Reader comment on item: Why Politicians Pretend Islam Has No Role in ISIS
Submitted by Gary Sack (United States), Mar 10, 2015 at 12:18
Daniel, you are so right. I've long thought and believe that only some horrific event, much worse than 9-11 will shake the complacency and the denial of "the west".
Unfortunately, it seems too late for Europe. And I'm still waiting for the billion non-extremists, "the moderates", to rise up and fight for the "religion of peace". You and I disagree about their moderates.
