"158 dead, there goes your 'peaceful' religion again." Now comments like that make me sick, angry and ashamed all at once, but if there's anything I am not going to do right now, is to apologise for being a Muslim. See, don't get this twisted, my heart bleeds for France right now, and no normal human being will condone such an act, let alone in the name of a religion you adore, but just because some lunatic chants "Allah akbar" prior to committing fuckery, or just because someone goes by the name Omar, Abdulaziz, Abdullah or Ibn-something doesn't mean he's a Muslim, or whatever he does must be used as a brush to paint every Muslim.
Look, in as much as we want to condemn all these supposed religious extremism, we also need to consider the root cause of the so called radicalisation of these terrorists, and the "collateral damages" that are apparently creating nothing but collateral enemies. Bigger heads need to recalibrate and see if the extreme anti-extremism, or the anti-terrorist terrorism is really doing us good. That's what unbiased people do. They prevent a problem from escalating by nipping it at the bud, because blaming innocent people is never a strategy. May God protect this...this thing we call our world from armed criminals, both overt and covert. I thought I should say that. Amen!
