I am a Hindu and I fully agree with what the Islamic world says about the west’s capturing policies of West Asia and Afghanistan. Being first world nations with lots of money, these countries are trying to take control of the rich oil and natural gas reserves of these countries and also the strategic positions that most of these countries have. But my support for Islam ends there. I would definitely have liked to have more tolerance of other religion from Muslims. In today’s society you just cant call all non-Muslims as kafirs and either execute them or convert them or deny them their basic rights (if they are a minority in your country). Every individual respects his own religion and to him his own religion is supreme but that’s no excuse to say that since (according to Islam) all non-believers will go to Hell, its your duty as a pious Muslim to convert them and thus send them to Heaven! This is ridiculous! Fight the west’s policies of capturing your nations in the name of democracy and we are with you (that is world politics), but please be tolerant and respectful towards other religions too (this is religion). Never mix politics with religion.

Hi hassanah, It is because we do not understand each other, that people feel this way. We all want the same things, the best for our families, enough food, a place to live, happiness.
When people come to understand this we will have peace. People fear what they don't understand. I want peace, not war. I hope you do also. Blessings.
