of the things behind this kind of life to go the joy of hatred against a really good and even muslims well let's talk about that i mean is there anything that you can tell us right now that you've uncovered of who is indeed profiting off these horrific human rights abuses are you looking for an exclusive look at something some people are making money you know it's not. it's not unknown that there's a gas pipeline of being built or there's a offshore gas. station in scituate there's a gas pipeline they want to try business and part of the reason is that some of the rich. who are living on the site of these condom industrial trying to destroy is all that's just part of the. soul so mum said to make money from the sonia part of white convivial curry that was independent journalist assad big. believe it was only forty years ago that the first cell phone call was made and since then we've gone from a massive device like the one michael douglas wanted in the film wall street to the sleek designs of today also work as tiny computers connecting us to the rest of the world but with this revolutiona

terrorism but the fact of the matter is most people did or die of terrorism in the world today are muslim. well that's exactly true there are more muslims dying at the hands of these terrorists than non muslims and i think i fully agree with matt that it's counterproductive it is counterproductive to the core message of the faith it is counterproductive it's kind of that it was for american foreign policy as well riis. no question about that i think exactly because by what peter king look at that what peter king is now this has already started he's come out day one and he's saying we need more surveillance of these young muslim men how much more surveillance do you need you know and do you understand the amount of resentment and the amount of conflicted identity and crisis of their minds of these muslim youth are going through that what we're trying to do is trying to help them forge a strong muslim and an american identity we are trying to make sure that the american muslim youth believe that there should be no conflict between their pledge of allegiance to their faith and their pledge of alle

well, it's similar to what her thought was. i'm just wondering if the number five had any other special significance in the muslim religion? >> you know, i honestly don't know. seven usually comes up big in most other traditions- i'm thinking christianity. i don't know the five- well, we'll see that with the five, it corresponds to the times of the day- you know, morning, midday, late afternoon, evening- so it corresponds to actually the light; there's a wonderful sense of beauty- beauty is really important in islam. yeah? >> well, the zakat- is that how you pronounce it? >> sounds good to me. >> well, this reminds me, a couple years ago, i had to- there was a visiting professor here from egypt, and we had to type an accounting book, an islamic accounting book. so all this stuff is starting to- it's bringing back to my memory about the alms to the poor, so that it's all set up- very different structure. yeah, they're very structured- there's a reason for everything and it all goes back- it's not just to make money or anything like that- it all goes back to the qur'an and the rules of- for religion, rather than money, money,

there's a tendency say, well, it kills muslims as well, which is serving this. t kills traditional muslim league, this attacks the military, the police and the government. but its focus on killing police and other things isn't because they're muslim. it's because they represent the state. so it is attacking the state and christians, and so that gets ms. castor because there are muslim deaths, well, then it's not religious and sectarian clashes. is still goes on a newspaper, and sometimes even state department coverage of egypt. that if there was a conflict, they call it a sec terry and clashed to which my reply is, no, it's a program. that's like calling the ku klux klan in the 19 twice in the south, oh, there were racial clashes in alabama last night, 25 people were killed. it's not. violence, there may be retaliatory violence but the aggression is going one way. how many have been burned or attacked? to my knowledge zero. broad numbers of churches begin numbers of churches but again i do want to say that all muslims are attacking all christians or anything of t

. >> so much of our conversation is driven by the right-wing, if they are screaming about muslims, wellat drives the conversation, and it becomes the democrats, do you want to just let the terrorists go? if it's a gun shooting the right-wing says how dare you! you are politicizing the situation! everybody shut up! and that divers the action. >> michael: right. cenk uygur, my friend always with something great to say about what is going on in the world, "the young turks" will be on right after this show. thanks so much for joining us on "the war room," cenk. when we come back, right here chris moody, the senior political writer at yahoo! joins us to talk about the political implications of what happened in boston today. that take you inside the headlines. real, gripping, current. documentaries... on current tv. >> obama: we still do not know who did this or why, and people shouldn't jump to conclusions before we have all of the facts, but make no mistake, we will get to the bottom of this, and we will find out who did this. we'll find out why they did this. any response -- any responsibl

