Western silence on the apostasy issue will not help Islamic moderates; rather, silence is more likely to make both Muslims and also converts out of Islam believe that the issue is unimportant to the outside world. Calling the evil empire the "evil empire" had a liberating effect for those under its rule. The same principle applies here.
