call me skeptic.....Reader comment on item: An Arab Prince Denounces Islamism Submitted by donevan (United States), Dec 11, 2014 at 15:11 I find it interesting that when the Islamic State in Iraq is gaining power, the 'Moderates' of Muhammedism speak up. Talk, as they say, is cheap. There is no rejection of I'slam, but "Islamism". That seems to be a distinction without a difference. The emphasis on political I'slam, is simply an extension of I'slam per se. One cannot keep this baby and disgard the bathwater, I'slam will inevitably lead to an "Isis" or some variation, in tactical but not strategic, objectives. When the Muslims permit the building of Christian churches, permit evangilization, free bible reading and distribution, and protect christians by law, as well as all other religions and belief systems, then their verbage may be news worthy......
