Stop those evil imams and deep religion poisoned people from spreading hatred amongst people,the situation will be much better.Saudi arabia is a pretty much wealthy country,and not oppressed by any other countries except their own rulers,yet so many terrorists come from there.Money and a good life is not what those terrorists want most urgently after all.

The local Islamic Center had called for a demonstration against perceived Islamophobia for the Friday after the attack, but decided it was not a good time to do so given the San Bernardino incident.

What people fail to realize while spouting these diatribes is that there is a method to madness as to why far right is making significant gains across the globe specifically on Anti-Islam mandate. Be it Marie Le Pen's party in France or Danish People's Party in denmark or UKIP in Britain ( one seat but 13 percent of votes) or republicans in US is because of failure of center and left parties to address the issue of Islamic radicalization . Everytime there is a Islamist attack there will he stupid hashtags or #NotInMyName etc and massive profession of how Islam is a religion of peace or center and left parties trying to profess attacks were not done by muslim comes out instead of pointing out the elephant in room that is Islamic radicalization .

This leaves a void which far right parties are filling .


Criticizing Islam(ideology) is not an attack on muslims (people) just as criticizing Hinduism(Ideology) is not an attack on Hindus(people) just as criticizing Christianity(Ideology) is not an attack on Christians(people) just as criticizing Buddhism(Ideology) is not an attack on Buddhist(people).

Also where even legitimate condemnation of Islam is seen as Racist (although Islam is not a race) or Islamophobia when you will find same condemnation of all major religions in West you place yourself in a pigeon hole where even the legitimate concerns are sidelined .

Instead of looking inwards entire focus of left center and even moderate muslims is separation of terrorist attacks from the ideology and if anyone condemns any part of ideology or a whole he is a Islamophobic and Racist .

This concoction leads to massive rise in popularity of far right and demons like trump suddenly start leading by double digits figure .

This denial by the Islamists is self-defeating. It simply cannot last.

This denial has done much more damage to muslims than any terrorist attack ever can . In 21st century every ideology or religion is open to criticism, how hard is it to understand .

It can be argued that the biggest victims of this wave of Islamist terrorism is the Muslims themselves, and until they wake up to this monster in their midst, they will continue to suffer the most.

It is an unarguable fact .

However, it bears repeating, since those who would benefit from realizing it the most are obstinate enough to spend their energies denying it rather than dealing with it.

will he stupid hashtags or #NotInMyName

freedom of speech and not in my name should explain to the illiterate lot what my name means and stands for....

denying it rather than dealing with it.

we arent buddies with ISIS so why do you want to force us to accept something we dont associate with? Its like forcing someone to be a Christian no matter how many times he screams I am a Hindu!
Obviously the opposite of accepting (which many on this website are doing) is denying it!

And what many of you are doing is causing so many of the Muslims to be ill treated by islamophobes....just look at the stats!