terrorism but the fact of the matter is most people they don't die of terrorism in the world today are muslim well that's exactly true there are more muslims dying at the hands of these terrorists than non muslims and i think i fully agree with matt that it's counterproductive it is counterproductive to the core message of the faith it is counterproductive it's kind of that it was for american foreign policy as well riis. no question about that i think exactly because by what peter king look at that what peter king is now this has already started he's come out day one and he's saying we need more surveillance of these young muslim men how much more surveillance do you need you know and do you understand the amount of resentment and the amount of conflicted identity and crisis of their minds of these muslim youth are going through that what we're trying to do is trying to help them forge a strong muslim and an american identity we are trying to make sure that the american muslim youth believe that there should be no conflict between their pledge of allegiance to their faith and their pledge of alle

when you found out the brothers were muslim, what was your first reaction? >> wellyou know, obviously the vast majority of american muslims after 9/11 whenever there's an act of terrorism or mass murder whether it's the newtown, connecticut, school shooting or the aurora, colorado, dark knight batman killing, you know, the first thing comes to mind is please, god, don't let it be a muslim. we know that, you know, whenever there is an act of mass murder committed by a brown dude with a foreign sounding name, you know, it's something that casts a pal upon the entire muslim american community. there are muslim marathon runners. we grieve with the country. this is an attack on all bostonians and americans regardless of race, religion or ethnicity. >> and how does it make you feel when you hear that there may be ties to islamic extremism, at least with the older brother? >> well, you know, i always tell people that, you know, islamic extremists are about as muslim as the westboro baptist church is christian. it doesn't make them a religious expert or vanguard for, you kn

and there's a tendency when it kills muslim as well. which it certainly does. it's attacking the state and christians. and so that gets miscast because there are obviously muslim deaths. it's not religious and the sectarian clashes. it goes on in newspaper and sometimes even state department coverage of egypt. if a, you know, if there's a conflict they call it a sectarian clash. which implies no it's a program. that's like calling co clucks clan in, you know, 1920 in the there was racial clashes in alabama. twenty five people were killed. it's not the violation is the retaliatory. the aggression is going one way. and how many musics have i been attacked? to my knowledge number. large number of churches. i adopt want to say all muslim are attacking christian or anything of this kind. it's not just a clash between two forces. it's radical islamists versus the rest and christians are one of the principle topic. >> one of the cases we talk about in the book is the massacre in october 2011 and in cairo. and a group of cops they got together they got together with som

. >> how many muslims until the world. >> 1.57 well. let's say 10% dislike or hate us. million muslims hate us. if 10%, 5%, 1% are radicalizedid and would kill us. >> that's-- >> that's 1.5 million people who are radicalized to the point where they would want to kill you-- kill us americans. >> jon: wow, that's-- ( laughter ) that's interesting. can i see a footnote citation for those figures? oh, that's where he got them. i wasn't sure. ( laughter ) ( cheers and applause ) hey, i got an idea. since we're just throwing maementz away willy-nilly what, if we wanted to, i don't know, track the weapons any of these america haters bought or do a background check if any try to purchase weapon here's in america. ( cheers and applause ). >> right to bear arms is protect med in the constitution. >> there's no ambiguity here. the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. >> jon: no ambiguity there. in the last few decades there have been 3400 death frgz terrorism, islamic and otherwise and we have had, i don't, a million death from gun violence. is there a

lebanon and in the palestinian territories on whether sharia and muslim law should apply to non- muslims as wellat's a way to judge tolerance, and it's distressingly absent in a los lot of places. >> reporter: when you look at the stats pew released on relationships between husbands and wives in the muslim states, it's eye-opening. most of the countries sur verified, the majority of muslim women as well as men agree that a wife is always obliged to obey her husband, always. you know, it's sort of like a punch line, you know, here in america, but that actually has some real consequences for the women living in those countries. >> yeah, it certainly does, but i wonder and i certainly haven't seen attitudes from other religious, but if you look at fundamental members of other religious, whether that's, you know, doesn't have to be muslim, you see that attitude everywhere. >> megyn: good point. still in the vows of a lot of wedding ceremonies here in america. >> absolutely. we may look at it differently because we're certainly, i'll speak for myself. i'm certainly not a believer in that kind of sent

