#1 Law of Unintended Consequences? Looks like GW's WOT has seriously destabilized the muslim world. Khobar and Karachi. The jihad is as much an internal battle for Islam as much as it is external on the kufir.

#2 john - If you agree with the following, then it is not really directed at you - it's for general consumption. If not, well, hit me back!

I assume you're referring to the "blue on blue" of "immoderate" Muslims killing each other. That's predominantly ocurring in PakiWakiLand and wherever AlQ acts occur, few as those are, as they seem to have a penchant for shitting on the living room carpet. Regards Islam, does it matter if one is passive or active? When an active jihadi demands it, the passive jihadi gives whatever is demanded. It is demonstrated repeatedly every day. I challenge the mythical moderate Muslims to actually do something about the very real immoderate Muslims.

1) Family.
2) Clan / Tribe.
3) Islam.

That's the loyalty list. Nation isn't there. Civility and reason are missing, too. Tolerance and coexistence are out of town, as well. Peace? Nope.

Why? See #3 - Islam. Read the Qu'uran and the Haddiths. Think you have located an exception? Pfeh, the point was pre-empted by motives from #1 or #2.
:-)

#3 I wish our world had the luxury of just sitting back letting the militant Islamists wipe themselves out via murderous internecine strife. Sadly, they are not doing so quickly enough and we must accelerate this process immensely in order to avoid the messy backsplash of their unhinged scatterfire's collateral damage.
