Nope.
It's a start. Whether they will be able to wrest control of Islam from the sand Nazis is another question. I doubt it, given the long-established doctrines of Islam, the sand Nazis have their theology more correct.
Very nice.
Now, GO FIND THOSE WHO PERPETRATED THESE HEINOUS ACTS OF MURDER AND BRING THEM TO US.
Then, we'll talk.
Years too late and......................actions speak louder than words when it comes to this..........besides, the font looks screwy on their p/r!!
Many here will say it does not. However, consider how unimaginable this would have been just a short while ago. People in the Islamic world may be deceived but they are not stupid. They, like those under communist rule, they are seeing through the propaganda. Its not earth shattering but it is a beginning.
As I e-mailed them: Hopefully, this is a beginning. Time will tell.
Maybe this is the start of an Islamic Reformation. We'll see.
Sorry, you're too late for me. Drop dead.
Dear Muslims: The check is in the mail!
I am increasingly of a mind that there are only two kinds of these people - those that act and those that cheer.
Sure there are those that are on our side. But they are few and far between.
I believe your recommendation is the only solution to the Islamo-fascist problem. I have yet to see or hear of a better alternative, from anyone.
One thing that bothers me is the rejection of an apology. It's like a Liberal thing. They demand and demand an apology and then they never accept it.
Moderate Muslims, if not already, will one day be facing a terrible decision. The choice will be between their faith and their lives. This group (if legitimate) took a big risk to apologize. Do we not remember when the Afghan government condemned the attack the day of 9/11/2001? The Taliban marched in, bombed the airport and shot up everyone they could find.
I am not saying that this apology should mean the world to us, but to reject it outright and with hostility is not helping.
Now find your extremist militant leaders and turn them over to face justice!
Muslims are such pikers. If it weren't for Turkey, Pakistan, and Indonesia, they wouldn't even make the list. Heck, Mexico's almost caught up to them.
They can apologize all they want, but they've got a lot of work to do if they want to beat the socialists.
that link is dead
I agree. They have been living in fear, and have now decided to take that terrible risk. They KNOW the tactics of the fanatical Islamists - that is why they've been silent.
I just wrote recently about the 'Muslims for Bush': "These Muslims are very bold, and have stepped out of their fear, and I applaud them for that. It gives me hope that things will change. If more Muslims did that, then the change would happen faster. It's up to them."
I have also been saying for ages now, "the silence of the moderates is deafening".
Now the Muslims themselves are saying: Only moderate Muslims can challenge and defeat extremist Muslims. We can no longer afford to be silent.
They are finally starting to speak out. They are no longer silent.

I finally got in to their site. And I don't see what the gripe is about the fonts and other HTML elements. I had an idea of something some 6th grader cooked up on his mom's computer...
Anyway, do we buy it? Considering what they are doing is considered a sin punishable by death in the minds of the radicals. These Muslims are in fact considered Infidels by their brothers and sisters. So in effect, they are fighting the same battle as us.
Should we buy it? Buy it? To what extent? To say that it makes us feel absolutely totally better about 9/11? I think not, but on the other hand, to appreciate their words and risk is within my nature to do.
To say that we don't accept it and that they can go to hell is neither Christian, Jewish nor is it helpful. We don't need 1 billion of the non-terrorist muslims thinking we are all a "hard-hearted" people who are unwilling to accept peaceful Muslims into our fray.
