Dear Mr.G.Visvhas

You are correct dear Sir. apparently the horrendous image that is Islam this century is rather disturbing and reflects fear...

After some careful observations, I conclude that many muslim who resort to violence are either very misguided or living in a very bad conditions (poverty, hunger and etc...). Misguided by their regional religious leader (I've seen some in Friday Prayers). This is in my opinion really hurt islam itself and doesn't reflect it's true image as a peaceful religion.

I suspect that there are some people who at a particular time in a bad time being provoked to do sensless act just by listening to people around them (network marketing concept).

by the way do you live in Germany? I was there for six months... Germans are very kind and sincere people, great dicipline, amazing transportation system, beautiful old towns and of course gorgeous nature landscapes.....

Herzlichen Gruss,
Fajri Al Kautsar
