Summary: | The conflict between Islam and West is evident since the fall of the Othmanly state. The West never acknowledged the positive civilizational impact of Islam on them.

The West in general and the US in particular have the potentials as well as moral obligations to forge unity and peace by eradicating injustice and exploitation and by promoting economic freedom and well-being in the Muslim world. |
