Newspaper substitutes name of deity in airport bomber's motive
New York Times Building in New York City
The New York Times has equated the word "Allah" with "God" in a story
it published today concerning the motive of an Islamic terrorist in the
United Kingdom.
The Times made reference to a story originally published Monday in the
Guardian newspaper, which stated: "Airport bomber's email to relative
said he wanted to die for Allah."
The case involves Kafeel Ahmed, who crashed a Jeep Cherokee into the
main terminal at Glasgow's international airport in June.
But in the New York Times' version of the story, the word "Allah"
appears nowhere, instead being changed to "God."
The precise wording from the Times article read:
The person close to the investigation said that Kafeel Ahmed had sent
an e-mail message to his brother two hours before crashing the Jeep,
but that it was not opened until 90 minutes after the attack. On
Monday, The Guardian newspaper reported that Kafeel Ahmed had sent a
text message to "a relative" with "a link to an e-mail and a password
to access it," saying he was acting according to God's will
