  1. My best solution: every Islamic country has to obey Human Right. Treat all people fairly, and freedom of religion and expression.

    As we know that, Human Rught is the core of Islamic teaching from Bible and Al Quran

    So those country do not obey Human Right, he reject God’s law. Those who reject God’s law will be punished.

    So Human Rught is the key for PEACE.
