And I wishโas Andrew Stuttaford raised in his piece on Monday hereโthat moderate Muslims would take the cartoon story weโve all been talking about as a challenge. Why the heck would Mohammed be portrayed in such a way? Could, say, honor killings have something to do with it, for an example? How can a moderate Muslim stand itโknowing an โIslamic courtโ issues such laws? We need moderate Muslims not to be silent. Not all of them are, God bless themโฆbut we need more voices outraged not at not particularly inventive cartoon, but of how so many Islamic countries practice their brand of Islamโusing it as their vehicle for oppression and terror.
