I am saddened and appalled by what I see in the news. I cringe at the media trying to find an angle to lure us into their ratings war. Everyone is coming out of the woodwork spouting half-truths to justify their own causes and agendas.
No one seems to care that innocent lives were lost and these tragedies keep happening.
We are quick to label the killers as evil but we fail to find fault in ourselves for what is happening in the world. We seem to put more value on pushing our truth than remembering what was lost.
It seems that human lives have value but the amount of value depends on your address. Why are Western lives lost at a premium and others are merely numbers on a tally board?
This will not change over night but we need to stop seeing the world with a blind eye and open wide to see the truth.
Once the truth is revealed, are you willing to make sacrifices in order to make a real change in the world?

When the Newtown school shooting tragedy took place. There was one even worse massacre of children in Beslan, North Ossetia, Russian Federation on Sept 1st, 2004. Around 1,100 people were taken hostage by Chechen terrorists, 777 were school children of which 186 kids died. Did many in the West take notice? Not a lot since this was far away in southern Russia.

Islam is a religion of peace, but extremists use Islam and the name of God to murder fellow muslims and others of different religious belirfs and views. So yes some people in the West do have Islam phobia.
