I'm an Arab and I'm not a terrorist, nor are anyone of my 300 or so relatives. Hey, guess what? I'm not Muslim either. I'm a Christian Arab, yes there are such people. How ridiculous of a question. If people actually have to think about that, then I'm convinced there's very little hope.... They've done their job in brainwashing the American people.
I'm no expert on the Middle East but I'm fairly certain that Christianity started somewhere over there and it stands to reason there might be one or two Arab Christians wandering around.
Of the Muslims I know, who are generally Arab, I've been impressed with their gentle nature. I don't delude myself into believing all Muslim Arabs are nice because I know first hand that bad people come in all flavors.

Do you think that the whole world are full of nice people!!!!
You don't need to be an expert to know that There are good and bad people everywhere.
and some people are pedophiles.
INcluding plenty Arabs,, or you havent seen any 12 and 13 year old girls getting married????
In the 1500's it was expected for (common) men in their 30's to marry women in their early teens. During the 19th century 12-15 was the norm for women to marry. Even in the early 1900's not being married by 18, you were a old maid and a spinster.
I have a close friend from Pakistan who is Muslim and says that he feels safer amongst Christians in Pakistan than his own Muslim counterparts in Pakistan.
He does not agree with the Christian religion, he just feels that the radicals have taken over his religion.
P.S. I got him hooked on the Three Stooges! (I don't have the heart to tell him they're Jewish)
Arabs in Middle East( Muslims and Christians) have one case to live in peace and Dignity .
Some people think that when they accuse the Arab muslims ,they will be loved and welcomed from the west.
Christians and Muslims coexisted for a long time, but with today’s extremist Islamic views sweeping the Middle East, we are seeing large numbers of attacks/murders/forced to convert of Christians, and other religions by Muslims. Where is peace and dignity in that? And most importantly, where are the moderate Muslims?
The West love and welcome people that respect their law of their land, learn their language, learn and respect their culture. Remember that if and when you decide to live there.

I may be wrong in assuming that English is not your first language. If I'm wrong, I apologize. But... I'm not sure why your comment used two "confused" and one "rolleyes" smiley(s) since I just said the same thing. Why would you intimate a contradiction only to restate what I'd previously posted? I believe you misunderstood my post so please read it again more carefully.

I am Egyptain and I live in Egypt so of course Arabic is my mother tongue.
Honesty my first foreign language is french , English is the second and still working on it.
Maybe I misunderstood your post sorry for that.. my understanding skills are not very good, but I used to hear that Muslim arabs are not nice or have gentle nature .
I am always alert for self-defence here..
