The difference between moderate and radical Islam is that the moderates want the radicals to cut your throat, rather than do it themselves.

I wonder if the author also believes in unicorns and leprechauns?

It’s not ISIS that has tripled the rate of rape in European countries as a result of migration.

There are moderate Muslims, but they are useless. They are afraid to say “boo” to the radicals. Often based quite justifiably on the fear that their relatives living near them will be slaughtered.

The difference between moderates and "insane" muslims is....one is a funding segment....the other is the "insane" segment.

The solution is....Stop saying it's a religion.

There is no such things as a ‘moderate’ religion. Either a religion is true or it is not true.

Moderate Islam? I’d rather take a root canal than embrace Islam.

"Moderate Islam"?

Isn't that like being moderately pregnant?

The solution is quit calling Islam a religion.

Moderate Fascism could have been great for 1940’s Europe.

Yup.

So do it. Write a “reformed Koran” for your “reformed Islam” that doesn’t include violence, hate, coercion, jizya, punishments for heresy, subjugation of women, child abuse or Islamic supremacy. Otherwise you are just talking taqqiya.

No such thing as 'moderate islam' that I can see. Some tried appeasing the Nazis, too, and note what that got the world.

I believe this is true. I’ve met some nice folks from that background. The overall reaction I have is “Ok, so you’re afraid to speak up, because the nutballs who share your Mosque may slit your throat for apostasy, and do so with the Imans’ blessing (or at the behest of this Iman).
So, then, why do you wish to belong to such a religion that operates as a violent unlearned gang? Why do you keep going to listen to that radical Iman every Friday night?

So, do the Muslims tear out the parts of the Koran that demand violent Jihad or just plane Jihad that can be interpreted to demand violent Jihad?
