Dialogue on Burma between my two kids
Sofia: You look apoplectic? Is everything okay?
Abdullah: The silence of muslim countries over the butchery of Burma muslims is driving me crazy.
Sofia: Dear, how can the muslim countries raise their voice considering the fact that they are the slave of America.
Abdullah: Who the heck is America!
Sofia: America is the country that gives aid to most of the muslim countries. They are banking on the aid of America.
Abdullah: One thing that is beyond me is that why does America do so?
Sofia: It is asinine to ask this question. Are you oblivious of the fact that America is hostile to Islam because she thinks Islam to be a hindrance in her way of progress?
Abdullah: You did not slake my curiosity. I need a cogent answer. Isn't it strange that America is antagonistic towards Islam and she still helps the muslim countries?
Sofia: For God's sake, just use your common sense! Don't you think that if America will give aid to muslim countries then the muslim countries will be unable to speak out against what America will do to the muslims?
Abdullah: All that you spoke is still cryptic because America is not directly involved in what is going on in Burma?
Sofia: Just go through some of the authentic books of history; everything will come to light. America is the country that has been using indirect powers for annihilating what is deleterious to her.
Abdullah: Then will the butchery of Burma muslims contiue like it?
Sofia: We can do nothing except praying to Allah to send some transcendental powers to the earth to help the innocuous muslims of Burma.
