Dear friend! They're not cursing all muslims, but they are cursing all terrorists. And as you can see, most infamous of them call themselves as defenders of ISLAM. You and me and other sensible people know that this is stupidity. But then that is what ignorance is all about.
I have many muslim friends in India and Pakistan and other Arabic speaking countries, who studied with me and lived in the same room as me, eating from the same plate. But then, the forum talks about terrorists and people who call themselves as "religious" people, but are indirectly/directly involved in spreading communal hatred. Terrorists don't have any religion morally, but then they call themselves from certain religion and that's what makes others angry. Because they (terrorists) do it on the name of their so called religion. Politics play everywhere in the modern society. Especially where they have infamous majority-minority things. They spread killings of Muslims in India and but not act to protect them, just like they don't act to protect Hindus in Islamic countries, like in Gulf or Thailand, Phillipines, Malayasia.
I think we should spread knowledge in the coming generations, and only that can solve the problem.

dear kareem , i am a hindu but i can understand your anguish and your family's views about terrorists. you and muslims like you are very much part of this country which is fighting hard to eliminate terrorisms from the indian soil.but "unfortunately" not very many-why ,not even a single--celeberity or politician or bhukari or owasi have openly condemned this attack !why are they NOT joining together and issue a "FATWA" against SIMI,LeT,Al-Quaida Mujahideen organisations.? why are they all hiding now except issuing a "press statement" with standard slogan? however,not withstanding these traitors, we all like muslims like you and we want you to be happy in this country like everybody else.pls.help us by educating your fellow brothers and sisters and let ALL OF US fight together these blood thirsty wolves-who are muslims but NOT followers of ISLAM .kudha-hafiz and hari om.

kareem bhai, You are right. You are genuine. I am proud to be a fellow-citizen with you. Lakhs of muslim families like yours, serving INDIA very well in many jobs, skills and in many businesses. I am as proud of WIPRO, as of INFOSYS. I like your mention of "Native Place". That is our common point. This soil. We belong to it. 1) These posts in this forum are NOT true guide to what people of India think. See, I am a brahmin. Have you read some of the posts against this caste? Some are very, very rude. Instead of addressing the points I make, they will abuse my caste. Have you read rude posts about Bengalis, Biharis, Madrasis ? Against Hindus - "animal worshippers and so on"? Against BJP / RSS... "Knickerwallahs" and so on. So, please do NOT take this Forum as FINAL. Some of the rude posters are having FUN exchanging these provocative and insulting posts. 2) Broadly, Muslim families are as safe and prosperous in India as Hindu families. See we have serious caste fights in India, hundreds can die. Serious agitations, the Gujjar thing, where dozens can die. Party workers kill each other. NorthIndians killed in Assam, Mumbai. So, please do not see India only through the lens of RELIGION. We are such a diverse country. 3) The Congress and some other parties have brought muslims to the centre of Indian politics - for vote-bank. That is wrong. When any person or community enjoys special attention, in India it always leads to problems. That is how anti-brahminism started.

Thank you...I am a muslim just like kareem..and every single hate message on this forum left me in tears.Not a single muslim i know is even remotely aggressive.And yet i know,when all these ppl finally decide to do something to defend India,they will only attack the innocent,coz the terrorists are too smart to get caught on the streets.Thank you for understanding our plight.Please remember,terrorists have their own religion.
