(11,014 posts)I have treated victims of terrorism while the perpetrators were given safe passage and hidden by a hostile Muslim country.
I have a tremendous hatred for terrorism, >95% of which is perpetrated in the name of Islam while a vast majority remains silent. My posts are directed at terrorists and wherever there is brutality/injustice spread in the name of religion. Then there is the extreme misogyny with honor killings, forced marriages, lack of freedom in attire etc.
I would rather see Muslims bring back their glorified past in science, literature and the arts (Kahlil Jibran, Rumi, Umar Khayyam etc.) rather than the worship of violent and rabidly religious characters whose atrocities are exalted for the masses.
Fortunately, more and more sane and rational Islamic leaders are speaking out against ISIS and other outfits and hopefully, the sympathy and support they generate in the minds of younger Muslims will undergo a sea change.
