    I am an Indian, non-Muslim, and I am symapthetic to many of your views, especially on the suffering of the Palestinian people. I do however, would like to raise issue with your causes. Are you motivated out of compassion for your fellow humans or just for Muslims? I see a lot about the suffering meted out to Muslims by non-Muslims. But nothing about the exploitation that exists in Muslim lands. I mean for all the UK's faults, British Muslims and immmigrants in general are much much better treated than immigrants to Arab lands. I know many Indians, Pakistanis, Bangladeshis in the Gulf and Saudi Arabia and to a lesser extent in Malaysia who have had to suffer xenophobia, exploitation (even a Indian Muslim's business "Arabised" on one occasion. For all its faults, the secular western tradition, especially in the UK allows Muslims more space to prosper than the authoritarian regimes that dominate much of the Muslim world.
