jbg Posted March 20, 2012 Report Posted March 20, 2012 If there is a question about this ----- where are the so-called "moderate" Muslims? They are spoken about a lot but the only time we hear from that mythical group is after a horrendous massacre by the "Radicals". Why don't we hear from them BEFORE these incidents?--- it would prevent them. And also the "moderates" decry "terrorism in all its forms", something that's understood to embrace Zionism on an equal footing with September 11. Quote Free speech: "You can say what you want, but I don't have to lend you my megaphone." Always remember that when you are in the right you can afford to keep your temper, and when you are in the wrong you cannot afford to lose it. - J.J. Reynolds. Will the steps anyone is proposing to fight "climate change" reduce a single temperature, by a single degree, at a single location? The mantra of "world opinion" or the views of the "international community" betrays flabby and weak reasoning (link).
Michael Hardner Posted March 20, 2012 Report Posted March 20, 2012 Why don't we hear from them BEFORE these incidents?--- it would prevent them. Because, as often happens on this board, when - for example - a mentally ill person goes off and kills people, it's news if/when that person belongs to a certain religion. There's a bias against that religion, and so the defence of moderates comes up in response to knee-jerk reactions. That's my experience anyway.
