Maher Bill vs. Aslan Reza: Islam Is Not Violent, People Are…

Is  The ISLAMIC STATE THE ENEMY OF THE US of A?

or We Have Seen The Enemy, AND It Is US

How to unpack stereotypes: Don't take Anything Personally

"Aslan Reza is absolutely correct that Islam is not violent per se, but that it is people who are violent. History is full of violent and terrible events attributable in whole or in part to all religions. Furthermore, across all religions violence is, sadly, not relegated to history. It may even be on the rise. However, Maher is also correct to point out that in the modern day one religion stands out from the others as more prone to political distortion and violence.
