Thread Name: Salman Rushdie - Outrage.
Subject: RE: Salman Rushdie - Outrage.
Well said, Ron.

It is not Muslims doing the talking for Islam. It's a few maniacs--religious leaders who spew hatred and ambassadors from governments that are up to their necks in terrorist activities. It is for them there is no excuse. The tired 'burn the flag' and denounce the west garbage is getting old. Condemn the west for a war that is killing innocents; condemn the west for its greed. But condemn those leaders in your own realm who are no better. I really wonder how many Muslims could say what they really think and still be alive the next day. Many have no option but silence. And many have the choice yet say nothing!
