It has often been claimed in the media that Muslims are "silent" and do not condemn terrorism. This page is intended to refute that claim. Muslims have not been silent. Not even close. See also How American Muslims Really Responded to September 11 for more information about the Muslim response to 9/11. And another listing is at Statements Against Terror. Also Muslim Voices Against Terrorism. Related commentary at Friedman Wrong About Muslims Again , by Juan Cole and The Myth of Muslim Condemnation of Terror by Ali Eteraz.

I really don't want to bring all this down but ,

I never heard a peep out of them after 911 . And I'm sure the palistineans had a minute of silence, but I would bet it was for the highjackers not the friends of jews .

All this proves is they are obeing the quran and deceiving the infidel .

Book of Sura tells them to pretend to make friends with the infidel, decieve him until the time is right to kill him . [ Not a quote but what i read in it ].

They do not assimilate , they do protest loud and clear in our streets when our ally is at war with muslim nations . The only time we have seen them protest in the streets as a matter of act was against Israel .

I don't trust them, America should keep close watch on them . If they do serve in our military they are dangerous to our troops and the security of our nation ,imo.

I think they act peaceful until they get a grip on their host or sense weakness like in France today and all the other nations over time .

If you want to know how democratic they are look at the nations they control or invade .

READ , " THE PROJECT " it gives in detail from their own sneaky words what they plan for your country . How they will pretend to all of sudden love us infidels .

We have become even more stupid than the romans who invited into their gates un-watched radicals .

Rename my pets?!?!?

But my pot-bellied pig LIKES being called Muhamed!!!

They should have sent a homosexual to shake the hands of Ademejidamad while eating a pork chop and then gave him a great big kiss !

I don't like homosexuals or their recruiting of our children, but this man said he doesn't have any homosexuals in his country . Thats cause they don't live long enough to be known .



He was going to lay a wreath at the 911 memorial for the highjackers . Someone stood up and stopped him .

People like O’Rilley and Foxnews complains when someone breaks Islamic law and is prosecuted.

The girl who got 200 lashes and put in jail, was because she broke the law and not because she was raped. If you live under Islamic law, you should know better than not to violate it and the consequences.
The teacher who named the teddy bear “Muhammedâ€

I never heard a peep out of them after 911 . And I'm sure the palistineans had a minute of silence, but I would bet it was for the highjackers not the friends of jews .

That is because you do not want to hear it. There are Muslims NOW in the middle east who is taking back their religion and IS speaking our against radical Muslim teaching.

dyehard,

This topic is not about the woman who was gang-raped and then punished for being a VICTIM.

This topic is about a teacher who DID NOT name a teddy bear, she simply allowed her Muslim STUDENTS to name the teddy bear Muhammed. The most popular kid in the class was named Muhammed and the kids decided it was a good name for their teddy bear, too.

And PLEASE, stop using the OLD Testament to justify your anti-Christian gibberish. It gets a little tiresome after awhile...

I am not anti-Christain and nothing is my post shows it. That may be how you see it.
I AM a Christian and the bible is not complete without the OLD testament. Some religions only use the OLD testament.
The point I was trying to make is there are radical Christains as well as radical Muslims and there is MORE violence in this county than is muslim countries. MORE violence in the Bible than in the Koran.
And we need to clean up the violence here before we try to tell other people not to be violence.
The woman was lashed for disobeying Islamic law by going out without a male member of her family and not for being raped. Islamic law are ugly but they are Islamic laws and not ours.
There is a lot of violence in the world and we cannot stop it all.
I am a Christian and there is a lot of violence in the bible but it is determined on how we interpret it. As radical Muslims interpret the Koran.
Violence has been committed in the name of the Bible and the Koran.

I am not making excuses for radical Islam or radical Christians.

A British teacher in Sudan was convicted Thursday of the less-serious charge of insulting Islam for letting her pupils name a teddy bear "Muhammad," and was sentenced to 15 days in prison and deportation to Britain, one of her lawyers said.

Let's just all be glad this woman will live. It was looking pretty bad for her a few days ago with the idea she could have been lashed 100 times and jailed for 15 years. She needs to leave that country anyway. I think all that she can do has been done.

And some Christain believe fallen troups got what they deserve because of gays in our society.
How sick is that. Violence anywhere sickens me. But is sickens me more when it comes from within.
