Violent extremists who are killing children and others in Iraq, Syria, Nigeria and other parts of the world may cite Islam as a justification, but the West should be careful about calling them Islamic radicals, Secretary of State John Kerry told an audience of opinion leaders Friday at the World Economic Forum.
In a speech calling for a global effort against violent extremism, Kerry said it would be a mistake to link Islam to criminal conduct rooted in alienation, poverty, thrill-seeking and other factors. …

“Nothing done in the name of islam has anything to do with islam.” - World Liberals
Somebody tell me again when John Effin’ became an expert on theology. BTT
“criminal conduct rooted in alienation, poverty, thrill-seeking and other factors. …”
Kerry doesn’t know history...nor the real nature of Islam. Pathetic!!!
Idiot.
“Kerry’s comments highlighted a rhetorical division between the U.S. and its closest allies. French President Francois Hollande told the same audience earlier Friday that Islamic extremism is a problem that must be opposed. On Thursday, British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond stood next to Kerry and urged the defeat of what he called “the scourge of violent Islamist extremism.”
So did the “world leaders” laugh at Kerry’s speech?
World Domination and kill all the Christians and Jews.
It's why it was founded and why it exists. And every Muslim on earth is as guilty as any Muslim terrorist.
It's not a religion. It's a political system....no different from Hitler's political system.
Does Kerry think he can reform Islam by saying, “It ain’t so?”
Does he think Muhammad the Pedophile was peaceful like Jesus? What a dolt.
Well, I think the Left struggle to identify irony.
Somebody graft a window into his navel so he can see where he’s going!
Lurch is such a friggin’ putz!
Funny, as soon as terrorists are arrested they all demand Islamic things: Korans, halal food, beards, etc. I guess they make the conversion in the back seats of the cop cars.
He believes Mo was a man of his culture and did what was acceptable in his culture.
here’s one article Kerry SHOULD read but won’t. In fact, the left hates the truth.

I can understand a Muslim like barry saying this crap.
But I do not understand a white, NON-muslim like Kerry, knowing full well that these ISLAMIC terrorists will cut HIS family’s throats if they get the chance, saying nonsense like this - political posturing or not.
Why do we have SO many in DC agreeing with this???
Surely they’re not ALL closet muslims like barry.
Liberals won’t be convinced until they are on a prayer rug facing Mecca five times a day!
The more Obama, Kerry and the other members and supporters of this wretched administration insult our intelligence, the more they call their own into legitimate question.
...and here’s another lesson for Kerry.
He should give this one to Obama.
