But will they renounce and condemn bin Laden, e.g., by name? No.

They are not sincere.

[Sir Gawain]

Whatever.

[Threepwood]

Other 'izms' and systems had failed, therefore, Islam should be accepted as a complete code of life.

I suspect there is teeny logical flaw there. How has Islam succeeded where these other systems failed? Nothing but across the board success? Very sloppy.

Quote:

They urged the United States and the European Union to differentiate between Muslims and terrorists.

I for one will be happy to do so when Muslim spokesmen tell me how to separate the terrorists and their supporters from other Muslims at a glance.

[SandRat]

They urged the United States and the European Union to differentiate between Muslims and terrorists.

And what does he think we've been doing? Playing spin the bottle?

If he really wanted to help he and the rest of the Imams and Mullahs would issue a Fahtwa on all terrorists trying to hide behind Islam and order all of the faithful to turn in any Terrorist trying to hide behind Islam. Directing that the faithful turn them in to the US, UK, or any of the other of the participating Coalition partners HUNTINGthe terrorists.

If they don't do that they are just making noise for the sake of noise!

And while we are at it, the Pope can do the same for anyone who participates or helps the IRA conduct terrorist activities. When an IRA terrorist is caught and when convicted the Pope should excommunicate their "six" with predujice, to borrow a phrase out of Blacks Law Dictionary.

I do not hear the Muslim leaders here and around the world speaking out. What are they afraid of - speaking the truth? Is that too alien to them?

When Al Queda starts to be an "equal oportunity employer" when it hires homocide bombers, I'll think about it.

[Mind-numbed Robot]

On the occasion, 10,000 Muslims vowed to protect Islamic principles, stick to the belief of finality of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and resist anti-Islamic forces.

Does this still mean death to all non-Muslims? Ask Salman Rushdie how easy it is to be labeled anti-Islam. They should be targeting the Imams who support the terrorists and hate everyone else, even other Muslims, not the West. Since they didn't, nothing has changed.

I wonder if Charlotte Kates of Rutgers University is one of the converts to Islam? Her hatred campaign is more typical then the mouthings reported here. Perhaps she should be asked the question. ckates@pegasus.rutgers.edu

Methinks the admonition should be directed towards a different audience! The West is not confused about the subject.

[EvilOverlord]

We will differentiate between muslims and terrorists when muslims differentiate themselves from the terrorists. We in the west hear nothing from muslims but "Death to America" and encouragement of the terrorists. We see nothing but dancing in the streets over dead Americans and dead Jews. When we hear muslims consistently speaking out against terrorism and when we see muslim governments rooting out terrorism and those who praise it, we will differentiate.

Here in the real world, we respond actions taken, not to unearned claims of victimhood.

Around 10,000 Muslim scholars from all over the world attended the conference...

No scholar of any mentality is going to believe Mohammed is a messenger of God.

[Cachelot]

West asked to differentiate between Muslims, terrorists

How???

[FreedomCalls]

I will differentiate between Muslims and terrorists when the Imams at the Grand Mosque in Mecca cease to use the Friday prayer to call for the destruction of Jews and Americans.

I will differentiate between Muslims and terrorists when the Imams in Baghdad cease holding bomb-belt making classes in holy Muslim Mosques.

I will differentiate between Muslims and terrorists when the world's oldest terrorist, Yassir Arafat, is condemned by Muslim Imams.

I will differentiate between Muslims and terrorists when Imams condemn terror acts.

I will differentiate between Muslims and terrorists when Muslims in Iraq clear out the military weaponry hidden in Muslim mosques.

I will differentiate between Muslims and terrorists when Mulims love their children more than they hate Jews.

I will differentiate between Muslims and terrorists when Saudi Arabia, the protector of the most holy Muslim sites, is ran by people who do not fund terrorism.

I will differentiate between Muslims and terrorists when the Saudi funded Madrasas teach science and math rather than methods of murder and hate.

I will differentiate between Muslims and terrorists when ...

... you fill in the rest.

[Coroner]

Differentiate between muslims and terrorists. The terrorists do the actual killing, the muslims sit on the sidelines and applaud what the terrorists have done!!

[F.J. Mitchell]

We would love to differentiate between Muslims and terrorists, but how does the west go about separating these one brain sharing siamese twins?

[Gringo1]

No thanks. I'll stick to my original thoughts on the subject.

[ex-snook]

"I don't have the faintest. Islam is the religion of peace and terrorists can't still hate us for our Bill of Rights, can they?"

If we are to fight it successfuly, the administration needs to get a clue as to why terrorism exists?

[Kay Soze]

They need to differiantiate themselves from the terrorists.
