And when their numbers become sufficient, they will be pushing for Sharia law to replace the US, state and local laws they are subjected to.

*Every* Muslim I have personally known (perhaps ten), has fled sharia law and the fundamentalist idiots who enforced it in their home countries.

Educated, moderate Muslims are THE great untapped resource in the GWoT, but we just lump them in with the Islamo-fascists and wonder why they feel alienated?

Exactly. Unfortunately, too many people around here spout off crap like "the only good Muslim is a dead Muslim," and "Everything I need to know about Islam I learned on 9/11." Refusal to even recognize that there is such a thing as "moderate Muslims" is one of the worst mistakes conservatives can make, and it's happening all over the place.

Please tell them to step up and be vocal so we know they're out there. Until they do that they have no one but themselves to blame if they are lumped in with the others.

So, we should trust our lives to 'bad' muslims, who disobey their religion, and don't kill us infadels, or enforce sharia law?

The ones who have a religion which instructs them to lie to us infadels, and trick us?

What if they decide to become 'good' muslims and follow the koran, and attempt to convert, tax, enslave or kill us infadels who live in the war zone (dar el harb - the non islam world)?

What if they decide to do as their imams religious leaders instruct and impose their religion on the whole world, as religious tolerance is not allowed.

And if so, why are they still moslem? Could it be because 'good' muslims are commanded to kill 'bad' muslims who attempt to leave the religion?

Then they're not true Muslims, they're something else. Lapsed Muslims, perhaps?

If they believe the Koran, they must believe in the supremacy of Sharia law above all else. They obviously are fleeing from their own religious beliefs.

They would do well to look elsewhere for a set of beliefs, but not to Islam. I would recommend Christianity. For one thing, it is the truth and not a false religion founded by a murderous madman.
