"Our goal is to help the Muslim world move beyond this war through educational programs and other means", and the proof in the pudding will be the willingness of Muslims to see to it that religious freedom is extended to all, regardless of which faith tradition people adhere to.

Otherwise, all that will be accomplished is the continuing metaphysical sentence of those who
see the flaws of, in this case, what is purported to be Islam.
