WHAT? Islam Condems Terror??!!

Finally, a heartfelt condemnation from the Muslim community. Islamic editors have written against violence. Stating that Islam does not condone violence, the editors said that the bombings were indeed wrong.

However. . .

Yep, they qualified their disagreement with the bombings with statements like, "but, there would be no bombings if the US hadn't created the current terrorist climate."

I'm not kidding.

So if a burglar robs your house, his apologists could dismiss the crime with the following: "Of course robbery is wrong, but you know you had such nice stuff he just couldn't help it. If you were poor you wouldn't get robbed at all."

"Of course rape is wrong, but you know, she was just so pretty . . ."

"Of course rioting is wrong, but you know, we were just mad about good ol' Rodney. . ."

So what we have is a wolf in sheep's clothing. An excuse for the terrorist act overlaid in less than convincing anti-terrorist rhetoric signals exactly where the Islamic community stands on this issue. That is, sadly, on the side of evil. There is no doubt that these individuals would not participate in the act, but it is clear that they tacitly endorse the terror and may even be cheering for the bad guys.

So don't give me the ACLU politically correct line that these terrorists are the minority. They have plenty of support. And their support runs deep.
