Commentary
I ran across two different news articles that, to use the aerial reconnaissance analogy, as seen from 500 feet, they're quite different.
But from 5,000 feet, the view is quite telling.
The first piece is from Q8NRI.com. An internet news portal specifically designed, as they put it, to be "the ultimate internet home for non-resident Indians in Kuwait."
Here's just a tid-bit of the article; (emphasis mine)
Some 195 people from different nationalities in Kuwait have converted to Islam during the holy month of Ramadan, Islam Presentation Committee said here Saturday.The committee is expected to receive more people wishing to join the tolerant religion of Islam during the fasting month of Ramadan, he [Jamal Al-Shatti, Director General of the Islam Presentation Committee] said.
And in the Indian state of West Bengal, complete with an exploding Muslim population (no pun intended, well... yes it was), we have this from the Christian Post;
Four months after a recent convert to Christianity from Islam in eastern India's West Bengal state was stripped and beaten, about 50 Muslim extremists yesterday disrupted a prayer meeting held in her home, threatening to burn it down if she did not return to Islam, area Christians said.The extremists warned Selina Bibi of Motijil village in Murshidabad district that if she did not return to Islam, then she must either leave the area or see her house burned down.
I'm not trying to be bigoted or prejudice, but the latter article is quite honestly, just one of an unknown number of examples that happen on a regular and bloody basis.
