The allegation that  cultural diversity is real and includes  very aggressive and malicious beliefs that can  neither be accommodated nor celebrated demonstrate the intolerance to not only Islam, Muslims and the Muslim Brotherhood but to anything remotely different to the American and West's belief.

Assertations that Islam is based on terrorism and flourished through aggression indicate the narrow-mindedness and real intent on defaming the peaceful religion. Quotes such as "To think that all religious leaders are peaceful like Jesus is to completely ignore cultural diversity" illustrating  another example for in fact one of Islam's major principles regulates that to be a good Muslim one must respect and believe in the divine religions, their messengers and their holy texts

To oppose Islam and The Brotherhood exposes the extent of unlimited hatred revealing both Islamophobic and Ikhwaniphobic tendencies. Muslims and Muslim organizations adamantly condemn such violence against both Muslims and non-Muslims.

Extremists kill fellow Muslims also in many Muslim countries because they were of a different sect, clan, ethnicity or political belief, or were innocent worshippers the most recent includes the bombings in Pakistan which in fact was condemned and slammed by all Muslim scholars and intellectuals, movements including the Muslim Brotherhood.

In fact worldwide interaction of religions, creeds and cultures is what has made the world flourish with its multiculturalism and using such attacks as the September 11 as an excuse to call all Muslims as terrorists is not only unfair but ignorant. Any effort to embrace the Muslim citizens would definitely help reject the nonsense of Us versus Them and see everyone living in this or any Western country proving that there is no war or act of conquest at play. IF this is attained it could be ascertained that there is a difference between Muslims and those characterized as Islamic extremists.

In all reality the 9/11 incident has affected each and every individual including Muslims, who are our brothers and sisters in humanity. Muslims remember the pain of losing family members, friends or loved ones; they understand the worth of human life emphasized in Islam.

There is no such thing as militant Islam any more than there is militant Christianity, Judaism. However there are extremist Muslims, Christians, and Jews all who violate the teachings of their own faiths which are not militant.

Building a Mosque and Islamic Cultural centre close to Ground Zero or any other area in the U.S. or Europe  is not a disgrace to the memory of people who died in the tragic 9/11 attack it is an effort by all to continue in the path of life in through peaceful and tolerant measures.

Time has come to give peace a chance, give Islam a chance and stop using it as a scapegoat every time there is an attack or act of violence perpetrated solely by conspirators.
