Where are the "passive" muslims in all this?

[JerrySeinfeld]

So all the writers out ther (and ther are many) claim that the accts of terrorism throughout the world are solely acts of a marginal, radical group and doesn't represnt islam as a whole. Yet everywhere we look in world conflict its muslims against america, muslims against israel, muslims against mongolia...muslims against australian tourists in bali, muslims against salmon rushdie, muslims against dutch cartoonists.

My question? if most muslims are not in favor of this behavior, then WHY have we not heard a MASSIVE protest amongst the "peaceful" muslim community? This is a community of 1.2 Billion people. If most muslims were against this behavior, you'd think we'd hear about it SOMEWHERE????

And i mean in MASSIVE amounts???? where are the masses of muslims protesting against terrorism? WHERE ARE THEY?

I submit that there are two types of muslims: those that are radical violent terrorists and those that are afraid to speak against the first.

Please please...someone prove me wrong.

No one will.

I don't think every Muslim has the capacity for violence (chickens & the squeamish know no religion), but it seems almost too obvious that just about every Muslim is happier than hell to see someone sticking it to "whitey"... to quote that great civil rights activist Malcolm X. (I was shocked to discover that Canadian schools are teaching that Malcolm X is a hero ... when I remeber his "kill whitey" rants ... but I digress).

They see a chance to be the man on the stronger horse (to quote our second valued human rights crusader ... Osama) and they love it.

Why not ... who doesn't?

But we're the fools for pretending it is not so.

I heard a great thought about the "acquiescence of muslims".

If we in the west are ready to succomb to pressures from islam about cartoons...are we not simply acquiescent muslims in the end?

If we don't speak out in defense of our freedoms, are we any better than those "quiet" muslims who don't speak out against terrorism?

In other words...conquered?

No ... we're one hell of a lot worse because we've lost our will to survive. That's way below the will to conquer.

I laugh out loud at those who think this is about america. The whole jealous world can't wait to blame america. WHAT A SHOCK to blame someone who isn't of EUROPEAN DESCENT for the world's ills.

You'll have to tell me where you found those people not blaming people of European descent. Just got up from a nice trip to the Land of Nod, did you?

look around you. by common knowledge: IMPERIALIST AMERICA and its friend are to blame for terrorism...haven't you heard?

[gerryhatrick]

You really got a hate-on for Muslims, huh Jerry?

Lovin' the cartoon demo violence I guess? Mmmmmm Muslim bashing.

Ugly.

so i have a "hate on" for muslims? hardly.

more to the point, muslims have a "hate on" for gay marriage, infidels, abortion, free speech and democracy.

let's be accurate here.

[sharkman]

Yes, it's the Muslims who have a hate on for everyone who doesn't conform to them. And they have a hate on for each other. The majority of Muslims are killed by other Muslims, National Post reported on Wednesday I think.

Europe is in the midst of a paradigm shift and will never be the same. And North America can't rescue them like we did in WWII.

I'm aware of that. My point was that I had no idea where you found those people NOT doing that.

I misread the above at first and now I cannot get out of my head the crack that Stephen Harper made at Dalton just the other day. Said he:

"And, you know, I'm no doctor, but I think that Mr. McGuinty's got a case of premature speculation."
