Islam, ISIS & Buzzfeed: What You’re Not Being Told

Islam, ISIS & Buzzfeed: What You’re Not Being Told

 

We hear it every day: “Why aren’t Muslims speaking up against terrorism?” “Where are the Muslims denouncing ISIS?”

In Iraq, the largest peaceful gathering of human
beings on earth is the annual Arba'een proession that commemorates the
martyrdom of the Prophet Muhammad's grandson Hussain. It's an act of
defiance against groups like #ISIS who plot to kill participants. So why did BuzzFeed News dismiss this as 'fake news'?

 A Palestinian man tries to stop work by an Israeli bulldozer during a protest outside the village of Deir Qaddis, near the West Bank city of Ramallah, Wednesday, July 13, 2016. Dozens of Palestinians demonstrated Wednesday in front of Israeli bulldozers that were bulldozing land outside Deir Qaddis village near Ramallah for an apparent plan to expand a nearby Jewish settlement. The protesters forced the bulldozers to stop, but residents said they resumed work after the protesters left the area.
