“Why am I reminded of moderate Muslims failing to condemn the terrorists of their own religion?”
I remember another Freeper posting that the Muslim culture kept any Muslim from being truly “moderate”...as long as they financially supported terrorist charities and violent mullahs and refused to speak out against their most radical, murderous elements, they were simply support units for terrorists.
A candid mind does perceive a pattern.
In the US military, only 10% of personnel have jobs involving actual fighting. The other 90% are occupied with providing food, shelter, transport, supply, training, pay, etc for the trigger-pullers. Yet if somebody tried talking to you about making a distinction that the 90% were "moderate" military while the trigger-pullers were "extremist" military, you would probably look at him like he's crazy or stupid.
