WESTERN INTERFERENCE OR LACK OF CLOUT?
Reader comment on item: A Million Moderate Muslims on the March
Submitted by Robert Thomas (United States), May 8, 2007 at 10:36
It is always encouraging to see examples of change in the Islamic world; however, the impact of "moderate Mulsims" remains in doubt.
Western ignorance and interference is in part responsible, but the reality is that the so-called "moderates" are so few in number and political clout, their efforts just don't amount to very much.
