Second, now we are getting somewhere in this discussion. The above makes me feel better. What worries me is that I think some Islamics might place their religion first and America second. And if their religious leaders were to direct them to "Kill All Americans", they just might do that. Now if this has been done in the past, and most Islamics living in America DID NOT go around killing people, then that makes me feel a WHOLE lot better. But, did any American Islamics contribute financially to terrorist actions or assist them in any way? Also, is bin Laden a religious leader? Are the clerics more of a religious leader than bin Laden? i.e. Are Islamics living in America more likely to listen to a cleric than to bin Laden? What worries me is that I am NOT seeing Islamics living in America denouncing bin Laden publicly. Actions speak louder than words. Anyway I have an open mind and will listen to what people have to say. I think we all need to learn more about Islamics and their culture. Is it the case that American Islamics are afraid of bin Laden? If afraid, would a public denouncement of bin Laden endanger them?
