Islam and Western Media :1

Back again to my journal after being sick with flu and fever in the mid summer of the very hot Egypt,anyway as I wrote before there is great misunderstanding to The arab -islamic culture and above them the Islam itself.
Don't believe everything you see in T.V about it,don't believe everything you read about it in Newspapers and magazines
and more important don't judge it through looking to the image of the new muslims today,it is the wrong image because this isnot the real Islam .
as Egyptian who lives in the middle of the old world,the crossing of many cultures as some like to call it ,I watch many western tv channels and I don't know if this misunderstanding of Islam is intended or unintended,simply they blame Islam on everything bad in the Arab Islamic countries from poverty to ignorance to neglecting the women rights ..etc and they ignored an important point here ,the problem isn't in Islam ,it is the corrupted governmets of these countries which are behind all of these problems and also behind hiding the real Islam,the Islam which calls for equity ,The Islam which calls for freedom,and more important The Islam which calls for democracy"and I will discuss this later",even the Islam that gives women all their rights is sealed by keys held by The men of law and traditions "Saudi Arabi for example",yes traditions and customs ,that Islam came to erase from 14 centuries ,came back again and worse than before
The West World thinks that Islam is its enemy ,this wrong because the real enemy of Islam is the Corrupted governmets and old traditons
It is long topic I am going to speak about it and may God give my strength for this
