The best way to end war and ensure peace is to kill the enemy.
As a muslim, the only "cultural awareness" that matters is that of Islam. Muslims are not on a mission to stamp out prejudice by "cultural awareness events." The muslim's culture is his deen, based solely on Quran and Sunnah, and breaking away from the days of jahiliyya in which a person searches for his or her identity in racial or national heritage.
Christian/Muslim dialogue is recently becoming a coined phrase for "potluck dinners" in which christians and muslims sit down with food from various parts of the world, and spend the evening getting to know one another, in a vain attempt to prove that muslims are tolerant. This agenda of "cultural awareness between muslims and non-muslims", fueled by the followers of W. Deen Mohammed and other similarly mislead groups of people, emphasizes non-Islamic "culture" and encourages people to engage in bid'a in an attempt to solve the problems of modern day racism, prejudice, and discrimination. See the topic of Auliya (friends, etc) for more information on why this type of social interaction is discouraged, and why the seeking of support from non-muslims is wrong.
The problem or root cause is not the policies of the US etc. It is the issue of Islam's practice of intolerence, suicide, and its' stated goal of genocide to all non-muslims. We, as a free people, rail against teachings of prejudice & hate, why oh why are we tolerant of the teachings coming out of islam ordering the genocide of the free world? Islam, like the abusive person, seems to have been able to destroy the free worlds self-esteem and won world leaders and MSM to its' side as enablers.
If Islam is the enemy, then we're going to have to bump off 20% of the world's population.
