Islam is as Islam does

Regardless of the number of Muslims supporting radical Islam, when the Twin Towers were taken down by Islamic terrorists, the "good" Muslims kept their sentiments within their locked lips! They did nothing to send a message to the terrorists that they would not tolerate violence in the name of Islam.

Supposing that terrorists crippled America once again. Who do you think the moderate Muslims will stand behind? Islamic terrorists? or American citizens? You KNOW where they would stand! I won't even dignify the question with a definitive answer.

Supposing that the answer is [Islamic terrorists], then their numbers will have doubled and their strength will have increased.

Therefore, a Muslim is a Muslim is a Muslim...there are no differences anywhere within the range of "peaceful" Muslims and radical, fundamental Muslims! No difference. They will eventually present a united front under the banner of Islam.
