On July 7, 2005 a CAIR Press Release reported, "A prominent national Islamic civil rights and advocacy group today condemned this morning's bomb attacks in London as 'barbaric crimes.'

In its statement, the Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) said:

'We join Americans of all faiths, and all people of conscience worldwide, in condemning these barbaric crimes that can never be justified or excused. American Muslims offer their sincere condolences to the loved ones of those who were killed or injured in today's attacks and call for the swift apprehension and punishment of the perpetrators.'

The Muslim Council of Britain and other British Islamic groups issued similar condemnations of the attacks and urged Muslims to help in the recovery effort."
