This comment for a American man…

I was very impressed with this documentary. I saw this program at a film festival in Oregon last year. For me and others in the audience, it was eye-opening to see what life is like for people living in the hard-scrabble villages on the border of Pakistan and Afghanistan. I had no idea that these people, famous for their ferocity and warlike nature, are also incredibly hospitable to strangers as well. I had thought the Taliban had smothered these people with their horrible religious dogma, making them fundamentalist Islamic robots, but the program shows many normal Muslim villagers who still live with a welcoming spirit to outsiders, without hate, and without trying to convert people to Islam at the end of a gun.

One of the most interesting comments I heard in the documentary was from a village barber, who said that it is a blood law that he (and everyone else there) must welcome a stranger into their village, no matter if it is an American or bin Laden. He said everyone who comes peacefully to his door, must be shown the same help and hospitality. It was his duty. There was a part in the documentary showing a small school attended by village kids, learning in a way that was similar to how American kids learn – with textbooks and pencils – learning their local language as well as English. And it wasn't a religious school, thankfully. That gave me some hope for the future.

A welcome perspective on a little-understood and rarely visited part of the world. I recommend this program to everyone who has an interest in what's going on at the border of Afghanistan and Pakistan – the fascinating life of people living behind the headline news

I wonder if anyone can truly have respect for "all religions" if they hold that only theirs is the "real religion" or the only true religion? This would seem to belittle any other religious belief by the implication that it is not real or not true. 

the fear of Islam is the product of pure ignorance

people believe in everything what is told by media, and the media are controlled by government, which manipulates peoples beliefs

by repeating  those same sentences like : terrorism is bad, terrorism is the enemy of the whole nation, and finally : most of terrorists are Muslims, people come to simple conclusion terrorism=Islam

if the government wants it's citizens to hate someone for something it will sure find a way to do that  

it's all about politics and making money 

I have no opinion because it isn't my favorite subject .

I agree with Whitechalice and would like to emphasize that people do not fear from Islam but only some governments fear.

ISLAM We are Muslim. That means that we practice the religion of Islam. Muslims live in many different countries and cultures. The word Islam means "submission to God." Being a Muslim means following a way of life every day in order to please God. We pray five times a day. When we pray, we take off our shoes and kneel toward Mecca, a holy city in Saudi Arabia. ALLAH The word for God in Arabic, the language of our religion, is Allah. Nothing can be compared to Allah. Allah is different from all people and all things. Nothing is like Allah. We believe that Allah knows all things, can do all things, and has always existed. Everything exists because Allah wills, or wants, it to exist.
