This might start up some flames, but I agree with the brittish Muslim leadership (from their meeting with Tony Blair) that its not only enough to condem the attacks, but they need to flush out the extreemists within their communities.
I get so tired of the random muslim 'man on the street' whining into a camera and saying that the attacks arent reflective of Islam. Quit bitching and do something about it. (a stretch of an analogy here, but it somewhat illustrates the point of a community working to solve problems) GLO's learned this lesson years ago. We dont just bitch about the media portrayal, but we do community service and give back to our communities, in addition to working to eliminate the behaviors that reflect poorly on us.
Why cant they take control of their communities and work from within to help stop this stuff? They will be the ones that can stop it, not us on the outside of the religion.
