you will never talk about peace when you are trying to derail people`s culture and imposing yours with the claim of it beign the best.This begets no peace but war,war ,war. Civilization is not about being western,its not about being American. Until we open our minds to this reality,we will never talk about peace in Iraq neither in israel and palestine.

I am a liberal muslim who belive in coexistence with people of diverse cultures and civilization. I hate the suicide bombing thing in the name of promoting Islam. All i know is that Islam is a religion of civilization, a religion that give premium to social decency.

Asalamu alaikum.
