DVD Reviews of Inside Islam (History Channel)

DVD Review: The truth is not on the surface
Summary: 3 Stars

Let me respond first of all to this review and everyone else who says Islam is a religion of terror. It may be that women are oppressed in so called Islamic countries, but this is do to the culture of the country, not the relgion. Islam is not a facist religion of hate but has been the most peaceful among the three monotheistic faiths.It has lived sided by side with Christians and Jews and allowed them to worship freely when Muslims were in charge for more than a thousand years.

This film shows some aspects of Islam but it is still missing a few elements. It has some good points and is certainly worth watching but one should not judge Islam just from watching this film, nor from hearing comments like the ones stated in the reviews. As far as things left out like the death penalty and Jihad, Saudi Arabia enforces the Death Penalty and chops a persons head off for murder. Beacuse of strict laws like this, it has the lowest crime rat in the world.

Compare that with America who leads all industrialized nations in murder , rape , robbery, drug abuse, larceny, and embbezzlemnet. Who is oppressed, A muslim woman who covers herself up and does not need to struggle to work, or the American woman, who if is on her own and cannot find a job, must resort to pornography and prostitution to survive.

Jihad is being misused and I a condemn Bin Laden and his crew,
but as for Muslims being oppressed in Israel, who is really a terrorist. We must not be confused with resistance and Terror. Jihad is to defend ones person or estate and never to kill innocent people. I reccomend reading the Idiots guide to Islam, if one is serious about understanding Islam.
