I agree, it is so difficult to say anything on this forum without someone accusing you of sympathizing with these animals.
I have read recently that the mainstream Muslims are rethinking their positions in regard to the terrorists. We have seen the Egyptians throwing off the muslim brotherhood. Christian and Muslim scholars are getting together to find common ground. These are good things. Also, in Iran there are so many Muslims converting to Christianity that the government has told them to just stay quiet about it instead of exacting islamic justice on them. So, it would be safe to say that things are moving on a level that we really can’t comprehend.
