    Default 'Islamophobia' a threat to world security, say Muslim states

    The world's Muslim countries warned Wednesday that an "alarming" rise in anti-Islamic insults and attacks in the West has become a threat to international security.

    The Organisation of the Islamic Conference (OIC) called on Europe and America to take stronger measures against 'Islamophobia' in a report prepared for a summit of the group's 57 members in Dakar on Thursday and Friday.

    The report by a special OIC monitoring group said the organisation was struggling to get the West to understand that Islamophobia "has dangerous implications on global peace and security" and to convince western powers to do more.

    Islamic leaders have long warned that perceptions linking Muslims to terrorism, especially since the September 11, 2001 Al-Qaeda attacks on the United States, would make Muslims more radical.

    The West must understand that "the war against terror cannot be successful without the support of Muslim countries," said the report.

    OIC leaders have expressed renewed concern following events such as the publication in Denmark of cartoons lampooning the Prophet Mohammed and a plan by the Dutch far-right MP Geert Wilders to release a film calling the Koran "fascist".

    The OIC said Islam had faced constant attacks since it was created "but in recent years the phenomenon has assumed alarming proportions and has become a major cause of concern for the Muslim world."

    The monitoring group called on Europe and North America to do more, through laws and social action, to protect Muslims from threats and discrimination and prevent insults against Islam's religious symbols.

    So let me get this straight if we "think" or possible look at a Muslim as if he may be up to something than they will be. Sounds kind of backward to me.

    I understand that if provoked people will retaliate but when your whole religion is being questioned the best thing you can do is DISPEL those stereotypes NOT reinforce them!!!

    If you don't want people thinking your all terrorist than don't become a terrorist just to "show them you mean business". My God what a bunch of crap!!!!!!!

    The hypocrisy is so thick in that article you can cut it with a knife. I don't believe I've read anything so insane in quite some time.

    "Yeah, so people of our religon kill millions of people, that's no reason for all of you to hate us."

    Un-fucking-believable.

    Sounds as if someone is attempting to guilt us into letting our guard down...

    The religion of perpetual outrage threatens again.

    Just makes me want to islam.

    The want to scare the islamophobs, but they better worry about us islamobigots.
    When I die I'm sure to go to heaven, cause I spent my time in hell.

    You get more with a kind word and a two by four, than you do with just a kind word.

    Sorry bout that,

    1. Islam wants America to allow them to nuke us, then claim we did it.
    2. They want your children thrown into tree chippers.
    3. On the most part they are all ready to die for Islam.
    4. Some day they just might have too, if *Free People Everywhere* realize it before its too late.
    5. If the *Free Peoples Everywhere* ever took a look at their Koran, they would be all angry enough to do it, themselves.
    6. Islam is nothing but *Pure Evil*.

    if you draw a line in the sand and proclaim everyone on the other side of the line to be your enemy, you should not, then, be surprised when people on the other side of the line start to feel as if you are their enemy.
