Shalom! I'm a Messianic Jew(Judaic Christianity), and have Muslim friends. I've studied their religion, and we have talks on what we have in common, and in our differences. The facts are this, Islam is at its core a peaceful religion, but all non Muslims are to be second class citizens in Muslim countries, and there is a hatred that exist for Jews and the west as well. This has been the case since Islam's inception.

Remember the satanic verses that Muhammed had spoken? Interesting how when no one believed Him , and the idol makers were after him, that it was Ok to worship Allah's daughters. Then later claim Allah has no children? Yes Khaled I know of Sharia law too. Just like all religion, there is a point where it's highly overrated.
