Dear Tariq

But it is you who uses the same shabby tactics to exculpate Islam. You say Islam is actually a religion of peace, and it is a ring of criminals which is highjacking it. If that be the case, why is it that 74% of Arabs residing in the Land of Israel think that indiscriminate shelling of Jewish population, as the Hizballah did, is not only justified but meritorious?

Why is it that millions danced in the streets of Amman, saudia, Egypt, North Africa, Indonesia, when the towers came crashing down? Islam is the problem, not the solution, just as Germany was the problem, not the solution to nazism.
