With a sincere respect I must reply to Mr. Hakan Ozkaplan of Istanbul, Turkey. The deafening silence exhibited by the world's Muslim population to the brutality and murder repeatedly committed in the name of Islam speaks a loud and clear message. Where is international Islam's cries of outrage against those who would defame and pervert the message of the Prophet? If Islam is the "religion of peace" where are Islam's prominent peace emissaries?

p>Many of us would like to embrace those in the Muslim world as fellow-creations of a wonderful and merciful God. This will never happen unless the leaders of Islam loudly, clearly, and repeatedly denounce the cult of death and destruction. br> -- David Tucker br> St. Louis, Missouri /p> p> SOFT-HEADED br> Re: Jacob Laksin's
