Why Muslims Are Not Outraged?

As Muslims murder Muslims, there is not global Islamic outcry, just a HANDFUL of self declared Muslims (usually Americanized Muslims that the Middle East Islam doesn't give credence to).

And now we hear and have confirmation that those two kidnapped Journalists were FORCED at gun point to convert to Islam. STILL there is no massive outcry against this. In my opinion, Muslims approve of this obscene tactic.

A person WILLINGLY converting to Islam is one thing and perfectly understandable - but when they are tortured and forced at gun point or threat of death to convert - NOT EVEN CHRISTIANS, nor Buddhists or most other religions (except maybe Hindi) do this.

Any conversion done under torture or at gun point is NEVER from the heart. Jesus did not command to force conversion, but in Islam it is permissible. If Muslims object, then WHY not a public outcry against force conversions? Why? Islam is not peaceful as I see it.

Update:

I am amazed how people gave this question low points despite my telling the truth. If people are being force converted to Islam - how could this be a bad question?

Update 2:

TO iRwAn.., For your information, those two abducted Journalists were not in Gaza fighting a war but reporting on the plight of the Palestinian people. Name one instance of TODAYS Christians forcing anyone to convert. We are not talking about ancient history. The Roman Catholic Church used to do this in history, but not currently. MUSLIMS do. (for the record, the Roman Catholic Church does not represent true teachings of Jesus, and no where does it say Jesus is God, but it does say, Jesus is Son of God)

    Because to them the end justify the means. What matters is that the added two more people to their clan, it doesn't matter how. Whether it is by the preaching of the religion, or at the end of the gun point. Notice how it is so important for them to mention their number! how often do you hear that from other religion groups. None.

    They asked the Hamas if they are going to try to find the kidnappers, they said let's hope it doesn't happen again, and not that they will do what is right and find them and make them pay for their crimes. Probably behind closed doors, they are considered hero.

    Don't judge all the Muslim the same, but when it comes to converting others, they all want the same convert the whole world to Islam.

    They tried to do the same with Jill Carrol, kidnapped for 82 days, but she refused to convert.

    Just as in most religions, you will have those who attempt to pervert and change the meaning.

    Those who do, don't care. Those who find church a nice place to see some people, and to "get the word", but don't really take to heart, don't care. Those true to faith are drowned out by those with a bigger voice. In the end, the people who were under duress shall be judged BY THIER GOD OF CHOICE, and that is all that matters.

    I guess you have never hear of the genocide that was done by the Catholic church to the aboriginal peoples of the Americas or the Klu Klux Klan who in the name of religion tortured and mutilated blacks, asians, native americans and jews.

    For ur info, in other parts of the world, THERE R christians who FORCED MUSLIM to convert to christian at gun point or watsoever but r never sensationalised. So how bout the american soldier who torture the arab prisoner? we never heard them go to jail? Americans r jus damn busybody.. they should jus take care of their own ppl n not not go into any country n attack. N they can proudly said they r in the middle east for peace sake. ya rite!!

    You can tell the truth about a people by their actions (or lack of action)....Islam shows it has no connection with the God they profess to believe in by this and the many other evils.

    Muslims are never to critisize each other, so no matter what horror they do, they are to support their wrong doing brother against the eternal kafir-pig-dhimmi-infidel-unbeliever enemy.

    Islam is a disease and an insanity at the sametime.
