The non-Islamic world has been subjected to a dichotomy: be destroyed by worldwide terrorist organizations OR attack the worldwide terrorists who claim to be Muslim.

If the non-Islamic world does not attack, then the terrorists are free to destroy ALL, by whatever means, who are not in agreement.

If the non-Islamic world does attack -- the question becomes a fundamental one of belief -- will the Islamic nations/people accept any terror in the name of Islam's Allah or will they accept the right of all religious people to purify their lives according to their belief it our all-inclusive Supreme Being?

All nations/religions must repudiate terrorism as an abomination against our beliefs.

Historical blame does not justify terrorist acts against people who had no participation in those historical acts and to those who do not approve nor continue them.

All peoples believe in a just and understanding Allah/God. Who are these people who presume to steak for Allah/God?

A phrase comes to mind "by their acts they shall be known." I sincerely hope this wasn't in reference to just 'good' people.

In America our schools teach "Black, Asian, Hispanic, Native America, etc." studies so that we can appreciate what their individual cultures have added to our national culture. Contrast that with the Taliban!
