I remember as a child, I used to read stories of Sindbad and Aladdin, stories from the Arabian nights and other so-called 'Islamic' stories such as those brave Arabian warriors who fought 'evil' without fear and instilling pride and respect (and sometimes kindness) to the people.
However, every child born into this world today seeing many terrorists and so-called Muslims in acts of terror, instilling fear and hatred towards society. They do this in the name of religion, in the name of 'fighting evil' and so on.
Its sad, as these so-called 'Mujahideens' are not as those interpreted by other 'true' Muslims (by the way, either way, they are 'true' Muslims too, aren't they?).
I would like to ask a question related to the most recent and sad incident where 8 people were shot point blank and the driver, who recited 'Allahuakhbar' and other verses of the Quran during the attack was spared of his life (eventhough he was also attacked earlier).

You might want to check this link out:
http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/asiapcf/03/14/thailand.killings.ap/index.html?eref=rss_topstories
There are several other links which you may want to check out on the search engine. This attack was cruel and cold blooded.
My question also goes out to Muslims, which part of the Quran says its okay to kill an innocent 'infidel' just as you have witnessed in this world today? What has the beheadings of infidels today got to do with the methods of execution as stated in the Quran? How do Muslims instill love and brotherhood amongst those who are around you without such acts of terror? Why are some groups of Muslims behave so wildly and easily offended by criticisms and sometimes, being questioned of your faith (pardon me, its about being questioned... and then the questioner gets endless threats from you-know-who)?

TheBear,
there is no verse in Quran stated it's ok to kill innocent ppl.
No such says said that.. Having said that, u need to know there's extreme religious fundamentalis around the world.
Not only involving muslim but other religions also..
we cannot blame the religion for that..
Just that nowdays the world is more centered to Muslim agenda nowdays..
Can your blame Buddism for if A buddist attack ppl in market saying AMIBATHA??
can you..
as educated & religios ppl we need to combine our arms how to make the world a better place , not to make it worst.
As a muslim i also dont agree of what's happening .. but u need to think about why it happened? surrounding issues & the agenda..try to understand that... most of the killing are getting worst because of foreign accupation (American & its geng)

The 1001 Arabian nights story was about Scheherazade doing what she could so the King wouldn't have her head cut off!
I think that the terrorists heard that story when they were children and affects their actions of today.
