March 01, 2006, 8:16 a.m. A Muslim Manifesto Rejecting the bad.
"Who are the moderate Muslims, and why do they not speak up?" After being asked this question over and over again since 9/11, particularly after the Danish cartoon crisis, we decided to propose the following Muslim Manifesto:
Recently, the disrespectful cartoons about Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) published in Jyllands-Posten resulted in an extreme reaction among many Muslims worldwide. While we understand the feelings of our co-religionists, we strongly urge them to refrain from rage and violence.
We encourage Muslim political, social, community and business leaders to contact us at info@muslimmanifesto.org to sign onto the Manifesto so that the authentic peaceful and civilized message of Islam will be heard.
Mustafa Akyol is a writer and journalist based in Turkey; Zeyno Baran is director of International Security and Energy Programs at The Nixon Center.

nah...pigs be upon him.
Sura 9:5 of the Koranus, Slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush.
Aap aap ahh dap dap!!!!!
It's a religion of peace
It's a religion of peace
It aint Slim W, but this'll gitr done!
Kill A Commie For Mommie
Amazing as it might seem, Muslims get on the 'net, too.
Unfortunately, this is a somewhat typical response here:
"Where are all the moderate muslims condemning terrorism?"
And then when they actually do, they get this response.
Unhelpful to say the least.
Yeah, I've seen some of their published videos.
NOT. GOOD. ENOUGH.
"Muslim soldiers should never "kill the old, the infant, the child, or the woman." Those who do so are not martyrs, but cold-blooded murderers."
They enslaved women and children. They didnt want to kill marketable SLAVES. Muhammed himself committed genocide of a Jewish tribe by killing all the males and enslaving the women of children. The tribe was destroyed.
Here is a better manifesto...

That's way short of the response that the dealt cult has earned.
This is a war, and in war you take your allies where you can find them.
Know them by their fruits ... this is just a white-wash
of Muslim beliefs, and barely scratches surface of the ills that are wrought by the more radical muslims. It seems more for westerners consumption (and gullibility, by gloassing over the real islamic view in support of jihadist attacks on 'provoking' non-muslims).
Let muslims condemn unequivocally the lack of religious liberty in the islamic world, condemn islamic terrorism and acknolwedge rather than cover up the violent aspects of islam that incites such things. Let them condemn the beheading of christian girls in indonesia by muslims, the burning of christian churches in pakistan, the genocide of nonmuslims in Darfur by muslims, and the muslims violence in Nigeria - all done by muslims to terrorize their non-muslim neighbors.
Let these muslims acknowledge that the cartoons were *not* blasphemy and need no apology.
... until then, this is just verbal muddying of the water.
(Supported by the Koran's affirmation that "there is no compulsion in religion" (2:256), we cherish religious liberty.)
I could have sworn that in the Koran it says to kill someone who was a Muslim and converted away from Islam.
Bigotry rears it's ugly head in all places and from all peoples, doesn't it?
Even pointing out that there are several thousand American Muslims serving in the US Military currently and some have given their lives in the War on Terror brings calls of they are the exception and they still shouldn't be trusted.
It's beginning to look like some believe the First Amendment only applies to certain religions.
You wouldn't happen to have the appropriate Surah for this, would you?
I'm sorry, but I think this is bull for the most part. I have to wonder what kind of muslims these folks are, because a lot of what they have said doesn't mesh with the teachings of Islam at all. If they are sincere, then great, but I choose to take it with a grain of salt.
No, my copy of the Koran is too wet to be used immediately (it has been flushed down the toilet too many times!)
Talk is cheap. Meanwhile, worldwide butchery is taking place in the name of the false moon rock god.
And most of the replies on this thread are proof of it.
