Dr. Pipes,

This is the second time you have indicated that you consider the PMU a rectionary organization. However, you have offered no proof of this statement. Even a cursory review of their website indicates that PMU voices some of the most revolutionary/unorthodox and anti-wahabbi views in the Muslim world. Many of the authors have espoused similair views to yours on matters of Islamic reform and terrorism. Your disagreement seems to be that they are so called leftist (whatever that might mean) and you judge them accordingly. It is time to move beyond labels and let's look at the substance.
