Muslims offer condolences

Muslim organizations in the U.S. are condemning the London bombings. Gee, thanks.

Does the Muslim community not know who its extremists are? Do they have special mosques where only the fanatics go? Like Schulz from Hogan's Heroes, they say, "We know nu-thing!"

It is time to wake up to a larger problem with Muslims: They must clean their own house or quit bitching about the way non-Muslims are doing it. I mean, come on! If the community-at-large was really against the suicide bombs and killing of innocents, they would be outraged. And offering somber condolences after each batch of butchery is not outrage.

From the Muslim Public Affairs Council:


    "We at MPAC extend our heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims and the British people. As Americans, we are familiar with the imminent and the long-term repercussions of terrorism. Here at home, we stand in solidarity with law enforcement to maintain security, and we have every reason to believe that similar cooperation will take place in London."

Islamicity (I guess it's iviews.com now) says the London bombings are not the work of Islam:


    The ramifications of the terrorist attacks in London will undoubtedly be far-reaching and will be felt around the globe. They are also likely to further inspire a wave of international counter-terrorist cooperation between governments and security agencies, thus wasting valuable resources - time, money, but most importantly good will - that would have otherwise gone toward more productive endeavors.

Exactly! Now clean your own house, Muslims. Today, please. Not tomorrow.

And, of course, Britain itself is implicated in the London bombings because of its role in the Iraq war, which removed a genocidal Muslim madman. Islam Online has this:


    It is quite a paradox that Blair was the first to infuse the term “barbaric” following the London carnage—a paradox because the barbarism in London had an undeniable kinship with the years of barbarism in Iraq, barbarism which continues to unfold in full force.

The requisite condolences and condemnations from the Council on American-Islamic Relations:


    The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) joins Americans of all faiths, and all people of conscience worldwide, in condemning Thursday's bomb attacks in London as barbaric crimes that can never be justified or excused.

How about fixing the problem within your community BEFORE women, children, and other innocent people are slaughtered, instead of penning these condolence letters after the fact, eh Muslims? In the words of Judge Smails from Caddy Shack, “Well, we’re waiting.”

I am coming to believe that the only way to solve the problem with Muslim extremism is to stop distinguishing moderates from the extreme elements. After 9/11, countries were either with us or against us. That same message needs to be hand-delivered to the worldwide Muslim community. "Fix your problem our we'll fix it for you, and you're not going to like our methods."

Oh, wait! We're doing that already. GTMO is a shining example. The way to shut down GTMO forever, Muslims, is to....you're getting it now...clean your house.
