A Muslim view of the news

A useful blog I discovered today, thanks to Andrew Sullivan, is Altmuslim. It is a useful corrective in some ways to news by and about Muslims. A billion plus people can't have the same views about anything. As the site explains:

We've designed this website to be an interactive news and discussion forum that helps promote a critical (and self-critical) analysis of issues regarding the Muslim community. Our editors provide brief overviews of issues affecting the Muslim world, along with extended commentary and discussion on a variety of topics, all designed to foster a community of people who want to become more informed and involved in the world around them

Give it a try. It looks interesting.
