Katsav's comment reflects moral relativism
Reader comment on item: Israel's President Reflects Candidly on Islam
Submitted by Jonathan (United States), May 9, 2006 at 11:14
Moshe Katsav comment is steeped in moral relativism. The Israeli ruling elite are in total denial of the nature of their foe, the violent nature of Islam. Katsav would probably fall for that nonsense we heard some years ago about Islam being a religion of peace.
Daniel Pipes is right about the importance of identifying who you are fighting. Katsav's comment tells me he has no idea.
