Canto28, excellent post!!

I have never believed that there is anybody called a "moderate" Muslim. Islam is Islam, not moderate but certainly all radical. The same applies to all those who follow Islam i.e., Muslims - they can't be moderate when their ideal man is Mo and they are to emulate his life. We all know what his life was like and what instructed his followers to do with all non-Muslims. With these facts and an army of imams to control Muslim masses, what chance is there for Muslims to be moderates??? To be moderates, Muslims will have to reject and discard certain parts of Quran and their ideal man's life example and that is not permissible for Muslims to do to remain a Muslim.

So there is no moderate Muslim anywhere on this earth. Period!!! Any pretend moderate Muslim can become a radical in a nano second. All those educated Muslims such as those Muslim doctors who attacked Glasgow airport, this US army doctor Hasan, Mo Atta- leader of 9/11 attack on NYC, this MBA guy who was going to blow up Time Square are some examples of moderate Muslims removing their mask showing their real terrorist face. Mark Steyn's term "quiescent" Muslim does fit very well to them. Though coining of the term "moderate' Muslim and Islamist Muslim is perhaps done to be politically correct but it is deceiving and does not help us to fight the Muslim terrorism. We should be telling the truth however unpleasant it may be otherwise the present state of affairs will go on leading us to nowhere.

Muslims blow up at any perceived "insult" or criticism of their religion, it may be because they know it to be true and they don't want more people to know it or because they really don't know it - they have been told by Mo/allah not to question him, he has done all thinking for them!!!
