Well now the islamists are upset , hey stop the presses for that. Just what name is right to call the muslims who wish us dead , who plot and plan and scream hate while holding a koran ? No matter what word was choosen it would have been wrong in the eyes of people looking for trouble. Instead of focussing on what word to use , may be c.a.i.r. should be working to fight the bad muslims ( what ever you call them). We know this is not happening , they will always find a reason to justify the anger of islamofacists. Saying that the lattest attack or killing was our own fault because we did such and such or some thing else. In their eyes it is never the fault of the radical islamists.

There are decent , kind muslims , but there are evil people in every large group of people including muslims. What ever you call these people they are bad just the same.
