The majority of muslims obviously support terrorism just by their lack of failure to reign in their terrorist population of their religion. Why are not the muslims leaders speaking out against the terrorists? They obviously must agree and enjoy the actions of the muslim terrorist. Also, it's a bunch of BS that Islam is a religion of peace when Islam itself means 'Submit'.

They speak out about Israel in Lebanon and never condemn Hezbollah. They will never win support until they can control their own.

Ok, I think you got it all wrong. I'm Buddhist and in 8th grade. But, I know only some Muslims are terrorists. And not all terrorists follow the Islamic faith. And the caliphs are too busy to try and reign in the terroristic poulation of their faith. And Islam means "submit" because you have to submit yourself to the power of Allah.
I studied this in 7TH GRADE. Don't diss other religions.

After we saw the American people reactions to their political and military war crimes we are sure now that most Americans support the killing of innocent women and children and the horrible massacres (37 in less than one month in Lebanon). Why you don't use your freedom to condemn these shameful human crimes. How do you dare to compare the limited ineffective individual reactive Islamic terrorism to the state organized deliberate systemic massively destructive terrorism started by the Israelis and Americans against Muslims.
How dare you remove the speck from your brother's eye when you have a log in your own eye?

The problem that you claim is a muslim issue is really a human issue. Humans always see themselves as right over others that are different then themselves. The actions of the Muslims today are no different then the actions of Christians in the Past. We have done just as awful things in the name of our God as what the Muslims have done in the name of theirs. (actually we both worship the same God). Another fact is that Muslims are as different in their religion as Christians are in theirs. Some Muslims are very peaceful, and find that the actions of their radical brothers very disturbing and shameful. I as a Christian find that there are those that call themselves Christian that are willing to do things that I would find equally shocking and shameful.
It says in Ecclesiasties that there is 'nothing new under the sun' and in this case it is very true. The radical muslims have not done anything that has not been done to them before.
Muslims are the largest religion in the world currently. I dare say that most of them dont support terrorism. Your claim of their lack of control is short sited. We have very little control of the actions of Christians in Europe(!!!), the same is ture here.
Finally 'Submit' is not necesarily meaning that non-muslims should submit. It is a reminder to those that claim the muslim belief that they themselves should submit to God. They see their lives as one of Discipline. That is why most muslims are upset at the emotional and undisciplined actions of their brothers.
Dont give into your hate because others have shown you theirs!!!!

As you may or may not have heard, the recent terrorists arrested in Canada were brought to the attention of the proper authorities by other community Muslims. It is also rumored that it was a Muslim who went to authorities that led to the arrests of suspected terrorists in the UK a few days ago. These are not unique acts.
Is it because you never heard this information that you gathered your conclusions?

Every religion (and every group for that matter) has their extremists and nuts. How many religions (or groups) actually do something about their nuts? I think very few. Either they don't know what to do, choose to ignore it, are afraid to or......? Some Muslims are speaking out and trying to do something. Before you knock all Muslims maybe you should really try find Muslims who are trying to help even at a small level. You should also really look at other groups of people. What about Hitler or Milosevic or Timothy McVey or the KKK or ..... Who stood up to people like them BEFORE they committed their crimes? Who has stopped followers like them? We're all guilty of inactivity and standing up for what's right, not just Muslims.

The silence is deafening, the peaceful Muslims need to take a vocal stand against the violence. If the world hears no discourse the we will assume that all Muslims are of the same mindset.

Yes, Islam means "Submit" -- to the Will of God.
And Islam is a religion -- like Christianity -- with all shades of thought and interpretation. There is no structure to act together against terrorists, but individual countries have acted against them in the past. I think they have as much luck reining in terrorists as Christians have reining in the KKK .... or Hitler.

is that this a real question or are you basically spreading your man or woman opinion around? in spite of the fact that the case, i'm a believer that stable ends could be justified by utilising stable potential. That being pronounced, people who kill via fact of self-protection are different than people who kill for revenge, exhilaration, etc. permit's no longer forget approximately, Islam is a faith. it is not violent, it is not non violent, it is faith. it relatively is a impartial entity is what i'm getting at. it is those with their unfastened will who're in a position to sway to the left or top.

Do members of other belief systems reign in the extremists that are of the same belief system. Are all christians then responsible for the actions of Timothy McVeigh? If you are going to make a statement as you just have make it applicable to all.. why single out one particular group. Extremists come in all belief systems.

Islam means submission, to God. There are hundreds of books and leaflets condemning terrorism as wrong and forbidden. Where are the books and leaflets condemning the American British invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan? Double standards?
