I clearly agree that we need to confront radicalism in Islam. As a secular Muslim, terrorism and general anti-West, anti-Israel attitudes and anti-Semitism among Muslims greatly distress me. I just feel so powerless to do anything about it. If you can suggest some ways, I will be obliged.

Daniel Pipes replies:

Anti-Islamist Muslims have a crucial role in the war against radical Islam - explaining the problem, proposing alternative visions, organizing themselves into a lobby, helping with intelligence-gathering, and so on.
