I appreciate your view, and to tell you the truth, I agree with you that the teachings in the Koran indicates everything you have said. But, what I am saying is that not all Muslims follow this hateful way. If calling them not true followers of Muslim, then fine, that is what they are. I think a good portion of many religions do not follow their religion to the exact scripture...probably just doing the basics. I am sure thoes are the ones I have met. I am in full understanding what the WOT is about and I understand the general history of Islam. But, I also appreciate other cultures, and refuse to shun a person because of their religion or because they are different, unless that ‘person’ gives me reason to. This is not saying that Muslim countries feel the same way. But, that is what makes western culture different than theirs. I am not walking around with a blind fold on, I am just willing to give an individual a chance. It does not mean being naive or not being vigilent, it just means giving an ‘individual’ a chance. How would you react if you were in a position of interacting with a Muslim? You would do what you had to do - work, finish a task, etc? And what if during a period of time you realized that this person was just as human and caring as any other person? Try to see outside of the box, ok?
