» Howie - Re: Re: Islam (and Palestinian reaction to the tragedy)

In response to message posted by AidaH:

I did not mean to impugn all Muslims with the recent actions of terrorists. I just wondered how a compassionate religion like Islam could be used by extremists as their justification for violent action again innocents.
I had just received a Power Point attachment to an e-mail that relived the horrors of Tuesday. Planes aiming at the buildings, people falling from high stories, flames erupting and buildings falling.
How people could plan for over a year to conduct such an attack under the guidance of one that invokes his religion as the excuse is bewildering to me.
