Everytime there's an attack by Islamic militants there has to be a mandatory protest by someone saying "Islam doesn't allow suicide, so how can he be a Muslim?" Islam is a peaceful religion, therefore anyone committing violence in the name of Islam can not be a Muslim. Great circular logic. What was the religion of Aurangazeb, Humayun, Tymoor, Ghazni Mohammad, Ghauri Mohammad, the Bahamani Kings in the Deccan and the vicious mass murderer Tippu Sultan ? Were they all Jains ?

This is the ploy of you guys. You pretend to be very pious when such things occur. Who knows, you yourself might be harbouring some terrorists in your home!
My message to the muslim brothers and sisters

To the muslim community (in India),
No doubt Islam is a GREAT religion, but the MAJORITY of muslims (including those in India) are extremists. Clearly this religion and its followers need some reforms. And these reforms should come from their own communities.
For example, some ancient (17th century) practices that must be abandoned : 1) butchering goats at home. 2) subjugation of females. 3) hypocritical practices like wearing burqa. 4) being misled by extremist community leaders. because these practices are simply not compatible with the modern world.
Unless muslims accept a little bit of change with the modern world, this menace of terrorism can't be eradicated. The first step (for the muslims) is to accept the fact that the majority of muslims today have extreme views, then the second step would be to start accepting modernism.