think that unfortunately is not just the case for muslims, for fundamentalist muslims but is the case for other religious as well megyn: what do you think overall, michael, is the takeaway on this? americans are struggling to understand the muslim faith because, of course, we know in the wake of the boston marathon bombings it was radical, radical muslims, not muslims but radical muslims which is a totally different thing who attacked us. there's a leap by some, and we want to clear that up. the muslim faith is not represented by the two guys who bombed the boston marathon two mondays ago. >> you're absolute right on that, megyn, but at the same time we have to avoid cultural qiequivalence and avoid tiltingt windmills, setting our policy towards smoke and mirrors. the fact of the matter is there's a battle of interpretations going on within islam. this is seen every friday in various mosques around the world when it comes to the sermons, and we can't be afraid to deal with the problem. we can't handicap our own law enforcement and make discussion of extremist islam a verboten subject. we really have to address t

muslim would still be expected to fast? >> i certainly don't. >> i do. >> oh, well, okay, virginia? >> yes. nursing mothers, babies, and sick do not have to observe ramadan. >> okay. that's part of it. sure. >> when we were first married, we lived in a flat upstairs a muslim couple, forty years ago, and it was first experience with a muslim person- he was a bosnian from yugoslavia; she was a turk- and what amazed me was their very great hospitality. "come. eat. come. stay. if you go to turkey, stay as long as you want. i'll call my mother, i'll call my aunt, i'll... stay." >> yes. the coffee. the coffee and the sweets. >> the good coffee. "eat. eat. eat again." i very rarely experienced that kind of hospitality. en if you should travel to their land and the people you're staying with wouldn't even know you, it's their duty to welcome the traveler, and make them comfortable. >> you're so right. we almost died of hospitality over there. we learned- you have to- do not clean your plate. once it's off the plate, more is on there. >> "eat!" >> "eat!" and that particular day when we did the sufi w

in two thousand and five one of them mohammed come was a quiet well integrated apparently well integrated muslim who worked in the schools and works in an outreach center and on the surface was a well integrated second generation muslim but in his head he had done that on a process which i have started which i call heroic doubling where he had us as it was a normal self a private self but another side of him which if you want to get a head around it people have seen the film avatar where the the man with who can't walk aquinas the avatar bolivian the in the tribe becomes a sort of superman what goes on is that somebody who's has obviously some deep this is this satisfaction with the society he's in come result of it by creating another verse not a heroic cells which relates to and i stress and fear or religion or cold and while they are living out their ordinary lives they become more more drawn into the idea that they have a sort of sacred mission to do something spectacular for that call what they would they be acting alone what these two brothers been acting alone it would bring another cycle

these american iced muslims are our most crucial allies. >> well, i don't think anybody is seriously maybe outside of -- maybe on fox news, but nobody is seriously talking about surveying every muslim in america. nobody is talking about ending immigration, so that we can review muslims who are here. i think those are fringe ideas -- >> and peter king. >> right. you will find some people on the fringes on either side will have a strong pin. that is not what's going to happen in this country. this is city built on immigration, a country built on immigration. immigration is crucial to the future of the city and the country. we're not going to all of a sudden start surveying every muslim. even if we wanted to, we wouldn't be able to. no one would have the resources. it will be against the law. it's not going to happen. on the other hand, i do think we need to keep in mind there may not be a single profile of a terrorist. timothy mcveigh obviously didn't look like or come from the same background as the people that blew up the world trade center, but in this city, anyway with the first wor

