It made me think and it shoud make us think ‘cause everyday we see the equation Muslim = bad guy applied easily. Yet… I feel something’s not right. I think I don’t like the fact that Americans and Muslims are represented as unified block; Islam, like Christianism, is just a loose container-word for a big variety of faiths and a big variety of “how to experience” faiths. This representation carry out the idea of two big solid blocks facing one another, leading to the inavitable clash of civilisation, and the inevitable victory (yes size do matters!) of the Muslim one over the American. Until we see two civilisations we can’t avoid the clash. When we’ll see variety and differences and incoherences and confusion we’ll be maybe ready to start finding a way to live together.
