EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Speaking in Youngstown, Ohio, on August 15, 2016, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump gave a speech on what he unequivocally referred to as “radical Islam.” He declared:

Nor can we let the hateful ideology of radical Islam—its oppression of women, gays, children, and nonbelievers—be allowed to reside or spread within our own countries . . . [W]-e must use ideological warfare as well. Just as we won the Cold War, in part, by exposing the evils of communism and the virtues of free markets, so too must we take on the ideology of radical Islam. Our administration will be a friend to all moderate Muslim reformers in the Middle East, and will amplify their voices.1

Since Mr. Trump’s election victory and inauguration as president, much attention has been focused on hurried and probably temporary restrictions on refugees, visitors, and immigrants from a number of majority-Muslim countries. Almost no attention has been paid to the broader goals outlined in the Youngstown speech.

There is no radical Islam, there is only Islam because there is only one Koran, there is no moderate version.

“...there is no moderate version...”

Like any group, some people do the hard work and others just use the results of their labor to their advantage. Sure there are Muslims who do not kill. Nor do they speak out against killing. (For good reason.) Those who do not kill are the high grass the snakes hide in. If you don’t want terrorism the only thing to do is rid your country of Muslims. Islam uses the whitewash of religion when it is a cult of killers.

I second that recommendation. I have saved the PDF and started to read it. A courageous woman, under death threat for years, who not only sounds a warning but gives a detailed prescription for how to oppose the threat.
