I was once in Dubai airport on transit and was treated badly (very rough reply by security person on asking if there is any sitting place anywhere, as if I was a begger). However, once I was in Cairo for a day. There I got very good treatment.

These biased messages of people like JGN are the reflection of the general poor intellectual level of the so called "educated masses" which is also reflected in the manner we elect leaders of the country.
Bad treatment of some elements cant be judged by its religious teachings...

Star, there is no use defending the indefensible. I know what I am talking about. I have worked with the poorest of poor and also lived in shanties at Construction sites to 5 Star hotels. I have observed life from close quarters.
Money makes the world go round. The poor among the upper castes are also treated badly by their rich relatives. All these are human-traits.
I am only irritated by the Muslims and Christians ridiculing our native culture day in and day out when there are any number of flaws in their religion also. If your religion is good for you, practice that. We have the freedom to beleive in any god or not beleive also. If you ridicule others, there would be some one like me to ridicule your beleif also.

The truth is majority of Muslims are being alientaed by the negativity of many Hindus or Athiest and their odious views about Islam and Muslims.
The need is to understand that playing the anti Islamic card will not help in this modern era where everone with some sense knows the great message of Islam and its robust presence in the world since its inception. The fact that Islam continues to grow in such an odious environment proves that truth finds its way in the darkness...
YOU HAVE WHAT YOU BELIEVE BUT ISLAME MEANS "PEACE AND LOVE"

dear star. i did not want to discuss religion here. now u hv started praising islam, where there is no freedom of speech. U must follow what is written in Quran, which was written thousands of yrs ago. As a Muslim u cannot criticise anything that may b irrational or unscientific, otherwise u will get fatwa.

Star, have you read the Quran in a language you fully understand? Pl search for The Skeptics Annotated Bible for category-wise verses like Absurdites, contradictions, hatred, good-stuff, etc form The Bible, The Quran and The Book of Mormon and understand for yourself.
I do not beleive in any god. So pl don't tell me that the Quran was directly transmitted by some "most merciful creator" etc. It was the concoction of Muhammed to motivate his followers. You can beleive what ever you want but don't try to impose that on others.

Exactly, the Arabs consider the Indians as poor and that is why they are flocking to their country for employment despite the harsh climatic conditions and other difficulties.
