The amount ignorance and naivity in these three posts is so ridiculous that they aren't really worth response, but here goes.

Really? So Christians have never engaged in acts of extremism because of something that offended them? Is this something you honestly believe?

This really sucks for Islam and good muslims around the world.

However, muslims are really the only ones who can stop this.

Yet all they ever do is say "oh this is not the real us" and sit there with their arms crossed.

Muslims should really be leading the counter terrorist efforts to save their religion, beliefs and name.
Just what exactly are moderate Muslims supposed to do? Quite often they are just as much targets and victims of these attacks as non-Muslims are. There are numerous examples of Muslim leaders speaking out against these kinds of attacks, but what else can they really do? Do you really think it's logistically feasible to just have moderate Muslims from all over the world found some sort of anti-extremism task force and execute their plans without any kind of funding or legal jurisdiction from the various international bodies?

Again who is sitting around? Is it fair to blame all Christians for the attacks on doctors that perform abortions, or to blame all Catholics for the priests that go around diddling kids?
