She has every right to be on the radio. I don't see where she even used the word "all". To you is there even a possibility that a culture itself, not the people, could be at fault?

But you yourself just acknowledged that there are extremists of all cultures and religions. Is the Jewish culture to blame for the actions of some of the people? No. How about the Christian culture? No. I myself am part of the "White, Christian" culture - I certainly don't hold my culture or religion to blame for the actions of the KKK.

As long as there are Muslim men and women out there who are not murderers, I will never believe it was the "culture" that did it. People are crazy. People do crazy things in the name of their religion and culture. That doesn't make the culture and religion "bad", "evil", or "sadistic", and it shouldn't prevent people from learning about it.
