Why can a Jew be free to grow a beard and be looked at as only a person practicing his faith?
But when a Muslim does the same, he is an extremist and terrorist!
Why can a nun be covered from head to toe and be is respected for devoting herself to God?
But when a Muslimah does the same, she is considered oppressed!
Any girl can go to a university wearing as she wishes and have her rights and freedoms unjeopardized...
But when a Muslimah wears a Hijab, they prevent her from ENTERING the university!
When a Christian or Jew kills someone, religion is not mentioned...
But when a Muslim is charged with a crime, it is Islam that goes to a trial!
When someone sacrifices his life to save others, he is noble and respected.
But when a Palestinian does the same to save his son from dying, his brother's arm from being broken, his mother being from being raped, his home from being destroyed, and his mosque from being violated, he gets the title of a terrorist! Why? Because he is mslm

Yes and Muslims are also oppressed by their own leaders, often who claim to be religious but I have high high doubt that they are true.
There is a definite double standard propagated by the media and not to say too much. But Israel is controlling a lot of world money institutions and also has a deathgrip on US financial systems. Maybe people will realize these truths about the injustice being administered to the Muslims in a complete ethnic discriminatory way.
Also, I can understand where the injustice leads to desperation, but Muslims can come together with one voice which all the world would hear rather than small desperate acts of violence it would be FAR more effective. I hope Muslims get education and get out of the deathhold from their own leaders first then they can rise with one voice against what the rest of the world is propagandizing against them.
I'm not Muslim, but I feel for Muslims 100%. Ma Salama.

You are comparing apples to oranges. Nuns are nuns by choice. And they do have a choice of what to wear, even so. Muslim women are oppressed because they have no choice. Some of your other examples are flawed as well. If a Christian commits a crime in a country that is mostly Christian, there is usually no need to specify his religion. But if a Christian commits a crime in the name of Christianity, then it would be appropriate to mention his religion. It seems to me that often the mention of a Muslim's religion comes when a crime is committed in the name of Islam.
But you are right about news media often not reporting fairly. They have to sell their newpapers (or whatever) and those will not sell if the content is not popular with the majority of people who buy.

Hey,
I am a christian and live and work in brussels, Belgium. this is a multiculturel city and community. We live all togheter in the same street, town or city.
But my opinion is that a lot of this has become trough the power of the media.
And the majority of the people don't think this way.
And I think the way you dress is a way to express yourself in what you believe this is a part of how your caracter is made. not because of you have to for religion of becaus you must from your family..
I work and have pleasure with all religions and don't judge how they are dressed.
I hope this gave you an awnser. to your question.
The major meaning of my awnser is that not every one believes what is told or written in the media.

It is because all muslim countries didn't stick together to fight for their right. Even syia and sunni are still fighting. Therefore muslims always being oppressed by some countries. I believe if muslims stick together, we can stop the oppression against muslims.

Jews are NOT blowing people up with suicide bombs. Nuns are not flying airplanes into the WTC. Other religions are not attacking almost every other country on this planet, Muslims are.
Muslims are cutting off peoples heads on t.v. Muslims plant bombs on buses targeting civilians, not milititary targets. Muslims make deals with the devil himself to kill others. Islam is evil.

Every faith has distinctive practices and teachings, Muslims pray five instances an afternoon as that's what they feel is methods to serve G-d. as for the poster who thinks that Jeruslaem used to be certainly a Muslim mosque (FooFoo), i would like to grasp why he/she thinks that when you consider that (one million) Jeruslaem used to be a Jewish town 1500 years earlier than Islam existed, whilst it used to be based via King David and (b) it used to be the website online of 2 Jewish Temples earlier than Islam existed............ and eventually that it's not closed off to any individual because the Temple Mount - website online of the Dome of the Rock and al-aqsa mosque is honestly administrated via the WAQF, a Muslim tuition...........

GOD DOES NOT FORGIVE OPPRESSION
The Prophet (peace be upon him) sought God's pardon for his people and received the reply: "I have forgiven all but acts of oppression, for I shall exact recompense for the one who is wronged from his oppressor."
