Dermot's caller is not a lone voice. Thousands of Muslims whilst condemning this most recent act of murder (for that is exactly what it is) feel other loss of life is being viewed as 'collateral damage'. Their families consider them 'martyrs'.

Totally unacceptable! There are organisations who attempt to give names and faces to as many of the civilian dead and injured during these conflicts as possible. The mental and physical suffering of the injured in these impoverished regions are never reported.

Obviously the caller didn't phrase their concerns very well but I understand the sentiment. The world is up in arms over the IS murders but turn blind eyes towards the hundreds of thousands of deaths which aren't considered headline worthy in the West.

Until this is addressed there will be resentment.
