Pushing a wall which has a deep base...

Mr. Daniel and Kurtlane..

.I read your dialog which is quite interesting. But for me the discussion here is nothing productive. Muslims living in Europe and United States or elsewhere in the West are well set and contributing alot in the economy and are extremely peaceful and friendly. What I know is that Muslims are the most abiding citizens of these countries when it is talked about crime rate, atrocities and human rights violations. The debate should be more about those who are not following the laws, and who are creating problems for these countries.

The hype of terrorism is losing its picture because many now strongly believe that be it 9/11 or WMD drama in Iraq, was ugly plots and were made out of sincerity to the people of USA and Brittan. When we see Tony Blair losing his ground and Republicans are crying to justify the purpose of war and when we see the slogans of stop the war by extremely disturbed mothers of soldiers fighting purposeless wars then one can easily realize that every wrong action would bring a result out of expectations.

Muslims after 9/11 and adventure in Iraq are now strongly bonded with their faith. It is all because it is seen by the naked eyes that the conspiracies were unveiled quickly. The discussions against Islam can gather only few attention because people are now fed up of what is being continuously told them to believe. People would now shout for result.

Talking about resisting Islam in Europe, I must say now Islam would wage like a wild fire all around the Europe. No matter how less practicing a Muslim would be but he/she cannot bear insult of the Holy Prophet and Quran the glorious. I am quite sure that Europe has to bend the knee infront of Islam because Islam is now gaining momentum again and would put a long lasting impact on the near future of this planet.

Best of luck.