the queen is a muslim, but she doesn't look like someone who i think, or have been told, or the image..." so for people who are wondering, well, what does a muslim in america like you, or in the world that you live in, all around the world, how do you live your life as a muslim on a daily basis? what does it mean? >> it's more than living it on a daily basis. it's an approach to one's life in the short... today, in this moment, and for one's entire life. you don't really start the day thinking, "how am i living this day as a good muslim?" at least i start the day with... i mean, infused with a faith and a set of responsibilities that i lieve are entirely consistent with the judeo-christian values that i grew up with in this country. and the same values that are so fundamental to christianity and judaism are the values of islam-- tolerance, and the emphasis on charity, on accountability before god, on living a life that is of service to others. >> hinojosa: that's not... >> that's not the perception that people have. >> hinojosa: that's not the image. >> many muslims, as many christians and many jews, have many different ways

whether this particular muslim is a radical muslim or he's a tolerant muslim and on the part of the muslims as well, they may not be able to distinguish between an intolerant christian preacher and the majority who are very peaceful christians. >> reporter: and so laghos council remains vigilant. >> there is a breakdown of communication between the youth and the elder structure. >> reporter: meeting regularly to share intelligence from within each religious community and craft responses when tensions emerge. >> the whole concept of interfaith, inter-religious dialog is new. it's new in the world. it's new in kenya. it's new in mombasa. some people view it like, are you trying to mix up religions? that mindset will change, with time. >> reporter: sheikh rogos assassination remains unsolved. mombasa government officials declined our requests for interviews but deny allegations of police brutality and say they have appointed a special counsel to investigate rogos murder. but human rights lawyer hussein khalid is skeptical. >> you cannot send the police to come and investigate a killing in which they a

so for our audience, just, you know, describe what a muslim feminist is, because some people might say, "i don't understand that." >> well, you know, as a muslim and a feminist and an egyptian woman, i have a long history to draw on. i mean, when i look at the roots of islam... prophet muhammad's first wife khadija was a businesswoman who was 15 years older than him, who employed him and who proposed to him. so i'm thinking, "you know what? i have a feminist role model right there." >> hinojosa: how come we don't hear about this, though? >> great question, maria. i'm glad i'm on your show to say it. >> hinojosa: as a young muslim growing up, did you know about this? >> of course, yeah. these are women who are given to us as these great role models and women that we look up to, and we're very proud to have in our history. so she's there, you know, back in seventh-century arabia, and then in 1923 in egypt, a woman called hoda shaarawi launched egypt's first wave of feminism, which was around the same time that you had first-wave feminism, you know, in the so-called west. so i have a woman back in the 20th century who remov

juan, president obama has not used the term muslim terrorism in the whole boston incident. hasn't used it. >> well, we don't know that. >> yes we do. >> muslim terrorism. most chechens are not muslims. >> yes they are. >> bill: yes they are. any of the reportage about the guy on social media putting all of this stuff about jihad on there? don't you know that juan? >> no. i know that but i'm saying, look. >> what do you think it is? i don't know if it's muslim terrorism. >> it's terrorism. i don't care where it came from. >> you have to care. if it came from ireland. >> you shouldn't leap and i shouldn't leap muslims. >> i'm not leaping. >> happy to -- everybody in the media i can't is happy to leap. somebody right of center. that's why they were hypothesizing about tax day all day long. i'm happy to have a moratorium waiting to jump conclusions. we don't get that in all situations. only get that when the guy in question has youtube links going to al qaeda and other extremist imams. >> bill: juan, you need to read what this guy posted on social media. i have got to governmental i seen it i want to

within islam and i'm calling them modernist and not secularist because they are saying we are muslims as well but we practice but we don't want islam to regulate our daily life or religion to regulate our daily life. and women are very much the battlefield. it's not about women vis-a-vis man, it's about who controls women. how do they move. how do they get access, what do they dress up like. that's the battlefield right now. and so, and women are angry, women are very angry. so what you see in the middle east. >> angry about everything. >> angry about, because they say -- >> they were part of change and now being left back. >> when they were part of the change, they were part of the change not as women but as citizens. as youth as wanting to gets jobs, the essence of the arab spring. >> frequently needsing change. >> absolutely. and actually every single event, whether tunesia or he gipts or libya, there was a woman that was the triggering point of these events. and when you interview all of them, they say we were there as citizens. we did not feel ourselve as women. we were there because we
