An Imam from India visits Israel

Better yet, he actually LIKED the country: http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3439462,00.html.

Of course, how long do you think it will be before there is a fatwah issued against him and he is either killed or forced into hiding? Because, you know, the Religion of Peace is SO tolerant of dissenting voices within its ranks.

"My impression was initially that the Israelis are certainly dominating Muslims out here. Once I came here, that impression completely changed," Ilaysi said. "I saw the reality on the ground, the mutual respect Israeli Arabs and Israeli Jews have for each other. Constant conflict is not the reality here," Ilaysi said, describing his visit to the Israeli-Arab village of Abu Gosh, frequented by Israeli Jews.

This is great that he was able to see what civilized religious people are like and he was tolerant enough to change his views.

I wrote a post on this. Its a start, though I doubt that it will make a difference.
