A letter to A Terrorist (Part 2)

I wonder how you think. I wonder how your mind works. It's not enough that the world is already messed up, but you are adding misery to its misery! There are many ways for you to contribute in making this world a better place, but you chose the most destructive way. Your way of curing this world is unethical, immoral, illogical, and above all it's a sin. You chose revenge; that's not ethical, it's not moral, it's not logical, and it's a crime. You aim to conquer the enemies of Islam using the fascist ways. This is not jihad; it's not even related to Islam, not in ways and attitude, not in means, not even in goal.

There are million of ways for you to protect Islam -if that IS your goal- other than violence and aggressiveness. You will never reach what you want this way. Use your mind and think for awhile, how is killing innocent people going to help? Do you think that when you are killing yourself you are actually taking revenge and it's actually making a difference? That's not true, because the only one who's losing is you; moreover you are bringing shame to great Islam. So think again and take a look at the road you chose. See if it is legitimate. See if it is constructive not destructive. And then you will realize the truth, but only if you open up your eyes and mind.

We must help each other and take each other by the hand for a better peaceful future. Well, that might be out of reach for now, but what if each of us tried to help the other. Be friends, try to understand their deepest thoughts, and be close to them so that they do not get influenced to be involved in such extremist acts whatsoever. You and I could make a difference, and all of us could help building a better future. You and I can help some people, and those could help others too, till there's unity and harmony. No matter what our religion or background is, we are all humans and deserve to live in peace and in safe environments.
