I agree with Raja Petra. We are our own enemies. Muslims have our own set of problems & issues that others don’t really understand & surprisingly, some couldn’t even believe the idea of a problematic religion. Muslims are getting major media airtime just because of the fear sentiments that has been put out about us. It’s the same tactic that some dirty Muslim quarters tried to expel to diss other religions. Sentiments of fear.

Time and time again, we defend ourselves by being ourselves. Over & over again, we’re either being ridiculed, made fun of or shamelessly being thrown insults & unfavourable comments. There is no harm if you want to understand why. It is not wrong for you to ask why.

But it gets dodgy if you try to act as one of us while you are not one of us.

I was with Kris Khaira last night, and he spoke about an unknown country in Africa, Benin. I told him I’ve never heard of it. He asked me do I know why I never heard of it. No, I don’t know I said.

He told me it’s because there is no civil war in Benin. No display of fear, poverty, trouble and nobody is killing each other.

It makes perfect sense.
