Pretty hard to seperate being muslim from terrorism. It is a common denominator.

Tell ya what, you tell your "brothers" to stop the suicide bombings, then we can talk.  Are you REALLY that ignorant!?  Not all Muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are Muslims.

thats something that has never been made clear by those who point fingers and scream TERRORIST . in alot of peoples eyes its anyone of the muslim faith. in my eyes its anyone who pushes their political agenda with fear tactics that includes those who would scare americans into voting for a certain party  by shoving fear into their face.

Most Muslims are not terrorists, and most terrorists aren't Muslims. Americans react more to Islamic terrorism because it comes from an outside source, whereas domestic terrorism from militia groups or urban gangs doesn't trigger a sense of national unity or a 'fight response.'

Unfortunately, NONE!  Hate has always existed and always will as long as there is ignorance and intolerance.  The heinous attacks committed on 9/11 did not create any new hate crimes.  Rather, hate was issued a blank check that had no limit on spending!\n  \nYes, Arab Muslims were responsible!  Anyone that was involved should face our wrath for that matter.  But not all Arabs and not all Muslims!  Arab/Muslim hatred is nothing new however.  The initial reports following the OK City bombing falsely speculated that 'individuals of Arab descent' were the suspected and responsible perpetrators.  It was unthinkable that a tall, blonde, army vet might have been responsible.\n\nHate crimes have merely been diverted since 9/11.  Although the initial focus was the Arab/Muslim population,  it's expanded and encompassed other groups as well; most notably, gays and immigrants.  \n\nScapegoating and profiling will not solve the hate crime problems.  Education and tolerance might.  That is the key to strength, and not a sign of weakness!  We can and should be a fair and just people.  Unfortunately,  we have let the attacks of 9/11 perpetuate and exacerbate our proclivity for hate.  Eradicating these inclinations deserve a chance!\n\nP.S.  For the record, I lost a friend that worked for and was onboard one of the airlines involved, as well as other friends who worked in the towers.

"One Muslin [sic] cleric who's doing his best to build bridges between the Western and Muslim worlds is Imam Faisal Abdul Rauf, the founder of the Cordoba Initiative, a multi-faith effort to increase understanding and tolerance between Islam and the United States and the West."\n\n[Shhhhhh, the NSA might be listening...]

Check the Democrat's plan for radical islamic threats to America:\n\nhttp://democrats.senate.gov/newsroom/record.cfm?id=262588\n\nYou're welcome.

I don't know where you got that thought.  Americans dont think that all Iranians are terrorists any more than we think all Muslims are terrorists.  There is however a relationship the other way around -- much of the terrorist activity is currently being perpetrated by individuals that happen to be muslim.

I wouldn't have it if they didn't want to kill us Americans, or at least those who are supposedly the moderate Muslims would come out against those who strap bombs on and kill innocent people.  But they are no where to be found.\n\nOh well, if we get a democrat as President I'm dipping all my bullets in pigs blood.

It could and in some cases is backfiring. While I doubt if we will be seen as a threat to all, most radical Muslim entities are now pointing the finger at us saying we are the aggressors. This accusation has a ready ear among Muslim young who are poor and disenfranchised making them fertile ground for Al Qiada's doctrine of hate. Also some of the other Muslim countries are starting to see us as the aggressors motivated by greed for oil. It is going to take some very adept leadership to counter these perceptions if they can be countered at all. \n\nAlso at home on the domestic front a lot of Americans are losing faith in the War. Many Americans now see Bush's plan as being overly aggressive and motivated by petroleum. Many people are calling him the "Big Oil" president. There is no doubt that the war on terror is losing Alis.

I'm not sure that's true. Timothy McVeigh wasn't a terrorist, nor were Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold (the Columbine shooters), and none of the white supremacists (KKK, Nazis, etc.) are. Also, the ETA (Basque independence) weren't, nor the IRA (Irish Republican Army), nor are any of the groups in South America, like Shining Path in Peru, or FARC and the rest in Columbia. Oh, and also those Aum guys in Japan, that set off that Sarin nerve gas attack afew years ago. I could keep going, but I think you get the point.\n\nMuslim terrorists are obviously more in the news, but that doesn't mean most terrorists are muslim, it simply means that most terrorists you hear about are muslim.

I know a muslim scholar who kept saying to me that the unitarian christians believe exactly as the muslim belief regarding the onennes of god & that unfortuantley they don`t know that the prophet whom they are waiting for has already appeared with the message of Islam\nhe said that he went to visit those unitarians in America in their churches & that some of them did convert to Islam

It is the paranoia of Americans and the West itself. \nOur Muslim brothers are very well-educated and overwhelming majority of them have stood against violence and hatred incited by others.\nSuch great thinkers as Avicenna (founder of modern medicine), Alfraganus (whose astronomic works were laid as foundation for Dante Alighieri's Divina Commedia), Al-Horezmi(whose works are the basis of today's algoritm and IT at all) and many more thousands have studied in madrassa. Are they terrorists? \nHow many of Western people have memorized at least one chapter of Bible, how many Christians read Bible AT ALL? How many of them follow the Ten Commandments by Moses or teachings of Jesus? Unlike those many people who have tried to answer the question above without even being to madrassa or knowing their graduates, I would state that it would be a grave mistake for Western people to ascribe violent characteristics to religious schools - madrassas. \nRegarding shutting down all of them - let's shut down Catholic schools in Northern Ireland, who are preaching for killing protestants or American sects who are preaching for American heartland and etc.\nAgain, my dear Western friends, I would recommend You to look more deeply into matter before simply typing something for gaining points in this Yahoo! Answers.\nIthink this has been created for people would share some knowledge, based on facts and objective analysis.\nPeace be upon You.

ive been living in an arab country for 19 years now. neither islam nor muslims call for terrorism. they are good and helpful people. they really dont deserve being called terrorists, and they find it too offensive

Actually it was in the spirit of "life, liberty, and the persuit of happiness." The "life, liberty and persuit of hapiness" of the other passengers. The A.C.L.U. should stay out of this.\n\nUntil it could be confirmed that these clerics posed no threat to the plane and its other passengers they should not have been allowed to board. \n\nUntil such time that aircraft are being taken over and used as guided missles by someone other than young Arab Muslims, then Muslims should expect to be singled out. \n\nUntil such time as someone other than Muslims are threatening us and working toward the destruction of western civilation then Muslims should be viewed with suspicion.\n\nAnd American Muslim clerics could do far more to help bring this under control if they would simply stop encouraging the extremists by thier tacit, and sometimes outright, support for the actions of the terrorists.
