It's like saying "Gotta love a religion that allows people to protest soldiers funerals because the country they live in accepts homosexuality" (ala the Westboro Baptist Church.) Can't you see what is inherently wrong with a statement like that?
The real problem is the majority of Muslims don't want to either speak out against radicalism or take a stand against it because that ally's them with the USA.
Who can really blame them either? From their viewpoint we attacked a sovereign Muslim nation for a reason that turned out to be non-existent and then changed the reason mid way through the campaign. Of course normal muslims don't trust us. We have given them no reason to.
All this is a moot point now though. Unfortunately we can't pull out now. We have way to much at stake and the middle east would just have two Iran's if we did that.
As far as Pakistan is concerned the government there seems like it is barely clinging to control anyways. We should be happy we get as much cooperation out of them as we do. If Musharraaf ever gets taken out that whole region is in trouble.....

C'mon, that's quite a stretch; comparing funeral protests to slitting throats. :rotfl:
I realize that "Normal' Muslims > "radical" Muslims, but by taking no action, they're condoning it.

So the Catholic church condoned homosexual pedophilia for decades? Interesting...
By that logic, the Pope is responsible for the war in Iraq just as much as non extremist Muslims are.

We haven't even put anyone in concentration camps like we did with the Japanese and these people are afraid they're going to get lynched. We've talked about the extreme lack of hate crimes against Muslims in the US since 9/11 so it doesn't make any sense to me. It's sad watching their logic go to the crapper because of fear and bull****. They're all ****ing cowards.

I guess my point with the above is I really don't care anymore about peaceful Muslims not taking a stand. It obvious that they aren’t going to at this point.
I just wish they'd think differently about countries (the USA, UK, Aust, etc) that have done nothing to them. I wish they'd stop acting like they're the victims in all this mess.

Sticking to the immediate topic: The pope has nothing to do with the Taliban slitting throats.
