Is it time for moderate muslims to step up and help stamp out the extremists?

Question

The pope didn't tell anyone to steer a plane into building or blow up TFL. he just quoted someone. muslims are always going on about us INFIDELS and how they're gonna kill us. I don't think what Benny said even compares!

Answer 1

The problem is that Muslims can do no wrong in this country but everybody else can and will be arrested for it.
They are taking and being allowed to take too much advantage of this situation.
Why would any Muslim act to suppress such an advantageous situation? Just let a few hot heads loose and collect the goodies all round.

Answer 2

Unfortunately moderate muslims seem to be a very small minority, if they exist at all. I believe actions speak louder than words, and while I can't agree with all policies used by the US gov't, I can't ignore what I've "heard" from the muslim majority.

It would be a good thing to have "grass roots" help in this anti-terror war but I would always wonder, especially after the violence has been successfully curbed, when and where will it raise up and begin anew?

I'd like to have all our troops brought home and a ban - a 100% ban - put in place against ALL muslim/islamic citizens, good, bad, or indifferent, from entering the US under any conditions. If you're a muslim and you're in the US you can stay until it's time for you to go. Know this, however, so long as you chose to stay you will be under a microscope. The world is a big place and it would be interesting to note what country, or ppl, they will pick to target in the name of their allah and for the cause of jihad? Let the muslims speak to the world thru their actions.

History tells me they'll implode in very short order. And that will be my prayer.

Answer 3

It is Vital that the moderate muslims Identify themselves NOW and destory the Evil practices of the Fanatical Radicals who are destroying the Muslim People and threatening the whole free world with their Vile ways , Bombing and Murdering Thousands ,causing the Decent and Peace Loving Muslims to be Blamed for this Lunacy and Carnage NOW is the Time for them to Act against this Cowardly Scum . or their suffering will be great and terrible.

Answer 4

If moderate muslims could stand up and be counted as being opposed to terrorists, then it would go a long way in alienating the terrorists and weakening their claim of representing islam.
But as it is, so called moderate muslims do not condemn strongly or vocally enough, and even try to justify the reasons behind it, and speak of martyrs. As such it becomes difficult to define a 'moderate' muslim.
But such a criticism would be very welcome, and highly overdue.

Answer 5

Considering that Muslims are supposed to be a peaceful religion then why is it that they scream for blood when people 'offend' them...why do they want to commit suicide and kill innocent people along side them....why do they jump about with utter joy when they kill Westerners....where is the peace in this religion.

Answer 6

I agree with almost all the answers you have had to date, its time for Cristian's and moderate Muslim's to stand up and say enough is enough. I suppose the question is how.

Answer 7

Muslims, Jews and Christians.

Answer 8

Yes. It was time long ago! Finding moderate Muslims is the problem. Do they exist??????

Answer 9

Do Christians strap bombs on themselves and blow up women and children? NO!!!
Who are these people who are condeming Christians for being extrements?
Who are all these Christian Haters?
Are there terrorists answering questions?

Your question was a good serious question.
