Quote: Taken from Wired News Article "Give Peace a Website" Within a week of the Sept. 11 attacks, Amira Quraishi and a group of her friends in New York City had incorporated a nonprofit called Muslims Against Terrorism.
With a message -- the Islam religion does not condone killing innocent people -- but no budget, they turned to the Web to spread the word.
They started with a spare website that tracked hate crimes and cited key passages from the Koran that call for peace, justice and tolerance. Within three weeks, the site had slick Flash graphics, a press kit, links to other good resources, links to the group's listserv and contact info for members. | Quote: Taken from the site Terrorism is an act against God, not for Him. Anyone who tries to justify such atrocities ultimately fails because both Islamic law and theology punish these acts as moral sins and heinous crimes. This is true regardless of one's grievances towards American foreign policy. The Quran instructs Muslims in times of adversity to act with justice and persevere with patience. | ... www.matusa.org ... | |

finally...
why can't people seem to understand this? depressing like a blanket of ash
in this drowning pool of the damned
society so blind to the world under the cloak of glass
where intellect and dark beauty walk hand in hand | |

About time...  You promised me the ending would be clear
You'd let me know when the time was now
Don't let me know when you're opening the door
Stab me in the dark, let me disappear | |

Uh-huh - shame there are no Muslims here to tell us about it from the inside. This is a pretty site though - and deffinately a refreshing sight (heh.. site, sight....), a bucket of water over the heads of those blundering enraged Yanquis! | |

Yeah... well... the whole Sept 11th + "War on Terror" (Ha!) thing is just one manifestation of American/Christian friction with Near-Eastern/Muslim. It was happening a long time beforehand, and will continue to happen - probably increased - fopr a long time afterwards. That's why we need things like this site. | |

i live in the south of the united states. these people are clean cut animals that still possess the sense of "community." they are the same people who burn crosses and beat minority down so they can feel some sense of supirioity. "so what's the point pyrric?"
point is, im always frightened by the redneck, white bread, chickenshit who has "nuke 'em, george" soap written on the back window of his huge suv. havnt they figured that there are some people who are aganst the tailiban and dont want terrorism or war with the americans living in afghanistan. why would you 'nuke' them. they can be your allies.
and while im at work with the most inconsiderate people and here "they should turn that place into a parking lot" i cant help but think "what would you do if your goverment was now in a war with a superpower? would you want to be "nuked"? no. you'd just want it to blow over so you can go back to tending your sheep." take em all, take em all, put our back against a wall and shoot em, toe to toe, watch em fall, come on boys take em all. | |

The thing that really bugs me is people who assume that because people are of a different culture they aren't as well educated, the stupid "they can't even speak english properly" mentality.

Oh. I just realised that two of my friends are from Afganistan, and about 30% of my friends in total are indian....
*Shakes head*
That's why these english punks make me so sick; they beat up any 'towel-head' they can find, just for someone to blame.
*shrugs*
Hey, didn't some american kid just blow up a school or something?
KILL ALL AMERICANS!!!!
BRAAAAGGGH!!!
THOSE CHILD-MURDERING ******ARDS!!!!

See how easy it is?
I used to live in SA, so racial discrimination isn't something new to me, but I still find it sickening. I don't want to be remembered...

I'm sure your intellect, amiability, compassion, etc. would shine through any level of linguistic barrier; and the non-existance of said barrier gives me all the more chance to recognise and enjoy those qualities...
( above goes for that whole other culture thing too!) | |

"cathegory!" (it's category, as I'm sure you know), it was a typing error rather than spelling I'm sure... but I couldn't help picking up on it, as the context was just brilliant! :p | |

Damn...I missed that one....it was a spelling error, actually, but I know better. Just like I always seem to write 'menthor' instead of 'mentor'...I don't know, maybe it sounds more english..? *ponders* You promised me the ending would be clear

So much is lost... I want to live in a world of peace
Without conflict, like the one I’ve seen in my dreams.
I just can’t keep it inside
I’ve gotta say what I wanna say
Your face doesn’t show your fighting pose. | |
