    Why do people think its necessary for moderate Muslims to protest? You don't expect Christians to protest when a Timothy Mcveigh type domestic terrorist attacks.

    President Sisi gave 2 speeches which addressed this very thing. Please google them and let me know what you think.

    Egypt is confronting rabid Islamic terrorism on at least 3 fronts - Gaza, Libya, Sudan, the Sinai and Syria.

    blaming all Muslims doesn't help, you need to blame those really responsible

    FYI, I was watching Fox this morning, Victor, and they invited Dr. M. Zuhdi Jasser, a prominent anti-Islamist Muslim from the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, on to its morning show to denounce the killings and discuss how we should respond to them.

    He also had some good advice on how our president needs to drop his cowardly political-correctness and start addressing the fact that this whole problem does involve Islam and the conflict within the Muslim community over their religion and its role in our societies, most particularly the West.

    They did? And the show's animators didn't try to trap him or making him look bad?

    If that's the case, then, maybe, I was a bit hasty concerning FOX. Maybe.

    BINGO! I blame Allah for every chopped head, raped child and all the other hideous acts of barbarism and savagery, done in its name. Bad, bad Allah :wall:

    You realize that Allah is just another name for Jehovah/Yaweh, don't you?

    I must have missed the part where Hitler and Stalin killed all those people in the name of Jesus. They did it for power not religion. We have active conflicts in the world today that are EXPRESSLY about religion. The only ones fighting wars over religious reasons today are Muslims. This isn't that difficult of a concept to get why do liberals have such a hard time with it?

    All moslems and I will disagree with you. Allah is the most powerful Deity of them all, and it holds monopoly on all the bad things done in its name for the last five Centuries. When was the last time someone was crucified over the screams "Jehovah is Great!!! "?

    Tell Iraq that. Then tell Iran that and also Syria. Also the reason that you have "stability" anywhere is because one faction became a supermajority in their country and dominate everything and represses the other side.

    Why would they? Fox is probably the only network that will give the man and his organization a voice.

    What would be surprising if the PC progs in the Leftist MSM invited him onto their networks.

    You were. In fact, you should give their producers credit for giving legitimately "moderate" Muslims who share our values a public platform instead of the phony moderates in Islamist groups like CAIR that the Leftist-dominated MSM helps masquerade as the representatives of Muslim community in America.

    The Nazi belt buckle had 'gott mit uns' inscribed on it. What do you think that means?

    Wrong. People like you have allowed political correctness to take a higher priority than truth and public safety. These incidents are going to happen more frequently unless we muster the courage to publicly identify and name the demographic responsible.

    That hasn't worked so far. Muslims are Muslims first. They are all very reluctant or completely unwilling to condemn the acts of terrorism. More often than not, they all justify and explain the acts instead of condemn them.

    Islam in and of itself is the problem.

    Been around moslems much? Right in the middle of blood feud, vendetta or jihad, perhaps? I have, so I speak from experience. You?

    The same as G*d with us; the saying is old, and been used long before the Third Reich ... so?

    what does that have to do with the fact that the Abrahamic religions all serve the same god, just with different dogma?

    your experience is anecdotal or did that fact escape you too?

    What you said in the second sentence is pretty much what M. Zuhdi Jasser said this morning. To say this has nothing to do with Islam is to run away from the problem instead of tackling it head on.

    This is not to say that all Muslims embrace the views of Islamists and jihadists, but the fact is, many Muslims do, and their interpretation of Islam and its role in our societies are derived primarily from Islam's scriptural texts and the examples set by Muhammad and his followers.

    So let's publicly identify the problem and the demographic responsible - Islamism and Islamists.

    See, that wasn't difficult.

    It has absolutely nothing to do with Islam just as the 'Christian' Lord's Resistance Army has nothing in common with Christianity other than in name-or should we blame the Christian demographic for the actions of a deluded minority? Is that so hard to understand?

    That's precisely the nonsense that Zuhdi Jasser - a devout Muslim - was speaking about this morning.

    Where do Islamists get their interpretation of Islam from, snake? The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy?

    Get real...

    LoL indeed, we all serve G*d to the best of our abilities... for some it is praying, searching for the inner self, devotion, charity. For others - chopping heads in G*d's glory :)

    The Lord's Resistance Army is Christian, just like Islamists are Muslim.

    The difference is that Jesus never condoned what the Lord's Resistance Army is doing.
