The Question Should Be, What Is Wrong With The Rest Of The World?

Reader comment on item: [The Need to Name and] Know Thy Terrorists
in response to reader comment: What is wrong with Americans?

Submitted by AnneM (United States), Jul 8, 2006 at 08:21

The question should not be asked of Americans, but rather the rest of the world, which seems to still be fast asleep at the wheel, when the non-Muslim world is being attacked or threatened by jihad coming from the Muslim world to take the needed actions to stop it?
