To my brothers and sisters in Islam, the first and foremost characteristic of the Anbiyyah (alaihumus salam) was forebearance. Look beyond the propaganda and realize that this is another great game battle. Transcend the microscopic and see whats happening at the macroscopic level.

Yeh I realize.... it's a fight largely between one group who happens to be one thing, and another who happens to be another thing.
I don't think the Western media sources that I've been reading have really mis-portrayed that (one or two that Got5 had mentioned). They've mentioned that the differences in religion, but haven't focused on them as though they are the cause.
