Recommendation 2 from ‘The Guardian’

Article Name:Britain’s wars fuel terror. Denying it only feeds Islamophobia

By: Seumas Milne

The article is a critical analysis of what is happening in this world. Driven by fear and increasing amount of Islamophobia, political decisions are hurting the common man. In a way, the article here is common knowledge but the facts given here are generally not accepted by many. Read to know the realities of British society.
