Fanaticism is not something that can be controlled and if anyone should know this, it is widely read people like him. Insinuating that GMB is somehow linked to the terror group because one of them shouted his name before blowing himself up is the same as saying that Jesus is a murderer because millions of women were killed in the name of the religion he started in the 18th century. Almost 1,800 years after his death.
A lot of religious Fanatics destroy lives and properties in the name of one god or another, in the same vein, atheists insult and ridicule and sometimes even curse theists on facebook pages. Give or take a few decades, maybe there will be atheist terrorists too.
I'm not supporting Terrorism, but then neither am I supporting bigotism. It is logically wrong to make assumptions based on the state of mind of a suicide bomber. Any lawyer that is worth his/her title would know that presenting a religious fanatic who is willing to kill himself and a lot of other innocent people for the sake of religion as a witness in court is a risky gamble. If it would be unwise to present this kind of character as a witness in a court case, how is it wise to make an insinuation of this magnitude about a man based on the words of the same character?
