Hard to disagree with the radio host. He's right. All sorts of atrocities happen in the name of islam and we're hard pressed to find a recognized muslim leader to condemn these things. At the same time we can quite readily find mobs of muslims who are in the streets CELEBRATING these atrocities. Good thing the radio host isn't in Canada or he'd be in front of the CHRC to have his right to free speech taken away from him.
That's because there simply isn't one. Many Muslim Clerics do condemn Terrorist Acts, but there's nohing approaching a Pope or central Person who speaks for a very large segment of Muslims.
What bullshit, in both your parts. Why do Muslims need a central figure to denounce violence by people they are barely associated with? Once again, you confuse Islam with Islamism. Most Muslims around the world do not agree with the violence caused by terrorists in the name of their religion.
If a large portion of Canadians were conducting terrorist acts around the world, the Canadian Government would list the men involved as terrorists and make a man hunt against them. Trying them in there courts, and putting them in jail for there crimes.
Same would happen if a large ammount of American citizens did it, French Citizens, British Citizens. The people will always express there detest of those organization, even if its there own people.
Whats the difference? When we witness a terrible action caused by one of our own people, we look to fix the situation because its our own people and only we can deal with them.
After all these terrorist actions being brought out in the name of islam, how many islamic people do you know that expressed there detest against it? None that I know of, none in the news (Muslim Country News), not anywhere.
Infact there was a article about Islamic terrorists that went into a Israel School, shot up the place with AK-47's. Next day later, the streets filled with Islamic followers celebrating the school shooting. Not protesting it, but celebrating it.
It is simple, these terrorist religous fanatics are giving there religion a bad name and commiting horrible acts all over the world. Yet they do not protest against these terrorists, they do not do anything to stop it. They don't need some one man speaking for them, but I also don't see a majority speaking for themselves on the subject either.
The same majority that protested against a Cartoon that showed there profet mohammad, the same protest against a British school-teacher that allowed one of her kids to name a teddy-bear muhammad.
Obviously they can mass protest a school teacher for naming a teddy bear, but they can't protest the horrible actions of terrorists?
