“They smashed the bed where Musharraf was hiding underneath and he screamed, so they grabbed him and dragged him out into the street. The children ran out, too, and were screaming. His daughter, Kushi – she is just 11 – fell on the feet of those men, pleading ‘Don’t kill my father’. She tried to save him but they beat him to death in the middle of the street and threw him in the gutter.”

Please read the rest of this article…we couldn’t read it in one sitting…we read it a few sentences at a time because after every few sentences we wanted to vomit.

We can’t even begin to fathom the evilness. Not even the worst psycho, horror, thriller can prepare us for what we’re reading here and even begin to understand the fear these people must have lived through and continue to live through.

If you believe in God, Allah, Buddha, Jesus, whatever…this is the time to pray.

Many of you, like myself and my family are Muslim. This could’ve been my family, this could’ve been your family.

If you think for even ONE second we think you should go out and harm Hindus – you’re STUPID. This whole post is about how we’ve lost our humanity. Go hug a Hindu, go hug a Muslim, go hug a Sikh, go hug a Christian, go hug a Buddhist, go hug non-believers, go hug people different from you, and remind each other that there MUST be some good left in this world. Somewhere…
