Substance for a Better Image?

A good start, hopefully a very good start.

Using quotations from the Bible and the Koran to support their message, the scholars told people who relished conflict and destruction that "our very eternal souls are" at stake "if we fail to sincerely make every effort to make peace and come together in harmony."
Captain Ed talks about another good start.

Would any of this ever of happen without the War on Terror? The world will never know for sure, so depending on the individuals political stance the answer will be different. Some will say it happen in spite of Iraq, while others will look at Iraq as the spark that got the fire going.
I have been spouting off against the idea of Hollywood engaging in a Jihad to improve Muslims’ image because without any substance it is all just propaganda. This could be the substance behind the words. One can only hope that Muslims and any other religion can live together.
