If they are truly moderate, then why would they be offended by the term “Jihad”?

It's hard to believe that these idiots have enough intelligence to walk from point A to point B without getting lost.

Juan is an idiot. Moderate Islam doesn’t exist. All Islam wants to convert the world to Islam.

Those moderate islamists must be big boys and girls, and recognize the fact of radical jihad. It is not up to us to protect them from reality.

The moderate Muslims should be protesting the radical Muslims.

Would Juan ever say this?

“We don’t want to antagonize people that we want to win over and that includes whatever moderate element there is in the Christian community...you want to make sure that people who are faithful Christians don’t think we are going after them”

Ask a Muslim, there’s no such thing as a ‘moderate’ Muslim.

Islam is so structured that it will force us to play Cowboys & Muslims.

Islam Delenda Est.

Uh...Juan.....

....."Jihad" is THEIR term and THEIR action.

If there is any antagonizing going on, it's not by us...

Right now, some serious Muslim scholars are trying to rewrite Islam into a more peaceful, modern religion. To do this they emphasize minor parts that advocate peace, and downplay the parts that call for violence and other intolerable practices. It’s called “hypocrisy”.

However, a long time ago, the same basic process happened to Christianity, to the effect of, “When King ‘A’ fights Prince ‘B’, God does not noticeably choose sides. So neither of them can claim the mandate of heaven.”

The end result, hopefully, will be much like a ‘Protestant’ version of Islam. With ideas like: “Jihad is internal, not external”, and “Allah favors no one who murders innocent people, even if it is done in His name.”

The bottom line is once this is published, we in the West will be able to distinguish between “radical” and “moderate” Muslims. The moderate Muslims will embrace the reforms, and the radicals will not.
