What of those Muslims who live in the US and those who do not agree with the violence perpertrated on innocents? I
They better stand up and take their ideology back from the abusers before we are forced to take more drastic measures.

There are good things about almost every ideology, religion, etc. They become a problem when taken to extremes - all of them.

Take communism for example , the idea of no strife because everybody works together and shares is a nice one. As is a government where everybody gets to participate directly and self-critics their flaws realistically. Of course it won't work, but its still a nice idea.

I do not believe that Islam as a religion is what we are fighting but those who bring violence to the world in the name of their religion.
I agree with you. I don't have a problem with Mohammed or praying 5 times a day facing East. But when the radical minority rules the roost, is it still the minority? Is it our fault?
