I do believe that Islam is a religion of peace but why, still, many people just can't stand to see Muslims live in peace. That's why they are always trying in any ways to attack Islam either in an overt or in a hidden way.All kinds of terrorist-related attacks have always been associated with Islam.. I just dont know why this happen. Terrorists are Not Muslims.. and Islam is not terrorist. Even when we, as a Muslim, kill a tiny ant intendedly that means we do make a big sinful act ourselves. So what about killing hundreds of people in a massive horrible attacks like bombings or like jut what happened in Mumbai can be justified... that ultimately goes against Islamic Principles. Unfortunately, most western media would cover a truly imbalanced story. They will put Islam in the first place as the party who should be held accountable for any of those killings without going deep to the real fact of it. But why THOSE JEWISH TROOPS who have murdered inhumanely towards millions of Palestinian Muslims would never be considered as 'The real Terrorist' ?? can you answer for this??? I wonder why?? This could be a 'Grand Scenario' of Western to once again attack Islam !!!

Muslims always proudly announce that their religion is a religion of peace. How contrary is it today. It where again Muslims who made this terrible attacks in Mumbai. Does it wonder than that people in other countries do not believe them??
I did even not hear the big Muslim organsations in Indoniesia condemning those attacks who killed many innocent human being.
Why do they not react?? Do they agree with the attacks???
