I am not against condemnation of terrorism.
I’m only against the unjust vilification of the entire Islamic faith and entire Muslim community.
Mainstream Islam and the vast majority of Muslims condemn terrorism, they do not preach it. Suicide and murder are both Haraam (forbidden) in Islam and traditional Islamic law has very strict laws governing war which forbid targetting non-combatant civillians, women, children, elderly, plants, animals, churches, synagogues, monastries etc.
…Some level of political incorrectness is innate with any religion (e.g. the only way to salvation is Christ, there is no deity except Allah/Eloh, only those who believe/follow in the Torah/Noahide-Laws will have a place in Olam-Ha-Ba etc.) but that doesn’t mean our religions stop us from having cordial relations and living in harmony with each other.
Hate websites, newspapers, TV channels are all propogating the myth that most Muslims are terrorists and Islam is an inherently evil religion (it’s not always said so blatantly but that’s the message that is intended)…
Blatant genralisations, untruths, half-truths and ignorance is being propogated against the entire Muslim community and most people who read it would lap up all the hogwash without being objective and then that translates into the way people percieve us and treat us in real life, and the cycle of hatred carries on, the rift between communities widens further and the problem of terrorism is aggravated…
We do have our bad-apples but they are a tiny minoirty, they do not represent mainstream Islam or the vast majoirty of Muslims or their beliefs…
…The reasons for radicalisation, extremism and terrorism are not strictly religious they are political and social, not that that justifies it but if we are sincere about defeating terrorism we can’t just keep brushing the real causes under the carpet and only looking at what we want to see..
