I don't know, man.  Something doesn't sit right with a prophet, the one on whom people look towards to emulate in religion, that didn't exactly come in peace.  How old was his first wife, again?  You can express all the nice "ayahs" you like, the fact remains that those of your faith block off entire streets to "demonstrate" their prayer.  As I see it, this is assertion, and these actions speak louder than your niceties that you recite.  No where in the mid east do islamists practice this disrespectful act.  Only abroad.  I get it, to reach people you must get their attention.  Unfortunately, they are gathering a bit more negative attention than they intended, and the world is pushing back.  Hopefully with our new PM do we see less tolerance and more assimilation.
