Reader comment on item: Obama & American Muslims: How Different?
in response to reader comment: What's so special about Muslims?
Submitted by Mark D. (United States), Apr 23, 2010 at 23:18
Calling a spade a spade. I give you that.
What is so special about Muslims?
They can harm us.
So we have to try to have a good relationship with them.
And not doing so would fan the flames.
There is, however, a line that is drawn, and if they pass that line....
War.
