"Does This Man Represent One and a Half Billion Muslims in the World?"

“I feel like someone has broken into my home, killed my family and the police are blaming me!” - quote Washington, DC area Muslim.

There is no doubt that everyone in the United Sates is at last in agreement on at least one thing: Terrorists are Horrible

But what is not clear in the minds of Americans at this moment is the fact that Muslims are NOT terrorists. Islam does not teach terrorism, bombing, kidnapping, hijacking and murder. Quite the opposite is true. Even the "Jihad" [often misunderstood to mean "Holy War") is nothing like the newspapers and television media have portrayed it in the past. It was only recently, since the September 11, attack on New York and Washington, DC that the press and broadcast communications have taken the time to correct their most obvious mistakes in reporting.
