Unity with eyes wide open

To the contrary, Anonymous, I do fathom how deep this ummah is. Except it's what 'blinds' you not 'binds' you. It's the extra little kick deep down inside that makes a human turn into a murdering, uncaring, walking bomb-- not my idea of compassion and sympathy. So go ahead and rank on how our people are divided into portions (another knock on our individuality) and keep saying our god is too. Then look at what your people are doing for the Islam that 'blinds' you with such compassion and sympathy no matter what color, right? Tell that to the black Muslims in Sudan. Such COMPASSION!!!!

I hope you don't think you have a corner on the market as far as unity is concerned. Being attacked by militant Islam is all it took for nations with a wide variety of politics, religions, and points of view to turn its collective attention directly where the problem lays.
