The key - rise up! The peaceful Islamist are saying anything! No protests - nothing!

I would love to see people rise up myself, I just don't know how it happens.
We tried arming the Free Syrian Army to take down Assad. Some would say that only helped contribute to the rapid rise of ISIS.
How do you reform Islam to rid itself of Extremism in modern society with this many people involved? Iran has 80 million people, they conduct public executions. Saudi Arabia has 29 million people, they do the same thing. How do you rationalize with a population of people that allows women to get stoned in the town square for the act of adultery. It's unfathomable to me that such people even exist.

Wow, stunned by Turkish soccer fans booing moment of silence for Paris. I don't consider this to be the action of moderates. Other reports claim they then chanted ala albar.

Protests are happening.. Not a lot of coverage.. But I set up a news search and I see stuff every day.
I venture to say it's not as easy as you'd think to protest a thing like ISIS in ISIS territory..
And given the mafia tactics that groups like ISIS aspire to - I'd be afraid for my family if I said something..

I heard this analogy this morning on the refugees.
If you had a bunch of grapes and knew only one was poisoned and there was no way of telling. Would you feed them to your child?

Sad, but telling about how serious this is that it might bring closer cooperation between France, US and Russia, a strange pol-mil ménage à trois. Here in the DC area there is a general uneasiness. 9-11 seems not so long ago. At times like this I'd rather be, more than ever, far away in the mtns skiing instead of riding mass transit during rush hour or subject to other vulnerable urban situations. :roll:
This afternoon I will ride my bicycle home from work. It keeps me out of that big hole in the ground - the subway, which even in normal times can be unreliable, sketchy, and hideously crowded. Still don't like surrendering my destiny to the whims of mass transit even though I've used it for years.
PS: just adding that there are a lot of great moderate Muslims out there. We need to reach out to them all around us and let them know we appreciate their peace and harmony, meanwhile don't go easy on ISIS thugs.

Perhaps the better solution than war is to endure distasteful tactics at home. Follow the French example, declare a state of emergency, and take the gloves off for a little while. Do what we can to hit the rat where the fleas breed, and get after the rats on our carpet at home.
Of course, taking the power back from the government once ISIS burns itself out will be tough...

I spent last week in Paris with my girlfriend... It was great!
Muslims are everywhere! interacting with society.. Smiling at people... Sitting in cafe's.
Enjoying art at the museums... just awesome...
If we stop treating the Muslims here in the US like criminals maybe we can reach this level of integration where we can all get along in this society of immigrants...

You keep calling me that and obviously you have no idea who I am or what I send for. So stop calling me things that are not true. I just find that you are a person that has their mind set and all others are wrong and there is no way you see others viewpoints.

I didn't think it was a bad thing for you... sorry..
I won't do it again...
Respect..
But I doubt I'm going to sway to your beliefs. We are pretty different where thats concerned.
My beliefs are driven by compassion for all people.

..ie not much blue-collar work, especially for immigrants + government higher-ups who spend more time wineing and dining than record-keeping for security-sake.
