Racism has to do with a hatred of a race,Itrath Syed, not a cultural decision or religion.
Reader comment on item: Canadian Muslims Protest "Honor Killing" Label As Racist

People of religion are of all different races including Muslims. This sounds very ignorant and again the whinning of radical muslims so they can intimidate and drag their oppressive demands into Western culture where we have freedom to choose. God gave people rights to choose how they live not mandated by a religion. It is Christians that are persecuted, not muslims! Is there a call of racism against Christians? Please Itrath, take your thinking out of Canada. It is not welcome. A PHD in Islamaphobia? It should be more a PHD in Christianaphobia, really...check the statistics around the world and who is it killing Christians, muslims and other unbelievers? Muslims!!!! It is a ploy of evil to claim to be the victim and get sympathy. Independent, self-reliant, honest individuals do not need to do that. Their generous, righteous and kind lives speak for themselves!
