Right on that one man!

They are all the same. The Type II (peaceful?) Muslim next door can overnight turn into a dangerous zombie as soon as he gets in touch with his religion! or as soon as he gets a little "seminar" by his local mullah from the mosque (who can forget the American Taliban, a certain Mr. Walker who turned his back against his own country the U.S after he got an "injection" of Islam from Dr. No!! (Dr. Zarqawi!). I'm not worried by the Osamas and Zarqawi as they are the "known" enemies out there in the open. What worries most are the Type II, innocent looking Muslims living amongst us, like Azakd who shrewdly propagate Islam as a peaceful religion and use the technique of "holy lies" or Taqiyya to effectively confuse naive Westerners and non westerners alike.

Type I or Type II, their alliance and affinity is not to the Golden Rule or to our constitution, but to their Quran. There is nothing called as a "moderate Muslim". I have given up on that idea.
