Gabriel does not appear to agree. Indeed, during the question and answer period she berated moderate Muslims for not flooding into the streets to demonstrate and protest against the 7th century behavior of radical Muslims.
The fact Muslims have not spoken out only proves my point. The so called "majority" who supposedly disagree with the violence perpetrated by the "minority" would or could have easily suppressed any further violence.
It has been repeatedly said the reason Muslims don't speak out is due to fear of violent repercussion. The notion the minority controls the overwhelming majority is illogical. Muslims don't speak out because the violent methods used are prefaced on Sharia Law. There is no distinction between religion and state to Muslims. Religion is the state and the state is based on Sharia Law. The links below illustrate their beliefs.

The 1860 civil war left more than 15,000 Christians dead and more than ten thousand homeless. Later, however, the Ottoman foreign ministry imprisoned the Druze leaders involved in the war, and even punished a number of Ottoman officers and officials for having failed to prevent the 1860 civil war.
This was the first Lebanese civil war between Christians and Muslims.
