Muslims can live peacefully with others as the rest of India has shown (although Pakistan tries its best to destroy the nation). Muslims simply have to start behaving in a more progressive manner and demand peace from the terrorists and fundamentalists.david i. matthews i really hope that one day Muslims come to realize that Hindus, Christians and other non-Muslims are their equals and that they too have a right to live in peace. i am sympathetic towards the Kashmiris, but I am deeply saddened by the Islamic terrorism that has led to the ethnic cleansing of Hindus, Buddhists and Christians from Kashmir.
