Islam itu, saya bilang dan saya ulang adalah malapetaka untuk ummat manusia..
Artinya malapetaka untuk orang Islam sendiri.
Sudah empat belas abad orang Islam itu dengan penuh gairah dan penuh semangat
saling berbunuhan..

Baghdad hit by new wave of deadly bomb attacks
A series of co-ordinated bombings in the Iraqi capital Baghdad has killed more
than 50 people and wounded dozens more, police and medical sources say.
The bombs targeted mainly Shia neighbourhoods during the rush hour.
The deadliest explosion on Wednesday was reported to be in Jisr Diyala in
south-eastern Baghdad, where a car bomb killed at least seven people.
Violence has increased in Iraq in recent months amid heightened tensions
between Sunni and Shia Muslims.
Several blasts in the northern district of Kadhimiya killed at least five
people and wounded many others, according to reports. A northern suburb or Sadr
City was also attacked.
Sunnis say they are being marginalised by Prime Minister Nouri Maliki's
Shia-led government.
Correspondents say deep-rooted sectarian tensions have also been aggravated by
the civil war in neighbouring Syria.
More than 4,000 civilians have been killed and 10,000 more have been wounded so
far this year, with Baghdad province worst hit.
Casualty figures released by the United Nations showed 1,057 Iraqis - most of
them civilians - were killed in July, making it the deadliest month in the
country for years.
The authorities have stepped up security operations in Baghdad, according to
BBC World Service Middle East Editor Sebastian Usher. But they seem unable to
stop the growing intensity of violence now back to a level not seen for five
years, he says.
Barely a day goes by in Iraq now without similar bloodshed, our correspondent
adds.
The scale of bloodshed peaked in Iraq at the height of the insurgency in 2006-7.
The latest wave of attacks reportedly saw a number of blasts - many of them car
bombs - go off in car parks and shopping streets.
No group has admitted carrying out the bombings, but correspondents say appear
to have been carried out by Sunni militants.
