I disagree. He is defending his faith only and not the miscreants who carry the terrorist banner. Remember often the same dudes who are wearing the osama tee shirts are also wearing NIKE sneakers. Thats really the contest there. For most folks it has less to do with religion and more to do with having a future different from the dismal conditions they find themselves in now. I am not saying we should buy them nikes but what they need is the opportunity to get a job and earn enuff money to play in our world. Then and only then Osama goes away for good.

"You know damn well that she's not talking about all muslims,

Sorry Geoff but you are simply wrong. At first I thought maybe she wasn't being careful about which Muslims she meant so I challenged her on it. She has been very clear about her position being that this terrorist brand of Islam is authentic Islam at the core. I have had this dispute with her repeatedly. I have argued that the terrorists have corrupted the Quran to justify their actions. She argues that it is the authentic Islam that they represent and that the rest of the Muslims are trying to hide it.

"Rough, it's you who are perverting everything that Nadine posts to you."

Incorrect. I can provide the links but I suspect you are too committed in your loyalties to care about the truth in this matter. So, I wont waste my time on it.
