I agree totally with what Joe says. You never hear any Muslim condemn the terrorist acts on the baises that killing anyone in such a way is wrong. You just don't. I am still waiting for the big Muslim uprising against such killings of innocent people. I am waiting for Muslims to stand up and say killing is wrong. Where are they? Instead we get pretend condemnations, and the especially sick statements like Joe mentioned above. It leads you to understand that they do not think it is wrong. How sad it really is when killing children is not totally wrong and is justifiable. Pretty pathetic actually. But so it seems is the Muslim mentality. Sorry but where are the Muslim leaders to refute what i just said. I will await their refutals.
