Thanks for the links, I have them printed for later reading. This is a Muslim voice, from an Iraqi who now teaches here and has written books about Iraq ~ snippet ~ Muslims and Arabs have to be on the front lines of a new kind of war, one that is worth waging for their own salvation and in their own souls. And that, as good out-of-fashion Muslim scholars will tell you, is the true meaning of jihad, a meaning that has been hijacked by terrorists and suicide bombers and all those who applaud or find excuses for them. To exorcise what they have done in our name is the civilisational challenge of the 21st century for every Arab and Muslim in the world today. Kanan Makiya was born in Iraq and teaches in the US. His books include Cruelty and Silence: War, Tyranny, Uprising and the Arab World, and the forthcoming The Rock. theage.com.au
