Is this all some sort of joke to you?”
Choudary shot back, “You know, if you had a sense of humor, you would have laughed at that. It was just a sound check.”
“You shouldn’t take any of these things that seriously. If you want to make it a big deal, then so, but it makes you look much more shallow, really,” he added.
The 7/7 refers to the July 2005 London bus and tube bombings that killed 52 and injured over 700 people.
The 3/11 was referencing the March 11, 2004 Madrid train bombings that killed 191 people and injured 1,800.
