Is it Radical Islam, or just Islam?
Reader comment on item: Moderate Muslims March in Phoenix
Submitted by Mark Tyler (United States), Apr 30, 2004 at 10:11
At some point we the public have to consider that most Muslims are radical. Moderates may be the exception, not the rule. If that ever wasn't the case, it is now.A Muslim or Muslim group will speak out loudly against profiling, and the violation of their civil rights, but only sotto voce will they condemn the murder of innocents.
I welcome Mr. Jassar's efforts, but for the time being it is his opinion that is radical in the Muslim world.
