Folks, you don't understand Islam

Ok, you Americans and Westerners in general talk about equality and criticize us the Muslims for trivial things. However, all your values are still abstract. Take ,for example, women's rights that you all call for- but how many female-secretaries in America, Engalnd, France, and all compared to male appointees. Americans are now afraid of Barack Obama for his so-called Islamic background? Where is equality and respect that you talk about?

Yes Barack likes Islam and Muslims and he deserves a medal for that. His political views are really similar to ours. We want American troops out of Iraq as soon as possible. Islam is not your enemy, but you are the enemies of yourselves. Salam or Peace
