On one point, he says about someone or something, they are Muslim not Islam. To me, they are just playing with words and trying to confuse people. Anyone else see this?

Someone should've pointed out that one of the Religion Of Pieces' proponent groups has named itself ISLAMIC JIHAD.

Those folks seem to have a real gift for doubletalk.

Funny. When I went to school in the 60's, they were called MOSLEM. Wonder when the shift occurred and why.

Here are a few names they have been called in the past
Until the late 1980s, the term Moslem was commonly used. Muslims do not recommend this spelling because it is often pronounced "mawzlem" /m?zl?m/ which sounds somewhat similar to an Arabic word for "oppressed" (Za'lem in Arabic)....

Many English-language writers used to call Muslims Mohammedans or Mahometans. ...

English writers of the 19th century and earlier sometimes used the words Mussulman, Musselman, or Mussulmaun. Variant forms of this word are still used by many Indo-European languages. These words are similar to the French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese words for "Muslim."

What he was trying to say (I think) is that what one Muslim does, does not reflect on all of Islam. Just as what one Christian does, does not reflect on all of Christianity. He used John Eric Rudolph as an example.

The flaw in his argument is that there are very few Rudolphs...and they certainly aren't terrorizing the know world.

Terrorism is the fruit, islam the root.
