Intolerance: an invincible enemy??

"We should be tolerant, we should respect different opinions and different views.. That's how the world will be a better place"…easy said, close to impossible to be done!!
No, I am not a pessimist, but that's what history and present are teaching me, intolerance will always find a way to come and disturb the world peace!! and here is why...
You take what is sacred to me and make fun of it... I should respect, it's your point of view...
You point at me and call me names, i should respect, that's your point of view...
You ridiculize every sacred thing i have through your comments, pictures and movies, i should respect, it's your point of view...
You bomb Iraqis and Afghans, in the name of freedom, when they did not do anything to harm you, i should respect, it's your point of view...
When terrorists kill muslims in Burma, i should respect, it's their point if view...
And now when Angola bans islam, you clap and cheer and i should respect, it's your point of view...
After all this, you call me terrorist!! when will you see that this creates hatred on both sides, actually when will you see that this creates sides!!!
There is a fine line between expressing your point of view and being a racist, islamophobe, and a hater!!
There is a fine line between freedom of speech and a war of beliefs that will only destroy you and me
When will you learn, brother, that your freedom stops when other's start!!
Here we are, after burma, angola and only god knows what country will be next, that's the result of the outrageous fight on islam the media started few years ago, hatred will rise all around the globe and no one will benefit except terrorists!!
When will we learn to respect each other and stop this fear from all that is different?! When will humanity learn from its mistakes and learn the lessons from history... How many more crimes and blood should we see to understand!! Yesterday, the black people, the native americans, the jews, today the muslims and only god knows who is next!! 
Somebody will comment what about all the muslim terrorists, al Qaida, how islam treats women...
- there are terrorists all around the globe, from all kind of beliefs, but what is sure these people have no religion!! They share only the hatered towards humanity, they are not muslims, christians, jews, hindus, buddhists or whatever other religion on earth!! Al Qaida and whoever is killing people, torturing them and spreading fear and ignorance is part of this group!! Trust me, if 25% of the world are terrorists, you won't be sitting somewhere reading this, you will be already dead!! As everybody else!!
- if muslim women are happy as they are, if they are satisfied, who are you to judge, it's their point of view!!! 

This is said, i know this might not change anybody's point of view, but It's the only way i know to express my anger and frustration about what's happening, the only way i know to fight your and my enemy: Intolerance!!
