five is identified twenty three thousand suspects of interest posing a terrorist threat but Security Experts say that is just the tip of the iceberg. Victories against isis on the ground in the middle east have led to a heightened state of alert in the west and when attacks do happen Security Services play catch up that means acting fast to arrest and detain suspects. I mean and i come from the right and ive lived in the u. K. Oh. Its its hard. To rage in the way i am and its just repeating itself completely in my head like. Not being able to sleep two p. M. Constantly and youre like but its like my brain is just on yeah the man is terrifying she has never told the story of this right until now if you say no more ok really hit and i was kind of semi awake and just out of nowhere all of a sudden i just hey and massive bang. It was so loud you couldnt even tell where it was coming from. Downstairs and i can see peapod just storming into the house its sunday twenty i could my six days after the suicide bomb went off at the arena across manchester and the region Security Service is a conducting counterterrorism right desperate to understand if so many baby was acting alone or as part of a network. There was turning up the stands and i just the way they looked in my my bag. And even if he. Him out is at home alone his street is cordoned off she had gone to the same colleges in the baby but she says she had no contact and no relationship with him one of them came in he was under arrest suspected terrorist. I was just looking at. Life. What are you saying like. How how am i spect a terrorist. I didnt know what to say i dont know what to do. Of the twenty two arrested in these raids across manchester not a Single Person was charged. You could have just knocked on the door who would have opened you would have asked as many questions as you want to had would have been. Thats. The British Government wants greater powers to conduct raids and detain terrorism suspects it also wants muslim communities to play a bigger role in monitoring extremism does your experience make you less likely to do that. No i wouldnt actually become. I mean if especially with someone he was for four to five times so we kind of raise awareness of this person and has these extreme views so in a way we are great and we are kind of you know speaking out central to solving this problem of radicalization in the west is the need for Security Services to build confidence and trust with the muslim communities getting that right is tricky because its exactly those relationships that come under pressure every time theres an attack it also means looking at root causes like the ideology that underpins groups like isis when they preach and recruit and that means talking about saudi arabia. Since the one nine hundred sixty s. The saudis are said to sponsor a multimillion dollar effort to export wahhabi islam across the islamic world including to muslim communities in the west wahhabi islam is a strict and a virtually conservative interpretation of the faith and in the u. K. That saudi money has built mosques and islamic schools which in turn have played host to extremist preachers and the distribution of extremist literature. None of this would be a surprise to the British Government downing street has been sitting on its own report for more than six months which details the foreign funding of terrorism and extremism its publication is deemed too sensitive for a government relying on the sale of billions of dollars worth of arms to its saudi ally. So what does this mean in reality if youve not the time to start claiming victim hood this is the time to be reflective and say we need to take them ownership and actually collectively as a society we need to stand up and address this problem i mean alone is a politician on the local council she runs a think tank and shes a muslim. Shes prepared to say want few others will the conservative cultural practices with the interface could be connected to terrorism there is a rise of fundamentalism across the globe and actually if you want to say that these people are misrepresenting our faith then weve got to show that our faith isnt what these people claim to be which is a very black and white very politicized islam today i mean it is taking us to one of the local mosques. I would just cover up and this would be sufficient so what are you going to find out now with women are allowed in yeah i just like them see them space for women and im kind of what they do and you know kind of. Interact with us right on cue the local imaam turns up to greet its. Going to seep out of an affectionate go before the motion is given to you before going to watch nobody but you know that both of. You to be with you teachers and friends you know you know you know many years ago if you dont know anybody. We are invited in but without the camera were told women are welcome here but in truth there is no designated prince place for women yeah it was for nothing because im boiling that. Hes very friendly very open and you know i mean he they are they want to be inclusive and they want people to know about it and you can see that if you want to make misrepresent the mosque or the faith but again didnt shake my hand didnt make much i contact with me someone is that matter why is that important because there are some who would say. This is. The faith is practiced here you know you know what matters because actually that may be how the faith is practiced here but then people use that to bash islam with in terms of you press your women that you dont believe in gender equality how does that make you feel about your faith you always feel that you are second class citizen you know we wouldnt tolerate separate entrances for blacks so much. You know and yet somehow we kind of turn a blind eye. Its probably just. I just have to go to. The question of who owns and defines islam has always been a difficult one for a faith with no Central Authority but for muslims living in the west vince a few seem able to confront that anyway. You need to be doing something we need to act on these issues and not be seen to kind of take them for granted that they just happen and we dont do anything to help. Someone is a mother of two and a Community Psychologist together she and her friends are writing letters and poems to the people of manchester you have to sign not place that brings out the healing you only knew the love he knew from history and. We wanted to come together and do a project called love letters to manchester so were writing messages from all of us we plan on going into the city center and basically giving out the scrolls that weve created here and i think the biggest problem in terms of these issues has always been you know that on my radicalization of how easy it is for young people to call and access incredibly dangerous people so would you put that sort of extremist online content is just one altogether from the internet yeah i mean i dont see why it should be an online spaces if its extremist and its full of hatred it shouldnt be on my pretty hard for any parent explaining and interpret in terrorist attacks to children is a challenge and for muslim brothers theres an added dimension my eldest came to me i think she must have been reading some comments on the various newspaper channels on the line and she said to me i can understand why they hate us now and i was like you know that really. Sorry. I just dont know how to kind of deal with from you know given how that reassurance that you know that this is nothing to do with us this isnt about us you know this this is about an individual whos psycho you know nobody could do this unless they were completely unhinged but i think theres a lot of work for us to do around young peoples identities in this country especially when theyre made to sometimes feel that they dont actually belong here but actually they do and thats what we need to be doing and. Our were doing a project called love letters to manchester and were just giving out people from manchester a scroll with some letters that were written by libyan women from manchester and girls with some candles and just some sweets for. Us. I came here to find out what happens after the terrorists and what we found is a government demanding difficult and embarrassing conversation eighty one remaining silent on the influence of saudi money and the fundamentalists have been expert. About him that we have a love that we have a liberal with fellow muslims who genuinely want to engage and difficult to try to deplore the tribunal but still struggle to confront questions of the who defines their own fight for the house and the Libyan Community to say we love manchester and hope you have a lovely day bank feet fake and in manchester we found the city still divided on the solution but in both grief and in spirit you know it. We are witnessing around the world this hungry money which is only looking at how to make the next profit devastating economies devastating ecosystems putting a price on the protection of nature Green Economy is sound good but it was all about privatized sation of nature should our environment be for sale what were trying to do this destroyed people to stabilize the country by giving them a financial incentive to do that pricing the planet at this time on aljazeera.
