Winds of War: Muslim Culture or Islamic Religion?

A few weeks ago Saleem Siddiqui of HotConflict was on our Gathering Storm Radio Show. We discussed Islam and Muslim behavior and at one point we asked him why the recent unrest of the Muslim in non-Muslim countries. For example, making demands on those non-Islamic societies to accommodate their beliefs and wishes.

The Minneapolis airport problem with Muslim cabbies was one such example we posed to Mr. Siddiqui. We asked why these incidents happen and why those who believe in Islam demand such accommodations from non-Islamic societies.

His response was this. That these were not religious issues but cultural ones.

Basically, the religion of Islam was not at fault.
