#1 come ON! What the hell else does anyone EXPECT these a-holes to say? Of course they'll express their concern, their sadness at the loss of innocents, their condemnation in the strongest terms. blah blah blah.

It's societal pressure. nothing more. no real deep outrage. if it were, they would have hit the streets long ago.

"Terrorism has been increasing and it is our religious duty to confront this evil," Ahmad Kutty, a Toronto imam, said.

BFD. Such a POWERFUL statement, it's gonna make all terrorists think twice. yeah, right.

And when you pin them down, they qualify their statements:
Sure it's terrible when innocents are killed, but you have to understand their reasons. And Israeli civilians are not innocent. And this is not islam. And America is perpetrating terror in Iraq. And many of these attacks are perpetrated by zionists who want muslims to be blamed. and on and on and on and I'm sick of them.

if they truly are outraged, then they should preach outrage to their people. say "we're not going to sit idly by" and hit the streets in visible demonstrations. Use the "not in our name" slogan.

but they don't. because they are secretly proud of how islam has become a world issue.

But they'll never admit that. in public. instead, they sign proclamations. and praise allan.
