Searching For Answers

merasyad
What makes someone so desperate to go on a suicide mission? How do Muslims look at the people of other faiths? What is Jihad?

These are the questions that all of us have been asking since 9/11/2001.

Searching For Answers is a documentary on Muslim-Americans and how they feel about today's world, terrorism and its affects. This documentary interviews various groups of people (mainly youth and community leaders) in the Middle Eastern and South Asian communities to find out what they think about the current affairs, the post 9/11 world, and their place in the American society.

    • Enjoyed this piece, but it shows only one side of the story. Here's a thoroughly researched counterpoint that has both historical and modern context, and completes what this piece leaves out.

    • It is very clear that the average American knows very little when it comes to The world of Islam as well as the Middle East. I believe that in order to be able to communicate and live together peacefully with people of Middle Eastern decent, we must know and understand as much about their culture as possible. We also have to learn as people to except that lifestyle regardless of the imaginary boarders that we have created to seperate ourselves from each other. Isolationism will not work in the modern globalized world. Therefore we must learn to live with each other because none of us are going anywhere and we all live on this one rock. Hopefully Searching for Answers will help address this issue and answer questions anyone may have.
