The West simply can’t please the Muslim world. The Umma basically
manufacture reasons to hate the West. There’s a conspiracy theory to back up
each and every grievance for loathing the West. The infidels, in the minds of
most Muslims, are out to destroy their communities. However, their very Islamist
rules cripple a functioning society. Their one-and-only solutionTM to
every perceived problem is more Quran, more Islam, more aping of Muhammad, more
7th century barbarism - in one word, Islamism. That was, and
is, by far the loudest force in the Muslim world.
Very few, very precious few, look at the US, and the West in general, and
say, “How about emulating those successful folks?” The rest are shocked and
ask, “You want the Great Satan and his minions to be our role models!?” That
is enough to shut up most liberals in the Muslim world.
I had wondered about many
questions that had gone unanswered. After coming to North America, my life
was on auto-pilot and I hadn’t given much thought to those questions. Then,
9/11 acted as a catalyst. The Muslim mask of peace and tolerance was removed and
the hideous truth was in the open. No amount of evidence could convince the Umma
of America’s innocence.
I left Saudi Arabia for Canada in January. I filled out the Saudi customs
card as same as before. The trip was long and arduous.
I walked in my dorm room and firmly shut the door. I was a Muslim no more.
