The voices and people of moderate Islam are moderately planning to drink the blood of the Jews when the moderate Muslim brotherhood ascends to power in Egypt.

Moderate? Extremists? It is lousy language as applied to politics.

Where are they?

I believe there are peaceful Muslims. However, I believe that they are peaceful primarily because they lack the personal wherewithal to cut someone's head off, but deep down, they share the same ideology and goals of their radical brethren.

Moderate islam just gives kills the men and takes the rest as serfs & slaves.
Radical islam kills them all.

[Will88]

president George W. Bush made the statement that “Islam is a religion of peace.”

Like on most of the bigger issues, W totally missed the mark on Islam, also.

A more accurate summation comes from ex-Muslims: There may be moderate Muslims, but there is no moderate Islam.

moslem = terrorist.

Their scriptures demand it. There are no moderate moslems. There are active terrorists and sleeper terrorists. Every moslem is a terrorist.

I believe if voices of moderate Islam existed they would have been heard from long ago.

I'm also of the opinion that "moderate Islamist" individuals would not mind if western culture "surcame" to Islam, even if those individuals aren't actively engaged in terrorism and tyranny themselves.

Western culture finds itself in this precarious position of siege from external Islamofascism because of the internal undermining efforts of western leftists. They are allies in the destruction of freedom.

“Moderate” Islam?

As in... the type who will kill you quickly, vs. one who will make you suffer awhile?

[reagan_fanatic]

Radical muslim: Thinks jihad should spread across the entire world and enslave or kill anyone who doesn't pledge allegiance to allah.

Moderate muslim: Dittos, just doesn't say it out loud.

Where are the voices of moderate Islam?

cowering in a corner...and shouting allah achbar....

[ScottinVA]

“Islam is a religion of peace.”

"Religion of Beast" is more fitting.

[yldstrk]

There aren’t any. Islam is the religion of the spirit alright, Satan’s spirit.

[vortec94]

I would suggest that there are no “moderate” Muslims. There are “patient” and “impatient” Muslim’s.

[liberalh8ter]

Exactly right. Those “moderates” who are in America now only came here to get first dibs on our “stuff”. They’re no different than vultures circling above their prey.

[Little Ray]

I believe there are peaceful Muslims who practice Islam the way some “Christians” practice Christianity - in name only. Think of of them as “PCUSA” Muslims.
It might even be most Muslims, but the “charity” pillar of Islam means that they support Jihadist through their donations. They also provide cover for Jihadists to move around under, and may sponsor or even wage “Lawfare” on behalf of them.

[SonOfDarkSkies]

Moderate muslims = lapsed or apostate muslims who have assimilated into Western culture.

Authentic muslims = fanatics, extremists, radicals

[snoringbear]

“Where are the voices of moderate Islam? cowering in a corner...and shouting allah achbar....”

It's much more simple; there are NO moderate Islamists.

[My hearts in London - Everett]

There is no such thing as “moderate” Islam, so why would it have a voice?
