Motive behind UK bombing

UK officials are trying hard these days to delve into what actually motivated the young man who carried out the recent terrorist attack at a concert in Manchester.

She told the American daily The Wall Street Journal: “I think he saw children - Muslim children - dying everywhere, and wanted revenge". Even if the motive is taken for granted, the irony is that Abedi helped those in the west who purposefully try to tarnish Islam’s image and promote the hate of Muslims among western nations and throughout the world.
