"We struggled for some time about whether a statement should be sent out or not, because we would like this to be recognized for the grievous crime that it is, rather than an event that calls for an explanation or apology by Muslims. In the end, it was decided that we need to extend our sympathies and good will to those who were victimized by this crime because it would prevent misunderstandings between the faiths." [snip] We look forward to the future in which this test, too, shall be endured and people of the three Abrahamic faiths will have come closer in spite of this tragedy." [snip] Jeff Siddiqui
Gee, he and his cohorts must have really strained themselves very hard in their "struggle" to apologize, sounds like they barely got it out from their pinched cheeks! Oh, and BTW, Siddiqui, it is TWO Abrahamic faiths, Judaism and Christianity. The ROP (so called) is from another origin.

There were (and still are!) many who want to treat acts of war and/or terrorism as simple routine criminal acts. This has been apparent since 9/11. It's reflected again in that guy's statement. It's simply a way of separting the RELIGIOUS FANATICISM which inspired the terrorist from the religion itself and to give him the more "harmless" status of the run-of-the-mill felon.
When Hezbollah massacred 241 U.S. soldiers were they criminals or Islamofascist terrorists? Sadly, many think they should be given an ACLU attorney and spend the next six years in federal courts!
