There are people doing good work, but that's the small minority, which thankfully seems to be growing. The implication that PepsiFree made that it's the majority who are fighting against this stuff while a small minority do nothing is false and should be called to task.

How many Muslims do you think are fighting for/with ISIS? What do you consider 'fighting' against that? Physical altercations only? Only people that get papers and article published? Only people that have had to give their lives in the effected places? Is one young Muslim saying to another "don't listen to those people. They are crazy and everything that is wrong with our world" not fighting it by questioning the doctrine?
The point is, just because you don't see the fight, doesn't mean it's not happening. If you agree that there are more Muslims that are against ISIS than are fighting for them, then you have to agree that it is a majority.

See, to me, is that not the only way we can fight it? By undercutting their motivations and goals, relegating them to 'crazies' and all around not taking it as a serious threat? That's not to say that it's not, of course many people have died because of them. But isn't undermining them the only way we can really try to pull support away from them?
