At last recognition of Islam for what it is.

Ever since the outrage at the Subaro resturant in Jerusalem, I have been searching in vain for Islamic leadership to call such suicide an "evil refuge" as the Koran puts it. If there is a mainline "peaceful Islam" it is apparently not free even in this country. The brave West Coast Supreme Islamic Council (of the USA not Canada which tows the west is bad line) is threatened and drowned out as judged by articles on their website. Therefore, I have found Mr. Pipes correct. Most of the Islamic organizations in the US and in fact the world are of the Saudi-Wahhabi bent and subversive to the indigenous peaceful Islamic populations or organizations. They and their institutions should be viewed as such in light of the lack of bravery to disclaim such attacks on civilized humanity or take sincere steps to keep their ranks from being infected.
