Islam, the religion of peace

Thanks @bep @l-i-am @mike-amos and @mtnarch for your cooncerns.
It seems this is gonna be the last presence of the US in the Middle East for at least the next 2/3 decades. It will not waste his time flirting with mullas.... Their ideology is dangerous. I hope that world takes Iran's story as a lesson, not letting an ideology (especially Islam) take over... IMO World would be a much better world if ruled by wisdom and knowledge. Islam (to my understanding) has never been the religion of peace.... When I see Muslem extrimist in EU or US, I feel upset, and wish EU/US prevents its growth.
@mtnarch people of Iran, mainly, like and admire US people. Many of my good/smart friends had to emigrate to your eminent land. Who knows, maybe I had to/opt to either... -
Wish you the very best Majid

@MtnArch
I hope D. Trump makes the best decision, not wasting time and money. Iran ( I mean people of, not this governing bullshit apocalyptic ideology ) could be one of the best allies of the US and EU.
Otherwise, it turns into another North Korea...
Also, I hope to have the chance to relocate to the eminent land of the US. My situation is slightly better than your architect fellow
. I know a bit of English and am a fast learner to get the hang of wooden structures 
, hopefully.P.S. The Internet is still unstable, so I may not be able to reach out regularly.

I hope you get your wish. Also if I did not know better from your writing I would not know English was anything less that your first language
-
Stay well out there, Majid. Thoughts with you and your family as well as your compatriots.

It seems Iran (rejim) will soon face the music; this way, they will feel what it is like to be defenseless! This would be the finish point to a chapter of history! Let's see and hope to meet in a free Iran!
I appreciate all good memories, help, support... You made here... -
Stay safe Majid.
-
Like Rich said, getting noisy out there so hope you and yours remain somewhere quiet.

Just to make it clear that was sarcasm

@L-i-am believers have killed more, harsher and waster....Take WWI-II , Azteks , Muslims... i.e. Ideology is a powerful tool for manipulating minds not to see the truth/reality. Making a paradise in heaven=making a hell on the earth... Let's pray for stepping out of it to a world where logic and mutual respect define freedom.

In a world where Buddhist 'holy men' have declared the murder of Muslims to be right and so called Christians advocating the murder of doctors for doing things that are legal but not in their book et al. How can any of us declare Islam to be worse or better than othe faiths?
There will always be those humans who take the name of a faith, who declare they do the "Work of god" etc. What we need rid of is extremism.
I don't care what or who folk are as I gave up rationalising any of it. Decency to those around us is what is important.
We had a saying when I was a child, "Stretch it, don't tear it". There is another way of putting it which is more succinct, "Could not scratch their behinds without tearing it/bleeding".
Also, thinking of how 'men' of faith are. The inquisition? The Crusades? All nations and faiths go through the same situations where they act reprehensibly so, get rid of extremism and try to understand each other. putin, thinks he is a christian FE.
I hope you all have a great 2026, you and yours and thanks to the Sketchucation team for putting up with ALL of us. Yes, I have dropped the ball too so, sorry about that folks.
