How peaceful is peaceful ??? and then there's the Question if characterizing Islam as '' Peaceful'' and doing so under duress. That is, when you being pursued and hounded by people who brand you as totally irrationally and uncontrollablly violent... So you have Knee-Jerk reaction, Purely defensive and Purely self protective and blurt out that you're a '' Peaceful''. and you're absolutely and one hundred percent right in saying that. For, Islam is all about Peace and truth and Justic and Kindness and Compassion. But that is not what a accusers and tormenters are saying. They're pointing to all violent that is going on in different parts of the Muslim world, violence in which Muslims are involved in one way or another, and saying it that it is all Islam's fault. But what some of these people conveniently forget is that there are all kinda background factors and conditions that lead to violence in individuals, Groups, Nations, and Societies. they forgot that peace is on state of Human life and reality. another is strife and conflict. a third reality of human life is forse... Peace is the deal of state to which we all aspire and toward which we all work. Strif is the sad and glooming reality in which human lifeis all too often mined. Legitimate, lawful and Socitally sanctioned force is the instrument that human being have devised for minimizing and controlling strife and maximizing Peace.
The foundation of true and lasting peace on Earth and in any society is Justic, Love, Compassion, integrity, truth, reasonableness. and sound morality.
There are all kinda University Books, full of all kinds of theories that explain why and how people develop violent tendencies and behavior.
For example: Extreme Poverty, Deprivation, Hopelessness, Opression, Maginalization, Cruelty and Systematic discrimination and Abuse may potentially move people toward violence. So also may serious perseption of Injustic, Usurtion of proverty, abuse of power, Violation of basic rights and deeply help values such as honor, personal dignity and the life, honor and dignity of family members... Colonization, mass enslavement, Social and political tryanny, Occupation of Lands, Exploitation and stealing of resourses will all make nations and Societies rise up in revolt... This has been the History of the world. and Every one know that, You know that, I know that..............
That is not the excuse there are many poor people who are not Muslim and other religion which are not taught their children to become suicide bombers or plan the bombs to kill innocent people who are not involve in any politic .
The Muslim just dream to become the independent state that Siam will never allow that to happen even they have to exterminate all the Muslim in the Thai territory which they stole from Malaysia 160 years ago.
