Mareen:

You write "My clumsy friend you never heard of colonialism and your so called 'WEST' and all the disgusting crimes they commited. Especially those in India and South Africa; the murdering, raping, discrimination - the list goes on for ever this has happened well before 9/11.".

Ah, Mareen. Do you know what Islam did to Hindu Civilization over its rule of about 1000 years in India? Or do, I have to remind you of that.

Of course, muslims consider their rule over India was benign; it was glorious. Unfortunately, the victims (Hindus) have different memories. Just about anything muslims can think of being done to them in Palestine and other places, they did to Hindus for over 1000 years.

What a glorious civilization of Islam; what a peaceful and beuatiful religion of Islam!.

I don't know if Islam is peaceful, but I have very serious doubts of its followers. Just one need to read the history of Islam (and its followers) over the entire world for the entire period of 1400 years.
