THE PROBLEM IS ISLAM

If I have a single reader who has the slightest doubt that the root of terrorism is Islam, please, please go read this. It is a translation of the sermon given this week in a mosque in Gaza by an "official" immam, employed by the Palestinian Authority -- what passes for a Palestinian "government." Make yourself read the whole thing.

Here's the thing -- the violently racist diatribe you see is not "radical" Islam; it's mainstream, because it is solidly rooted in the text of the Koran and the accepted "facts" of Mohammed's life (the "sunnah"), which all faithful Muslims must take as the unerring word of god.
