Thanks, JimRob. We are going to need the help of the mainstream Muslim community in this country to ferret out the terrorists among them. And we are going to need the help of moderate Arab states to get the intel and infiltrators to get at terrorist groups. Bashing all Muslims is counterproductive to what this country needs to accomplish.

AMEN! Cloaking bigotry in a veil of patriotism is infuriating. There is nothing patriotic about attacking and harassing fellow American citizens.

When are we going to see the 'mainstream' muslim community doing something to ferret out the terrorist networks?

Once I see some action from them, rather than just whining, I will be optimistic.

But show me one news account of anything like cooperation from the American muslim community, since the time of this disaster?

Anyone see news stories of shopkeepers coming forth, helping the FBI, as translators, etc.?

And I don't mean name names, just some indication that the American muslims are getting off their a$$es to help.

I have yet to see such a story. Lots of hand-holding and candle lighting, but where's the beef?

Meanwhile, the "kindler, gentler, caddie" would like to close with my new theme song:

"I love you,"

"You love me"

"We're a FReeping Family"

"With a hug and kiss from me to all of you."

"We won't say anything about minorities, too."
