I have some first hand experiance on this topic in living in Uk and seeing whats going on. If you look at where saudis have given money in the UK to build mosques they have insisted on islamic teachers who have studied in Saudi. These guys come here and they teach a very harsh version of islam, I have seen familys and know familys who have over the last twenty years started wearing burqas and loads of beards etc has increased. Not there is anything wrong with either of these things. One woman who is a freind of my mothers comes into this category and I remember overhearing a conversation in which this lady and my mother were talking about burqa. One comment that sticks in my mind that my mother made was "I have been for haj at Haj we were requested that we dont cover our faces at our most holy site". It made me wonder that Islam advises to cloth modestly but then its regional interpretataions. The fact that Saudis have so much money they are able to propogate their harsh version of islam. Now I am not suggesting that burqa and beard means terrorist but i do note that this was the case with one of the bombers in London. I think the Saudi version of islam is not only harsh but encorages a very harsh and intolerant version of islam. So when a 1000 people who hear this message a lot will just wear a burqa and have a beard but some go off at a tangent and become fanatics.
I noticed that every Pakistani soldier in this picture is wearing a beard! Is it about religion or PA's latest style statement? If it's about religion, then it probably is an alarming development. I thought one can be a good soldier even without sporting a beard to flash his religious beliefs? Does this prove that he is more Muslim than one who's clean shaven?

Solution is:
Don't be over religious,be moderate n lead a peaceful n happy life till u live
Solution is Americans tell their Saudi freinds that when they pay for building mosques dont send teachers from saudi. Am surprised they dont stop it allready
there is nothing wrong wearing a beard or putting a hijab/burkha etc extremism is when one forces his views on other's & gets involve in anti-social activities then its bad otherwise one can wear whatever one feels like extremism can be in the form of many thing & not only religion
I've never been able to understand that either - I don't know why they enjoy having their pictures taken as much as they do, really it doesn't make any sense

I wasn't equating beards with terrorism directly. But then beards COULD lead to religious ideology graduating to > religious fundamentalism > extremism > terrorism.beard has nothing to do with terrorism. Many suicide attacks were carried by clean shaved extremist. Why people are so obsessed with it???
Agreed......But a question to Pakistan friends..whenever you guys go out with family do you take any picture with heads and body covered all over? This is a fact or it is the impression in Indian media only?
