I felt that an editorial would be most suited for this topic.  Let me begin by saying that the way Osama Bin Laden has stereotyped Islam is appalling.  I have studied Islam for three years and I know it is a religion of peace and I am fascinated by it. The prophet Muhammad of Arabia was himself protected by a Christian king of Abysinnia (Ethiopia) during his travels and often aided by Jews.  Muhammad was a very understanding and forgiving man and was granted the name Al-Anin, "The trusted one".  Muhammad knew Christians, Jews, and Pagans alike.  He, in fact, spoke of Christians and Jews as people of the book, believers in the one true god.
