Try harder.

If it's so easy, link me an article (preferably with photos) of Muslims marching/protesting/gathering en masse to denounce the attacks. Hell, I'll qualify en masse as anything more than 500 people. That isn't much. Especially if they're 99% of Muslim populace.

I want there to be these protests....but I'm not sure they're happening.

Wow...that took about a minute. As I said...try harder.

Indian Muslims protest against deadly ISIL attacks

And what do you think would happen in America if a bunch of Muslims would go on a march in an American city.

Someone would likely get shot in this current climate.

I see an Al-Jazeera article with pictures of about 15 Muslims with picket signs and some unsubstantiated claims with very little details.

Then it clearly didn't happen and was just all made up.

Pathetic.

Indeed it has been. Indeed it has. Wasn't too hard at all for 50,000 of them to chant and boo during a moment of silence at a soccer game though.

http://blogs.timesofisrael.com/the-probl...e-muslims/

"In my childhood I was told that every day that passes on the Islamic nation without a caliphate is a sin. That the failures and miseries of the Muslim world started the moment we gave up conquests and wars against the infidels. That our prosperity depends on conquering new lands, converting new believers, looting new resources and enslaving more women. I was taught that a Jew is essentially a demon in flesh and that it is our destiny as good Muslims to kill them all. I was regularly fueled by battle stories and stories of lethal feuds of seventh century Arabia. It was not just me, a small child in Cairo, who was raised with these great apocalyptic prophecies, it was also so many people from all around the globe."

" Almost in every single occasion that Islamic terrorism is mentioned, Muslims’ first action is to defend their faith. They assert over and over how peaceful and beautiful Islam is. They are obsessed with their religion and care about it more than they care about stopping murder in its name. It should be clear that this kind of obsession is just another form of fundamentalism. The time has come to talk about how unhelpful and unhealthy their constant obsession with Islam is. Those Muslims need to know that it is more important right now to direct their efforts inside their communities to battle extremism than to polish the image of a faith soaked in blood. Constantly using the rhetoric of Islamophobia and defending their faith as if it was under attack does not help us to promote peace but actually makes the job of terrorist recruiters easier."

"If we are sincere about solving this pressing global issue, then we should be honest and truthful. We can’t fight cruel terrorists while we ally ourselves with people who commit similar atrocities but have more oil. We can’t allow ourselves to deceive our Muslim friends that it is their right to oppose free speech, LGBT rights, women’s rights etc. Moderate Muslims should not be part of the problem, they should be the solution. Islamic extremism will not be “degraded and ultimately destroyed” unless it is Muslims themselves who fight it. Being obsessed with religion is not a proper response and we should be honest and clear about that. I am aware of the fact that all I’m sharing is tough and not easy to do, but I can assure you that closing our eyes to reality will do us no good. Only acknowledging it will allow us to take our first steps toward a profound and desperately needed reform."

Very eye opening.

not to those that understand brainwashing techniques.....

The lead story on every local cbs, nbc, abc, fix, affiliate should be the head Muzzie at the local Mosque in America staton their condemnation of this and all Jihad.

But they can't ,... There may be some nice people that claim to be Muslim BUT they are not "Practicing ISLAM". But in time they will! All of them will.

Your typical would be world changer has it easy today. All they need to do is use a hashtag and the problem vanishes.

No...and that is why I don't trust a single fcking one of them in the world. Their silence is deafening.

Hundreds of British Muslims have taken out an advert in the national press to highlight their "united condemnation" of terrorism after the attacks in Paris.

I don't expect 1.6 billion to act. I do expect a majority to act if they oppose their supposed 1% of fellow Muslims.

Just not impressed with words from a few "hundreds" here, a few thousands there.

1.6 billion. A few hundred. Completely, totally, utterly meaningless.

So what is a majority? Is 800,000 people what you are looking for? Not trying to be facetious, just curious.

So, we're back to my previous comments then. You expect 1.58 billion people to act? Well, that isn't going to happen no matter the group and no matter the issue.

Not trying to be a dick but a few, even hundreds or thousands, speaking here and there is meaningless. There are 1.6 billion.

The numbers speaking up compared to the whole are the equivalent of deafening silence.

It all comes down to expecting a billion + people to act when what occurs has nothing to do with them. I mean, should white folks apologize for slavery today?

1. It was done in the name of Islam, so I expect them to at least stand up against it, not just sitting idly on their hands.

2. You are comparing apples to oranges.
