Damanga Condemns the Bombings of Civilians in London

Damanga Press Release 8 July 2005

The Damanga Coalition for Freedom and Democracy strongly condemns the series of attacks on the London public transport system which left hundreds dead or injured on 7 July 2005. No cause or grievance whatsoever justifies the indiscriminate targeting of civilians. True believers in Islam, Christianity, Judaism and other heavenly religions value and protect the life of innocent people regardless of their religion, race, creed, or sex.

Being survivors of the Darfur genocide, engineered by Sudan’s Islamists who hosted Osama bin Laden in the 1990s, we understand the anguish experienced by Londoners. We hope that the perpetrators of the atrocities will be caught and brought to justice.

We urge the international community to redouble its efforts to bring peace and security to people all over the world. Terrorism in any form is a crime against humanity and must be stopped.
