I will post the same thing on this thread that I posted on the original thread about his article:

This is exactly the sort of whiney, woe-is-me, pitiful victim BS I do not need to read from another Muslim, especially today.

Stick a sock in it, Aladdin.

Note: this is a cross post necessitated by the heated comments on this topic: By my screen name you can tell I have a special interest in this matter. I think that about 90% of Muslims are technically innocent, although many of them they will have to do a lot more than they are to prove their loyalty. That is, most of them aren't turning in the terrorists and those that support them. It's public knowledge that the terrorists are liable to make another massive attack before our election this year, just as they did in Spain, to try to influence the vote. Please, whatever happens, remain law abiding.

In the first place, it's the right thing to do. In the second place, you could go to jail if you're caught. Finally, we don't want to alienate the innocent Muslims. We need people who look like Muslims and know the culture to root out the terrorists. The old saying is you catch more flies with honey than vinegar. Besides, we need to convert them without violating their free will, not persecute them wholesale.

Proclamations like there are no innocent Muslims are counterproductive in the long term and needlessly inflammatory in the short term.
