actually a muslim conference where the leaders all got together to figure out what to do about extremeists is a recnt event....infact (as newsweek stated) a first EVER...
Perhaps in america they are just trying to be on the "down low" ( i may be too old to use that term...but i want to appeal to todays youth somehow). But they shouldnt be....then again they are just trying to live their daily lives. Since anti Islamic attidudes are strongest here (and only since 9-11.............and before them it was...oh they wear a scarf because they lived in the desert and cant get over it..no biggie...............honestly thats what everyone thought)...
Now its...oh they wear a scarf......just pray that they dont pull an uzi out of their burka and demand your jewlery or demand to see your leader....
Yes its commical...but it is proving a point. I like you AIG, i really do, but i know no other muslim to explain this too.......... that your people need to be WAY more outspoken against these extremists. The war on "terror" will be won by your own kind to stop this, or at least in my country (yes the country id be happy to leave because of how I am treated...but I still want to help). The steroetype of a bomb taped to ones chest is always accompanied by a turban or a burka...and stereotypes are at least 50% true. And this is the only stereotype of a terrorsits i know (and it predates 9-11).
For islam to scrape any credibility it needs to start speaking out in full force...and now. If not the threat of american bombing mecca will become true. And i know your blind faith of allah protecting it(keep in mind i feel the same way about christiantity) will be diminished before your eyes....
An afterthought, USA is like one HUGE island. We are isolated form the rest of the world, we are large enough that we dont care about petty crap going on in the rest of the world and we live and let live (well...if your straight anyhow). We never cared what faith you followd (unless you are a conservative christian...or a crispy critter).
But since our tallest towers fell Islam has much to prove, even if they technically werent the ones who did it. But they have yet to prove to us they are willing to help. And if they dont start soon I really dont have to remind you that we have a military pupett in office as president of the United States...and no matter how much i dont want to admit it...the most powerful nation of the world. And if Allah is powerfull enough to protect Mecca he shoulda been powerfull enough to protect his good name without all the extremist and Jihadist...now would he?
Not to make you second guess your faith...but since its a religion i relish it and want you to second guess it...or at least spread the word that you cant sit on your fingers like straight/christian/society does by living a lie and taking its sacred text word for word when it is impossible to do so with all the many translations out there...
Duuude....
