People, get this through your heads. There is only Islam. Muslims are ‘moderate’ only if small in numbers.
The Sunni (Abd al Wahhab’s) version became the Saudis (who fund most of the mosques, CAIR, ISNA, etc., etc., in the US), which also captured the Muslim Brotherhood (assassination of Nasr & Sadat), Al Zawahiri, Bin Laden, Al Qaeda, the Khalifa/Caliphate movement….with allies in the US in the NOI.
Then, there’s hidden imam twelve (Iranian) Shi’ite, bat$h!t crazy people. These are the folks who’ll slice themselves up yearly in parades when they ‘celebrate’ the death of Hussein—pix you have no doubt seen.
Both will blow you to bits & die willingly.There is no such thing as moderation, except in pure numbers. Nor is there extremism.
