Differentiating Islam from Terrorism





When you look at the media today almost everything is geared towards the Western idealist of "what" Islam is. Even our own Capitalist government is still having a hard time differentiating between Islam and Terrorism because of the "over-televised" depiction of the Middle East. Islam is far from what any Muslim would describe as a religion of terror or wrong-doing. Through the history of Islam Muslims have been at WAR their identities. Islam has come far from back in the times of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The problem is that people haven't realized that we are at war with "Cultural Engineering/Cultural Genocide" and the idealist that have cultivated people into their mindset. Albeit with Islamic Arabization. Cultural Engineering can also be called "Cultural Genocide" which would be in accordance to the fact that for instance: At birth I was separated from my family and raised by someone else, I would eventually come to a "fork in the road" where I could Forgive & Forget or Recognize & Realign with my original identity. So to say that Islam is of Terrorism would be like comparing War to Colonialism. The U.S. has for decades been the Agent of Global Change, and in the words of some "Always have had they're hand in the cookie jar". Trying to develop other countries into adhering to a democracy has become a worthy reason for rebellion in the Middle East. Quoted from a scholar: "Arabization is importation of Arab-origin ideology & religious practices, greetings, terminology, and even mosque architecture." also, "Fellow Muslims seem to be afraid to engage in dialog and seek to persuade rather than confront." Arabization is profound amongst the Cultural Engineering in the Western Culture too, Americans today even struggle with being educated into having certain beliefs and ideas on what should be "the norm". One's appearance shouldn't be a judgmental factor against their character, just as you shouldn't "judge a book by it's cover" Engineering one's culture upon many can cause friction. Needless to say Terrorism is any way in accordance with Islam, with any cause there is an a effect and Terrorism towards the U.S. has almost been self inflicted. Just as the Arabs have been through Cultural Genocide, the Jews (the Holocaust), and African Americans (Slavery), have all been subjected to this attack on they're culture. In this religion of Islam it is wrong to make mischief and extremism can easily be started by way of rituals. I myself do not condone any of the actions that the Middle Easterners have taken as justice, but I am a firm believer in The Righteous Way and guidance is very well needed to get an understanding of the Middle Eastern Culture. In conclusion Islam is a natural way of life and begins with one bearing witness that there is No God but God and Muhammad(PBUH) is his messenger,
Peace

I'm very interested in Money...I've met her once and I can't live without her, she makes me feel good, but I'm strong enough to know that too much of her wouldn't be healthy. So I always make time for Money, a day that I take her out and show her the things I like. I make Money and Money is just starting to realize that she can't make me.
