"Sadly people like her, who would be willing to take a stand against the radicals, are seriously lacking."
Sadly too many alleged muslims like her are not taking a stand against the radicals in the mid east or located in other countries. THAT IS WHY OUR MILITARY HAD TO GO OVER THERE and rid the mid east of sickos like Saddam and Sons who BTW were allowed to gas, torture and rape their own citizens while the rest of the citizens shook in fear. Sadly too often it takes outside forces to "free" people too willing to sit back and do nothing verbally or physically as had to be done during WWII, ridding the world of sicko Hitler and Mussolini.
I suggest you don't diss a friend of mine without actually knowing the person or their family. Like President Bush, I take it personally when someone slams a good friend. That said, I guess you wouldn't approve of her younger brother serving in the U.S. Army in Afghanistan.
