What happened in Manchester was terrible and is not to be excused; but it should not be a reason to lie, just because you don't like Islam.
And speaking about motivations: Do we already know the motivations of the Manchester killer? Was it Islamism; or was he a lonely MRA with a crush on Ariana Grande?
A few weeks ago there was a bomb attack in Germany, on the football team of Borussia Dortmund.
Shortly after, social media filled with comments against Merkel's immigration politics; because lots of people assumed it was an Islamist attack.
And then, it turned out that the perpetrator was a white non-Muslim European who had acted out of greed. He wanted to disrupt the stock market.
I'll reserve judgments about the Manchester bomber's motivations until I know the facts.
