The street theology of Muslim anger and the logic of dying to win

Part 1 | Part 2 [8]

Speaking at the Parliament of the World's Religions, Islamic leaders Abdul Malik Mujahid and Dr Muhammad Shafiq look at the discourse of Muslim anger in the world and the strategic logic of suicide terrorism. They examine how traditional Islamic concepts and terminology are being used (and misused) to justify the fight against real or perceived injustice, and how poverty and socioeconomic injustice contribute to armed insurgency in the Middle East and South Asia. In doing so, they explore the links between social movements, rebellion and theology.
