Did you write an open letter on behalf of Christians that denounced the Branch Davidian massacre, or Jonestown, or any abortion clinic bombing? Yeah, me neither.

I think Islamic leaders and members have said countless times they denounce terrorism. But people who paint with broad brush only hear what they want to hear.

...and remember Bengazhi?

I don't demand peaceful muslims apologize for acts they had nothing to do with - just like I don't feel the least bit obligated to apologize for the death of George Tiller who was murdered on behalf of insane Christian zealots.
