Quran made me a Better Person,a Better Christian, a Better Clergywoman
That the Holy Qur’an was sent to benefit all mankind — not one particular religion or race — has been reaffirmed by an American priest who doesn’t mince words while admitting that reading the holy book has made her “a better person, a better Christian and a better clergywoman.It is the universal appeal of the Qur’an that brought the Rev. Jamie Hamilton close to Islam despite Western stereotyping of Islam and Muslims.
Hamilton, from the Religion Department at Phillips Exeter Academy, New Hampshire, is a scholar of comparative religion.During her recent visit to the Kingdom, she had discussions with several intellectuals including Prince Faisal bin Abdullah, minister of education. She told Arab News that the Holy Qur’an has a lot to offer people as it gives them structure, guidelines and purpose, “instead of just being focused on material things.”
Hamilton's retrospection of 9/11 vis-à-vis Islam changed her perception about Muslims. Advising people to read the Qur’an, she said: “So many people have their own baseless judgments about Qur’an and Islam … it absolutely surprises me how people make judgments on something they have not read.” She added: “Once I realized that Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) was preaching to followers of all divine books, I realized that I too was part of his community.”
Hamilton, who is writing a book on Islam, explained: “As I started to study Islam, I could see that Christians and Muslims shared many ideas and approaches to our religions.”
The scholar, who quotes extensively from the Qur’an and Hadith, cherishes her insights about Islam. “The contemplation of the verses of the Qur’an has helped me deepen my faith.”

Israel the only democracy with Suppressed Voices
Israel is back in News again for wrong reasons as usual.. this time for killing its own agent who worked for the most unethical organization on face of this earth called Mossad.
The sin of the agent was He was going to expose the dirty games of Mossad.
We see the Israel and USA teach lessons everyday to the Arab world to open up its media and allow people to voice there opinions,their throats go dry barking a lot about freedom of speech but this same Israel sits cool on a big episode like killing there own people in the name of protecting the state of Israel.
The so called independent state of Israel built on grabbed land of Palestinians feel that the Jewish world is still in a position to do what it wants but we should be reminded that world has changed a lot one indication of which is Israel and its unethical big brother Uncle Sam got a humiliating defeat in UNESCO vote on palestine observer state.
Even when you see the Google News page you will find that any news which Israel wants to supress is cooly hidden from public arena and news which hardly impacts others is put on top...eg. Zygier's murder has been hidden and murder of a sportsman girlfriend is the top news.
Eitan Cabel (Labor) said the following words “The current episode should lead to a shake-up in all the branches of the security establishment,” he said. “When it comes to anything to do with media, [the attempt to suppress coverage] shows conservatism or ignorance or both. Perhaps our boys haven’t noticed but the world has changed.”
TOI reports this
"The Mossad chief passionately urged media outlets not to report details of the 'Foreign Correspondent' programme, saying it would deeply embarrass the security services.
One Editor complained that for too long gag orders had frustrated the healthy functioning of the press, and a review was needed to take account of changes in the media landscape.
"One editor accused the Mossad chief of 'treating the Israeli public like fools'.

News on Palestine Vote ... And You still say MEDIA is not biased
Yesterday I was eagerly waiting to see the outcome of a UN vote on Palestine statehood which made Israel and Uncle Sam (USA) to bite dust a historic win for Palestine which gave them 139 yes and gave the aggressor regimes like USA and Israel just 9 votes as NO .... had it been other way round the whole world Media like BBC and CNN would have run prime time news
See this interesting Map taken from http://www.lemonde.fr/proche-orient/article/2012/11/30/qui-a-vote-quoi-a-l-onu-sur-la-palestine_1798387_3218.html
Google the major hub for world to see the latest happenings around the world puts this on his world news page
Seeing all this just compare this with BIG news for Malala Yosufzai who was claimed to be hit by a bullet from Taliban which could not be independently verified and top of this they say she was fighting for the rights of Women to get education as if Islam does not allow Women to study.
Respected mother of the Believers Hazrath Ayesha Rz. was the one to whom very knowledgeable companions of the Prophet would go for clarifications on critical issues and She would give her expert view. It is the claim of the Scholars of Islam that without her, half of the Ilm-I-Hadith [knowledge, understanding of the Hadith (and Islam)] would have perished.
So it is a moral bankruptcy of the West to target Islam on Education of Women ... Islam does not stop anyone from acquiring knowledge how can it when its first revelation in the final book (Quran) starts with Read (Chapter Iqra), Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said, "Seeking knowledge is mandatory for every Muslim.''
Quran says “If any do deeds of righteousness, be they male or female and have faith, they will enter Heaven and not the least injustice will be done to them.”
So just dont take the Media blindly whatever the Media projects may not be the true story...infact Media was exposed in India recently when a big Media house was trying to strike a deal with a political person whose black deeds will be hidden if he agrees to give advertisements to this Media house ...watch it here
