Muslim Writers: Islam To Blame For Global Terror

[Ramrod]

A step in the right direction:

In a radical turn of events, Muslim writers from across the Arab world are admitting that Islam itself is a problem, and the only way to curb the terror carried out in its name is to conduct a fundamental overhaul of Islamic texts and their interpretations.....

Egyptian daily Al-Tahrir published an article by Amr Hosny charging Arab Muslim society with putting too much emphasis on the honor of Islam, even at the cost of violence. Hosny notes how Omar Mateen, the terrorist responsible for the massacre at the Pulse nightclub in Florida, was “offended because he saw two men kissing,” yet the murder of 49 innocent people did not offend him in the least.

"Every time an extremist Muslims commits a horrifying crime against humanity, some people come out and shriek that he has nothing to do with Islam, while ignoring the fact that views and ideologies do not exist as abstract entities, but rather take shape in the minds and behavior of those who believe in them in accordance with the surrounding culture that defines the nature of their relations with the other. The culture of our Islamic societies in this generation, particularly Arab societies, produces a violent Islam whose believers simply murder anyone who disagrees with them under the pretext of being offended. This, while they [the Muslims] never consider anyone else’s feelings but their own."

Problem is that saying such things means a Fatwa or some such nonsense against the speakers

It's the constant change in interpretation that has caused a lot of the problems. "Scholars" with political aims changing the meaning of whole phrases.

This is very good news:

Muslims across France have attended Catholic Mass in a gesture of solidarity after the murder of a priest on Tuesday.
Fr Jacques Hamel was killed in his church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray near Rouen by two men who had pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group.
France's Muslim council, the CFCM, urged Muslims to show "solidarity and compassion" over the murder.
"We are all Catholics of France," said Anouar Kbibech, the head of the CFCM.
Services were held in Rouen as well as in Paris' Notre Dame Cathedral.

The decent majority shouldn't have to prove it but by doing so they send a very important message to the extremists and those who might be vulnerable to radicalisation.

that's the British B*llsh*t Corporation you're quoting there so don't be so sure:
Only A Few Hundred Muslims Attended ‘Solidarity’ Mass After Nice Attack

despite Nice’s top imam, Otman Aissaoui, leading a delegation to a Catholic mass, the country-wide response from France’s Muslims can only be described as underwhelming.

Imagine the Muslim response if some cartoons of Mohammed had been published.....

Islam unlike christianity has not evolved with the modern world and will continue to resist doing so as the modern world in many aspects just cannot fit into islam and those who cannot or will not change will continue to get more violent as time goes on. Islam needs an overhaul but it just isn't going to happen sorry if this isn't politically correct but islam is ruled by men and it's the male side of the religion that benefits most from keeping it as it is.

Very amusing, quoting Breitbart as a credible alternative to the BBC...

Well played, that man...

Yep, and the BBC is totally unbiased
edit, to be fait to the BBC they did mention (at the bottom of the article) that 50 muslims attended the mass but it was left to Breitbart to point out that it was actually a poor showing.

[Taf]

French media also noticed the "poor turnout" but didn't mention it until one outlet broke ranks.

The Muslim community in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray also refused to bury the attacker or at least refuse to do anything but the basic process. http://news.sky.com/story/muslims-re...miche-10517064

This is the thing though. People demand Muslims speak out against these attacks but ignore them when they do and diminish gestures designed to show condemnation of the attacks.

So true. The Daily Mail, Express, etc would be reluctant to run these stories as they are at odds with their Muslim hate message.
