Americans for many generations have internalized – and have actually practiced – the notion of tolerance, of not criticizing another man’s religion. I think that, surprisingly, few people in America (almost no one until recently) have discussed the connection between Islamic terrorism and the nature of Islam proper. (This issue is not new. I remember how more than 20 years ago some friends – immigrants from India – were theorizing on the subject that “Islam is NOT a peaceful religion”). In the end, it really doesn’t matter. In the end, indeed, most Muslims want to live peacefully, they want to live and let live. The real question is, Will they be able to control their extreme elements? Will they be able to make it dangerous, uncool and unacceptable to be an IslamIST? Will they understand that the new attempt to restore militant Islam into being a world power is infinitely dangerous to them – ESPECIALLY if it succeeds?
