There may be some truth to the articles but I believe it does not go nearly as far as the articles imply. There are articles from 2011 and recent that are discussing this issue and allegation. Ifirst of all want to point out that some things do not add up, though in principle I do not agree it's wrong if t...
This is the debate that I have been involved in numerous times over the years. I have asked many Imams about this issue and the response is normally the same. The last response I had was that "you get 10 times the reward" for reading it in Arabic without any supporting evidence from Qur'an or authentic hadith. Some people will not even accept any religious debate about Islam when it is done in English, yet the same people will lear...

http://www.cbc.ca/cp/world/050518/w051854.html It appears the WhiteHouse is trying to claim they are the victim of a conspiracy when they themselves use anonymous sources to give credibility to their actions.

There is no doubt this is based on separatist activity. I have found the claims of the Uighur Protesters contradicted in so many ways. A few interesting facts: 1.

I do not agree with people complaining that Uighur's are protesting. It is your right to protest if you want, and there were a lot of people bashing Uighur's for this.

This is just in response to the anti-Islamists who have been copying and pasting from anti-Islamic hate sites to miscontrue Islam.The Qur'an does not allow for any violence except in the case of self-defense, in fact the Qur'an repeats over and over that if the enemy (in times of war) wants peace, you can't continue fighting.This issue has nothing to do with Islam, it has to do with occupation and the Zionist leaders in Israel wanting a "Jewish" majority, and Ra...
