The religion of Peace

I found this most appalling website, call The Religion of Peace. It is supposed to be a sarcastic name, based on the origin of the word Islam. The website has the most despicable news analysis, and op-eds which should all direct you to one conclusion, that Islam is a religion that calls for murder!
It tries to bring out all the slightest mentions of terrorism relating to Islam to say that this is what Islam is about. I am not really a Muslim, and I constantly criticise Islamic practices, and political Islam and Islamic militant movements. My criticism is often based on ideological terms, and not mere rhetoric like this one!
The website asks if there is so many terrorist among Muslim groups then it must be Islam behind this!
Guess what? NO!
Let's try to look at the situation over again. Which part of the world has been subjected to colonialism and western interference more than any other Place? it is by far the Middle East, no? and there is one dominant religious group here: Muslims.
So it is only logical that rejection for this situation can appear amongst Muslims. And since Muslims identify themselves as a group, It is only natural that they would act as such! Just like Americans were united against Al-Qaida Terrorism then Muslims have to be united against Bush&Blair's terrorism!
