U.S. Muslims ask why their religion's condemnation of violence often goes unheard

Because you cannot hear what is not said.

“The Council on American-Islamic Relations sent out an email: “Bigoted speech can never be an excuse for violence.””

Because that isn’t a condemnation. It’s a lame excuse to try to place a moral equivalence on it.

Excellent answer. Correct, clear and concise.

The loudest so called condemnation would be drowned out by the squeak of a dying field mouse.

“Because you cannot hear what is not said.”


I will add: because their own fellow Muslims refuse to listen to the supposed condemnations of their acts - or that they are not hearing any condemnations either (as you wrote).
