l mean for years l had this impression , this idea that the purity and perfection an only be taken gracefully and being well respected , but now..everything good seems to be blown away.
the fact is , they never knew him , they never met him , they were born and still he didn’t exist when they came to the world , that man , that glorious man , that perfect man , the father of his generation and so the generation after his , he isn’t just like ” he means to us a lot” he means everything to us , he’s like this ongoing passion giver this all time present guider in our lives , this amazingly talented human in giving away everything from the bottom of his heart , no one can be as merciful as he was , no one can be as present in our minds and souls as he has always been and always will be .So there is one thing l could say . even the people who never knew him and even long after his death they were so affected and touched by his unlimited ability to forgive the others , if you only knew how much he loved us even before we existed and.. once you know him , believe me everything will change .
who talks about women rights when he were the one to tell men to love their wives , their mothers and daughters and all women as equal creatures and living human beings who need men as much as men need them . l confess l may not be someone who really knows him very well , l may not do some things he told us to do but l do know one thing : that he is the most incredible man the world has ever known .
peace be upon him .

Je m'étends un peu là dessus dans mon billet de ce matin. Maintenant, les musulmans, dans leur réactions doivent agir avrc doigté et finesse. Le fait que x hait y et que z accuse w de tenter de le déstabiliser est loin de nous servir. La haine des arabes les uns envers les autres est savamment entretenue par les dirigeants et les extrémistes. Elle ne nous entrainera que vers notre perte.

Personally, I think that the Danish need to say, "Oh. Well, we didn't mean it that way and we're sorry." which they already did, I think, and what's more - the Muslim world needs to hear it. Which also means that the Muslim world needs to listen - and in my sphere of the world, every Muslim I know has been pretty lucid about the whole thing. They don't like the cartoons and they don't like the violence - but the media seems to only want to give them two choices. What I would like the media to cover would be the Muslims that aren't breaking stuff. I mean... there are probably people in some parts of the world saying... "Hey, what are we going to do today?" "I know, I know - if we break some things and scream loud, we can show up on CNN and watch ourselves! We'll be famous!" "nah... I want to see if Nadine can sneak past her father instead." "Bring her along! Tell her father we're going to protest the cartoons, she'll be let out!" "Yeah, but then her father might come. You know how he is..." "Oh. Right. We'll need a diversion...." "A diversion?..." "We'll just blow a car up or something...." I don't really think that they say anything like the above. It's sort of the Monty Pythonish. Now, that's a bit facetious (and I apologize to anyone named Nadine, anyone trying to sneak anyone named Nadine out, and the parents and extended family of anyone named Nadine) - but the point here is that the snarling faces on television aren't... well, they aren't being portrayed as people, and part of that is their fault - and another part of that is the media's fault. These are, at the end of the day, our fellow human beings who laugh, smile, joke, want to procreate, like a nice meal and have a very interesting culture. They want their family to be safe, they want to grow old and watch their children grow old, they want to practice their religion... It's what the camera and reporter misses most of the time that solves issues. That's where citizen journalists come in, but... you know... we miss things too. Still, it seems strange that the media is playing the violence for about 30 minutes and the people telling everyone else to go home get 2 minutes. Shouldn't it be the opposite? Ahh, I don't know. What I do know is that it's all stupid, blown out of proportion, and being taken advantage of by the fringe elements of every culture on the planet. I wish the World Cup would hurry up. You know, until now I didn’t know that the Danish had a sense of humor (or that it was so easy to make bad jokes there).

What I would like the media to cover would be the Muslims that aren’t breaking stuff. I mean… there are probably people in some parts of the world saying…

“Hey, what are we going to do today?”
“I know, I know – if we break some things and scream loud, we can show up on CNN and watch ourselves! We’ll be famous!”
“nah… I want to see if Nadine can sneak past her father instead.”

Aquí también hay de todo pero, al menos en el resumen que se nos ofrece, la tónica dominante es un rechazo a la violencia y una apuesta por el diálogo. [...]
