When will the media, even the conservative media, start reporting that the people plotting terrorist acts are NOT just a weird fringe Muslim extremist element who are poor and disenfranchised. They are not single males with no social ties or abilities. We are consistently lead to believe that the people carrying out or attempting to carry terrorist acts are some sort of fringe element, mostly certifiably crazy. This is hiding the TRUTH.
Truth is that the people engaged in the most recent attempt in Britain were VERY normal.
College students in BioChemistry?? One of which was a leader in a local Islamic group?
One had a child? 25 people found and twenty some more not arrained yet?
How does this translate to fringe extremists??
By the way, where are the "non-fringe", "non-extremist" Muslims who are denouncing these acts and the acts of Hezbollah?
Where are the "peace loving" Muslims who are making public statements against these terrorists? With the substantial population in Detroit and Great Britain, I'd think we should be seeing something coming from there. Where is it?
The majority of Muslims are committed to their religion. Period. We, the rest of the peace loving world, had better begin understanding what exactly the tenets of their religion are.
I think they would surprise you.
