Lots of folks do associate Tim Mcveigh with hard right white folks like me.

In fact you and several others have been using that analogy as a moral equivalency tool on occasion since this thread started.

This is about black muslims in the military right now whose loyalty may be in question. How many White Christian Identity fools do you reckon are in the military?

I bet the average Farakhan rally has 10 times the number of all the white supremacist memberships combined in the nation.

Do I draw a moral equivalence between muslim terrorists and terrorists like Tim McVeigh?

Absolutely.

Am I blind to the fact that muslim terrorists appear to make up a much greater percentage of the total muslim population than terrorists like McVeigh are a percentage of the white Christian population? Not at all.

But even though I comprehend there is a serious problem with the muslim extremism in the world, I do not at all buy into the idea that even one in 10 muslims in the world are fanatics who want to harm you and me.
