I Am Advocate Of Islam

To start, I would like to point out that Im an atheist so, Im not bias towards one religion or another. I think the problem in the West is thinking of Islam in a solid, completely unified body of ideals. Muslims often disagree with eachother on religion/politics/morality etc, but I think also that there is difficulty in defining what it is within the Muslim faith in regards to the current issues in the world. "Salafism" is the real culprit and I believe it's teachings are the enemy of all the world, to include Muslims.

Muslim culture has given much to the world (modern arithmetic is essentially a Muslim invention), it's too sad to watch the world get torn apart by fascism

It's nice that you call on people to not generalise but salafism is not "the culprit" as you say. It's the fastest growing religious movement at the moment, and there is nothing wrong with that: It's about adherance to the principles of Islam as taught by the early generations, and that in itself is an essential and common part of Sunni Islam. Those who claim to more strictly adhere to just that come in a few different types, but in itself salafism is the basis of Islam. If anyone thinks that the fundaments are that wrong, he actually says that about all that the entire religion is based on.

You're basically doing the same as you say others do. You're just aiming at a smaller group. It's still unjust though.
