Lorne, we have the Saudis who are Muslims and we have the Iraqis who are Muslims and the Moroccons who are also Muslims. Seeing that majority of the Al Qaeda members we hear about are Sauds, majority of the 19 hijackers are Sauds does not have anything to do with their faith, is it? Could it be their national history instead. On the other hand the Iraqis and the Moroccons who like the Sauds are Muslims as well as Arabs are more leaning towards culture and the arts, not that much into radicalism etc. In the case of Iraq we have a leader that is madman. But Iraqis as such are very progressive folks and are not into terrorism etc. So I think we have to look at the history of those individual and not their religious faith. Indonesia is the largest Muslim country. But the Indonesians are moderate Muslims. They read the same Koran as the Sauds do. Something to think about I guess.
