The Canadian Islamic Congress regrets the recent cycle of violence involving the bombing at the U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania, and the retaliatory U.S. military bombing of targets in Sudan and Afghanistan. CIC regrets the killings of innocent people in these four acts of violence.
Human life is scared, irrespective of origin, race, color, religion or citizenship.
The life of a citizen of Kenya, Tanzania, Sudan, or Afghanistan, is as valuable as the life of a citizen of the United States of America. Human suffering is abundant as a result of natural disasters the world over. The world needs no one, a group or a government, to manufacture death, human misery, poverty and destruction. Acts of violence are against Canadian values. Muslim Canadians are against acts of violence by groups or by governments.
