Poof..

When the average person opens up a dictionary in their mind and looks up the word Muslim--poof- Ososma Bin ladins Picture pops up next to it.

Well I hate to tell you the average American never even heard word Muslim or Islam .

Let alone had an inkling o f an idea what a Muslim was till we learned about it on TV Sept 11.

Personally I don't think that September 11th is a good evangelist tool, for Islam.

Doesn't exactly make me want to become one, or know anything about that religion.

I made everyone in America now knows about Muslim and Islam.

What do you think?

Also with Zacoward guy in Iraq is making the Mosques look like explosives storage areas not houses of prayer? Now we will say a mosque is a place terrorist store weapons.

Making the eyes watching think the wrong things about Islam. We didn't even know the dirty guy called Arafat was a Muslim.

Just thought he looked like a homeless guy than need a new set of clothes.

America is a basically secular country but we are learning about world religion on the news drama and the Arab language too.

I personally didn't learn about Islam till I married the Turk. I had never know anything about it.

Right when my Dad said "We shouldn't even let one of them in our country" as he walked me down the isle to marry the Turk.

I thought middle east people were buddist what ever that is or something.

Ya know, calling people "Poofs" is not a good way to get started around here.

He's the one calling people Poofs, then wants us to open our one-eye.

Sick.

I think this is humorous and good for Friday; hopefully it is not true that you had not heard of Muslim or Islam before 9/11, it makes me fear for my social security
