>>declaration that islam is a hate and murder cult. <<

I once thought the same, until a Free Republic poster pointed out that he knew some very decent Muslim-Americans, one a friend who was fighting in Iraq at the time.

So, I began to read extensively to try to sort out which Muslims we should listen to and which we need to fear.

It is true that face of Islam that we see most often in America is the Saudi-backed Wahhabi extremist one. These groups mean great harm to American citizens, both non-Wahhabi Muslims and non-Muslims.

Saudi oil money funds the Wahhabi extremists who build the mosques, provide endowments to major universities, and build Muslim schools and cultural institutions in America.

But there are silent Muslims, too, in America, who left politics behind when they got here. And The Wahhabis do everything possible to keep non-Wahhabi Muslims silent, too.

We need to protest loudly about the Wahhabis in America, and possibly other violent, totalitarian groups, but not all Muslims. Removing all Muslims would make us as totalitarian-minded as the Wahhabis themselves.

As an aside, one way to cut Wahhabi and other terrorist funding would be to wipe out the Saudi oil wealth by buying Iraq oil exclusively. I hope to see this day.
