I have heard very similar comments from other Arabs/Muslims. Yet words and actions do not jive.
If Islam is a faith of peace and love then other Muslim countries should arise and put a stop to such actions (especially as it is done in the name of Islam). Yet not only do they not take any action. They themselves are busy behaving in the same discriminatory behaviour.
I am not blaming you. But I simply can not accept such words any more.
I saw many interviews after 9-11 with Muslim Americans who were adamant that they have nothing to do with the terrorists. Yet where were they when the Taliban were murdering people in the name of Islam? or in Iran when they were murdering Baha'is in the name of Islam?
They were no where to be found. And that is why I believe that no Muslim has any right to say that they are different from the terrorists unless and until they do something to that effect.
Imagine the effect on Al-Qaeda if suddenly billions of Muslims around the world voice their displeasure.
And yet, they haven't.
What they have done is chant and dance in the street whenever innocent people die.
And we are then asked to believe that their Faith is one of peace and love.
