now that terrorism is coming home, first nairobi, then new york, then kabul, then baghdad, and now london it won’t be long until we are all dodging bullets and bombs. wait, i already live in los angeles, where little girls are being shot by SWAT snipers, and gang bangers are shooting senior citizens. i already live in a terrorist community where on a good year 2000 folks are murdered, but now the threat may come from across the seas or across national boarders.
we all need to learn what is means to become a true muslim (arabic for one who surrenders) to learn what makes most of the world tick (including me). no, don’t study in a religious school in jalalabad , but learn some of the jargon of the jihadist and of the faith walks of others. like women in islamic nations who wear headscarfs. these garments are called a:
hijab
now in the conquered nation of afghanistan, they wore a special headscarf called a:
burka
so now we’ve all learned something. the people of mid asia (india, pakistan, afganistan) wear burkas, and the egyptians, saudi arabians, and moors wear hijabs.
