Thank you. This is a pet peeve of mine. They need to get off of the fence and take a stand.

A friend of mine has a saying I love: The only thing you get from sitting on the fence is a butt full of splinters, plus you run the risk of getting shot by people on both sides.

And to think, they initially called ETA out on this attack. Can't get any more of an Al Qaeda connection than this!

DEADLY MADRID TRAIN BOMB SUSPECT TIED TO 9/11 ATTACKS

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

MADRID, Spain — A Moroccan sought in connection with last month’s Madrid train bombings was indicted Wednesday on charges of helping plan the Sept. 11 attacks.

Amer Azizi helped organize a meeting in northeast Spain in July 2001 that key plotters in the U.S. attacks, including suspect suicide pilot Mohamed Atta, used to finalize details, Judge Baltasar Garzon said.

They need to get off of the fence and take a stand.

But they haven't and they won't. How many Muslims have you heard on radio or TV since 9/11 condemning terrorist activities??

Interestingly, Greta asked Mansoor that very question last night on her program. Mansoor hemmed and hedged and mumbled, "well, they're afraid of speaking out against their own" (not an exact quote but certainly the gist)

As has been said many times on this thread, silence is acceptance.

LOL!! What a great tagline that would make! And, how very true!
