Jeddah/Abu Dhabi - The Organisation of Islamic Conference (OIC) on Thursday condemned the terror attacks in Mumbai, saying violence had no justification.

'These acts of violence contradict all human values and can be justified by nothing,' an OIC spokesman said at the group's headquarters in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.

In Abu Dhabi, the United Arab Emirates government condemned the 'reprehensible crime' and promised India its support in the fight against terrorism. About 80 per cent of foreigners living in the UAE are Indian nationals.

1. According to the OIC, were the attacks in Mumbai more reprehensible

than the publication of Rushdie's book The Satanic Verses, less reprehensible than the publication of The Satanic Verses, or equally reprehensible?

2. That is really good...

I was waiting for this...

The Islamic world must condemn violence.

3. About 80 per cent of foreigners living in the UAE are Indian nationals. Seems they didn't want

a public counter protest by Indians in the UAE could spark an escalation. Wonder if this public statement will keep a lid on their own countries freedom movement.

4. Now only if they would stop supporting the madrassahs

training the terrorists in Pakistan...
