Nov 2001 Why do so many Muslims hate the United States? What has America done to alienate so many people in the Muslim world? These are the questions that former Pakistani cricketer turned politician, Imran Khan, tries to answer in this latest offering of the Unreported World series. At Islamabad's Women's College, a concert for peace is taking Place. The students are mainly from privileged, middle-class backgrounds. If you were looking for Muslims that sympathised with the West, this would be the first Place you would go. But even here, amongst the more liberal, "Westernised" Pakistanis, anti-American feeling is riding high. "It's as if one white life was far more important than thousands of black or brown lives," comments one young, educated, middle-class woman. "They feel they can basically come in, use as they please, and then, when they want, they can just walk across the border, go somewhere else, and do exactly as they please there," complains another. The underlying feeling here is clearly that the US only cares or acts when its own people are at risk. If these liberal, cosmopolitan women feel this way about America, how must those who do not benefit from the Western way of life feel?

tahu59: the rules to b followed in nihad are as follows 1:Fight against the enemy soldiers ONLY. 2:Civillians should not be harmed. 3:If the enemy's soldier surrenders, dnt kill him, rather take him with you to a safe place. 3:When you win, donot destroy the city, donot start looting. 4:If you win, protect the people of the city, you have concoured. 5:If you win, respect the people of the city, their properties,their women and children. Remember, islam never says to kill innocent people

Dollitle zoo: I never said that muslims are prospers, leaving a few countries like dubai, and other few middle eastern countries. secondly prosperity was not the issue of non muslims. your issue is terrorism, which you equat to jihad.Tell me have you ever tried to study islam at your own. have you ever studies any islamic book.Probably not. because you just blindly believe what news channels tell you.but if muslims believe what is written in quran, you question it??why dual standards??

saimi 'what are the rules which are to be followed' Rule based religions (such as Judiasm, Mormonisn, JW, Islam, christian Science) are legalistic. You are saved by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ, not by works, least anyone should boast.

You can read media all over the world be it China, India, Japan or any non muslim nation in the world and you will find the same opinion about islam. Islam in Iran had a scholar in power in the Ayatollah but it was still a disaster and one has to ask under which circumstance will islam or muslims prosper. The sad fact is Saudi Arabia has been the first muslim nation and in the 30's with no break from islam they were 90% semi nomadic till West lifted them from the doldrums with money and markets.

Listen all non muslims. You only speak about jihad and equate it to terrorism.First go and study what islam is what jihad is. what are the rules which are to be followed in jihad. Most of you dont do research on the points you have objection on, but just unleash your venom against islam.You people only know as mush as you are told by western governed media.You just see one side of pic. Now see the other.Dnt just realy on one verse of quran.read the background and foreground of that ayat too

Jehaad has been common for centuries and persecution by Muslim.Watch Bangladesh 1971 war when Pakistani army raped,massacred and cut into pieces millions of people.

Don't forget Imran that Pakistan is the biggest Terrorist based.All terrorist are trained in Pakistan.The sikh Guru Tegh Bahadur Singh gave up hus life as a result of Jehad by emperor Aurengzeb

Reza....one is fighting in uniform with honour at a battlefield as men. The other is fighting from behind your mother's skirt and using your children as shields. If you dont know the difference then all I can say is you need to find out what "rules of engagement" are and what history says about "honour in battle" and this relates to honourable nations. These honourable nations are today's great nations because even in defeat they knew all about honour in battle.

A muslim wouldnt know the difference between wars and terrorism. It is after all an islamic myopia. Shame this little detail is the beginning of the end as muslims walk in a trance into certain disaster. There is no difference either between a people running a country vs many many groups so enjoy your little anarchy courtesy of this lack of understanding.
