Over 30,000 Muslims in the UK Marched Against ISIS

LOGIC & Common Sense mandates:

If, All "christians" are not Catholic/Methodist/Baptist, yet they Are All "christian"

Then the same applies as; Not ALL Muslims are ISIS, but All of ISIS Are Muslim.....

Over 30,000 Muslims in the UK Marched Against ISIS — Of Course You Didn't Hear About It

More than 30,000 Muslims from around the world 
congregated at a farm in the United Kingdom for
 a three-day event protesting ISIS and religious 
extremism, the Independent reported. The 
protest was part of the 50th annual 
Jalsa Salana, an annual convention and 
gathering for Ahmadiyya Muslims.
The Ahmadiyya sect was founded in India in 
1889 and faced persecution and violence from 
religious extremists in countries abroad. 
Despite their plight, the religious movement's 
official motto is "Love for all, hatred for none" 
and their philosophy is rooted in tolerance 
over extremism.

Media coverage of this large-scale gathering 
was barely covered in mainstream U.S. news. 
Even though this image flies in the face of 
comments from right-wing pundits and 
seemingly anti-Islam commentators who often 
ask for Muslims to speak out against Islamic 
terrorism. The truth is Muslims have condemned 
extremism repeatedly, and many people are
 just not listening. 
Muslims have condemned the 
Bastille Day attacks and the 
Orlando shooting massacre. In December, nearly 
70,000 Muslim clerics denounced religious 
extremism. In Belgium, Muslims condemned 
the terrorist attack in Brussels and donated blood. 
These statements have happened so often 
that in 2012, a professor at the University of 
North Carolina compiled a list of them from the 
global Muslim community.

And if you're still not convinced, there's a whole 
Tumblr blog titled "Muslims Condemning Things," 
listing cases where, you know, Muslims have 
condemning terrorism and other acts of hatred.
Clearly, the question shouldn't be whether Muslims
 — who have the highest number of casualties 
from "Islamic extremism" — are condemning
 terrorism worldwide.
Instead, we should be affirming Muslims that 
the burden of responsibility does not fall on 
their shoulders.

For me it is All About Being of Service & Living the Life of the Give-Away....

Being Mindful of those who are unable to speak for themselves; our Non-Two Legged Relations and the Future Generations.

It's about walking on the Canka Luta Waste Behind the Cannunpa and the ceremonies.

It's about Mindfulness and Respect. It's about Honesty and owning up to my foibles.
