“If we’re to succeed in defeating terrorism we must enlist Muslim communities as some of our strongest allies, rather than push them away,”
Agree with your statement, and add the question WHY!?
WHY should we enlist any Muslim to participate in talks when according to their Koran they are totally within their rights to lie, and they do so incessantly. How can there be discussion with them involved when the truth which is necessary to reach any agreement, consensus is disallowed by their lies?
The Quran gives Hussein O. justification to lie to the American people. The list of lies is VERY long.
