Visit of Italy after 9/11 is a memorable experience

The incidence of 11 September 2001 in US is unforgettable. After the incidence the people of the whole world were under great shocked and anxiety. Nobody could guess what was going to happen next. In that critical time, I landed in Italy along with my other colleagues to do a training on landphone in Siemens in Milan. From the begenning, it was felt that most of the people of Italy (probably the whole Europe) had wrong idea that as some Muslims are responsible for this incidence, so all muslims are terrorist. Some people came with ferocious mood and asked so many questions to us. We tried to make them understand very politely through our interpreter that although we are muslims but we hate terrorism and we are not at all involved with this activities. Our religion (Islam means peace) does not support terrorism. Islam always says how to develop peace among the mankind. The Islam teaches a man to be kind to everybody, even with a non-muslim. We also told that we respect Jesus, Moses, Buddist, Sreekrisna (peace be upon them) and other prophet who brought God's message to the mankind. One lady introduced herself as the granddoughter of Musolini and told that you should not stay in Italy as you all are terrorists. I successfully made her unerstand that we are not terrorist. Then we took some joint photographs with her. Gradually the terrible situation was going over and we stayed there for about 2 months. We were doing training and visiting good places of Italy. Do you think that it was a memorable experience for me in Italy?
