For those who insist that there is no distinction between Islam and radical Islam, here is a (constantly updated) bibliography of my articles justifying the difference:

"The Evil Isn't Islam." New York Post, 30 July 2002. My basic argument that the problem is radical Islam, not Islam.
"Islam's Future." New York Post, 13 August 2002. Replying to my critics to the above article.
"[The Search for Moderate Islam:] A Reply to Lawrence Auster." FrontPageMag.com, 28 January 2005. Response to a critic who claims that Islam itself is the probem.

Some general discussions of moderate Islam:

"[Finding Moderate Muslims:] Do you believe in modernity?" The Jerusalem Post, 26 November 2003. A number of questions to ask Muslims to distinguish Islamists from moderates.
"Identifying Moderate Muslims." The New York Sun, 23 November 2004. Examples of real moderates and faux moderates.
"Western Governments Define the Moderate Muslim." DanielPipes.org, 3 September 2005. A critique of official American and British efforts.
"Finding Moderate Muslims - More Questions." DanielPipes.org, 5 October 2005. Others' ideas of criteria to determine who is an Islamist and who is not.
"Is Islam the Problem? Is It the Solution?" DanielPipes.org, 27 December 2005. A response to Daniel Brumberg's dismissal of moderate Muslims.
"Bolstering Moderate Muslims." The New York Sun, 17 April 2007. Looks at a RAND Corporation study, Building Moderate Muslim Networks, that thinks through the challenge of helping moderate Muslims push back the Islamists.
"A Million Moderate Muslims on the March." The New York Sun, 8 May 2007. Takes note of the large-scale demonstrations by anti-Islamists in Karachi and across five cities in Turkey.

I have written several times on the subject of moderate Islam, providing specific names of individuals and institutions. But because I try not to repeat myself, these particulars are spread in various places, so it can be hard to see the totality. Therefore, I list the different articles here: .

"[Moderate] Voices of Islam." New York Post, 23 September 2003.
"Moderate Muslims March in Phoenix." FrontPageMag.com, 30 April 2004.
"Finally, Cries from the Moderate Muslim Heart." DanielPipes.org, 5 September 2004.
"Anti-Islamists Petition the United Nations." DanielPipes.org, 30 October 2004.
"Stephen Schwartz and the Center on Islamic Pluralism." DanielPipes.org, 25 March 2005.
"Free Muslims March against Terror." DanielPipes.org, 31 March 2005.
"Zuhdi Jasser and ‘Monitoring Islamist Media'." DanielPipes.org, 11 May 2006.
