One thing that bugs me is how, when things like this happen, you see some muslims tweeting(and posting) 'islam is a religion of peace'. Now, I get their good intentions but I feel, they should instead go on rallies and week-long protests on how islam is a religion of peace so the extremists can understand their version of Islam - rather than sitting in a comfy chair and posting without action. Its gotten to a stage where those who believe in the peaceful version start proving how it is INDEED peaceful.

TheBookWorm: What I can't understand is why do these religious extremist stay in countries that they hate?

Maybe they should move to Saudi Arabia, Yemen or Pakistan instead of coming to nations that value secularism.

There they can have their sharia while people who want to live in the modern age can live in peace.

Actually religious extremists will find even Saudi hard to live in. Many of you can not differrentiate the normal Muslim from an extremist.

The land belongs to all however.An extremist knows that more than anyone else .

Even if they did, i'm not sure you'd see it on the news. They don't control the media do they? Unfortunately twitter and social media is where they can actually be heard. If you don't like reading about that you can just look and pass.

What good could possibly come out of being converted by a convict moslem preacher? The mere fact that they're preaching from prison presupposes that they'd have an intense hatred for western society and their gov'ts; and that hatred is bound to be transferred to their young and impressionable converts.....converts who may likely feel abandoned and isolated from society, and would see 'islam' as the new family that offers them that sense of belonging and 'family' that they lacked on the outside.

tdade: Alarmingly true. But what exactly can be done to curb this trend?

To preach the true Islam.

Fact is many more people will find Islam.attractive and will revert. Keeping them on track is a role Muslim leaders have to play. The reverts naturally tend to go miles faster than they should and are easy preys.

God help them.

Only the so-called fanatics are true adherents to islam. moderate muslims are lazy sissy wimps who can't be bothered going through the confusing arabic d1ck scribble that mo' authored.

Islam is violent! Just pickup a koran and read and you will see all evidence to the contrary that Islam is a Religion of Peace.

If they did, we would see it on the news. All the Imams do after attacks like this is come out and dissociate themselves from the terrorist. You make it sound like there's a hidden agenda against Islam.

Their beheading was carried out on behalf of Muslims.
If their actions were motivated to call a response against what the perceived as injustice to Muslims then it is more than appropriate that Muslims should denounce their actions as unholy.
But that won't happen. You know why? Because islam is all about violence.

Islam has a lot to offer them.Even at inception, Islam was attractive to the people at the lowest social strata. It preaches brotherhood and fills voids.

They get a sense of belonging which maybe lacking from elsewhere.

Islam is just what a downtrodden needs to get up and the humbling pie for the mighty

If some of these people prefer Islam. I think this is where Nation of Islam has to come in and educate them about the Islam for black people. And make them useful to the black community, rather than slaves to Arabs.

for God's sake when would ignorant and poverty stricken Nigerians,privileged to browse the net,stop associating the evil ideology WAHHABISM aka SALAFISM preaches with Islam?

the prime minister of the UK is busy calling for the ouster of Assad in Syria and supporting the Nusra Front (an alqaeda affiliate in Syria similar to boko haram in Nigeria) to overthrow the Syrian regime.moreover these Wahhabi/Salafist groups backed by Saudi Arabia and Qatar (allies of western countries) are wrecking havoc in Syria.the west is happy that Syria is burning and the Wahhabi/salafist groups are aggravating Sunni-Shia sectarianism among Muslims.just a few day ago,the british are on the lead for the EU to brand Hezbollah's military wing as a "terrorist organization" because Hezbollah (the Shia Islamic Resistance Movement that fought Israeli occupation of Lebanese soil) is fighting with Assad in Syria against the western backed terrorists fighting Assad.

the west previously created bin laden to fight the soviet union.the west see the Wahhabi/salafist ideology as a tool to kill two birds with one stone,or perhaps three birds with one stone.the Wahhabi/salafist ideology promotes western interests,causes sectarian strife among Muslims through takfirism,and also gives Islam in general a bad image that have nothing to do with Islam itself.in Pakistan alone,tens of thousands of Shia Muslims have been massacred by Saudi funded Wahhabi/salafist terrorist groups.similar to those groups killing Shia Muslims in Pakistan and Iraq is boko haram in Nigeria killing Christians through takfirism.the west forgets that after these bloodthirst Wahhabi/salafist beasts are done doing the dirty work for the west,they will turn around to inflict pain on innocent people,even westerners in western countries.but its a win-win game for the west as it also favors their propaganda against all Muslims,regardless if they support or oppose the Wahhabi/salafist ideology of death.

when would Nigerians stop to put all muslims in one basket? badmouthing islam because you're a Christian with a goal of evangelization is an evil scheme anyone who truly believes God exists should be ashamed of.

today,the USA is backing them again in Syria.about a week ago one of the terrorists was pictured eating the severed heart of a dead Syrian soldier.its on youtube people.these are the savages,cannibals and bloodthirsty beasts the US,turkey and the Wahhabi kingdoms of Saudi Arabia and Qatar are supporting to destroy Syria for the interests of Israel.

There's no love lost between blacks and Arabs...and "brotherhood" between the two groups is a pipe dream.

Arabs need to leave us alone and take their ideology back to MENA.

How can you say there is an agenda against Islam when we have islamists committing these atrocities in the name of Islam? Stop being deluded man. If truly it is a religion of peace, then i have nothing against the religion. its the people who practice it who seem to have a twisted understanding of it.

What are you on about? undecided

Nation of Islam was created for black people and their doctrine is different from the Arab's Islam.

So any black person that prefers Islam needs to gravitate towards that, and leave the Arabs alone.

The koran is a badly plagiarized book of Judaism Christian and ancient arab polytheist religions.
The Koran is filled with so much hate and violence against non-believers (to which you refer to as infidels) especially towards Jews and Christians.

I will rather use it to wipe my pit-bull's sh1t of the pavement than touch that satanic scripture again.
