Lately I talked with a family and we exchanged travel storys. At some point they went into a shop and the shop owner looked like a terrorist. So I started asking: 'How does a terrorist looks like?'
'You know, he had this long white beard, a turban on his head and was wearing a jelaba. Like Osama, they they shot in Pakistan!'
Wow, I was impressed what a clean picture of a terrorist a standard EU family has nowadays. They can not imagine a dangerous person wearing a suit, a tie, driving a big suv. In their eyes this must be a successful business man, for sure not a criminal. Lately I am so impressed how much influence the media has to society. If you have a brain in your head, you should start using it! Always check your source, better not having a strong meaning on anything you are not sure the info you get is biased or not. In this moment i am not sure anymore if education really is the key to freedom and peace. You need to learn to make an opinion by yourself.
