It’s funny how Muslims cry out over Islamophobia in India, but are silent when it comes to confronting internal discrimination and extremism within Islam itself? Why does Islam pose issues with Extremism not just in India, but in Europe and the US as well? Why does the world have gripes with Islam, but not necessarily with Buddhism?

Fix Islam first. Fix the Middle East. Fix Pakistan extremism, which kills Hindus every day. Tackle the China Uyghur genocide.

The palpable anti-Muslim hate in India as instigated by the BJP, is downright rotten. However, the Muslims cannot shirk responsibility for what is going against them. The regressive medieval show that they put on in the name of their religion and their religious and cultural artifacts cannot but invite derision in any progressive society. While BJP is legally and moralistically wrong, they are exposing the dirty underbelly of Islam that has come to haunt the western societies. Unless the depraved patriarchal culture of Islam owns up to this naked truth about them, they are but the face of Taliban in Afghanistan to all decent, non-BJP, and non-political human beings on this planet. Islamophobia is the cover under which Muslims find excuses for why they are seen as abhorrent. Step into the 21st century and smell the roses along with the rest of humanity, and you will see a world that is welcoming of the Muslims.
