I agree with Tarek...to a point!

Reader comment on item: Radical Islam vs. Civilization
in response to reader comment: Constructive criticism is better

Mandi, I agree with Tarek to a point. He wrote:

"Mandi, feel free to speak the truth. Maybe someone will engage you in real dialogue instead of just calling you names."

And I agree there. If, and I do use the conditional word if, you speak the truth, people will engage in real dialogue with you. If you simply spout New Age Bliss Bunny platitudes that do not address reality, then yes, people will call you names. There, Tarek and I agree.

As for the rest of Tarek's drivel, I've already addressed those claims many times before, no need to repeat myself.
