[QUOTE]Originally posted by Dalia*: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by homing pigeon: [qb]I got a suggestion that I'm surprised how the West (which is a grandiose designation for the US :) ) did not notice. Investigating the moderate side of Islam and propagating its message!....what? not a good idea? [/qb][/QUOTE]Not wanting to interfere in this discussion, but a short while ago I was watching a brief video containing, among other things, a debate between Reza Aslan and Jack Cafferty. And reading this thread just brought the following exchange to my mind: CAFFERTY: [i]Let me go back to something I asked you a minute ago. If that's the case and they have succeeded arguably beyond their wildest expectations, where is the organized voice of the moderate Muslim in the Middle East saying these people do not represent us? This is not what we stand for. Here is what we do stand for. Here is how we would like to, you know, change our image, change our ways, engage the west in whatever ways they choose to engage us, or not? [b]I mean, I'm not hearing anything from the organized moderate voice of Islam in the Middle East. Why not? [/b] [/i] ASLAN: [i]Well, [b]I hate to say this, but you're not listening hard enough.[/b] I mean this is a movement that is just enormous and overwhelming, [b]unfortunately, for some reason, we are not that cognizant of it here in the United States. Perhaps that may be because it's just not sexy enough for the media.[/b] But I can tell you from traveling throughout the Middle East and I think anyone who has in depth knowledge of the people and the cultures of the Middle East will tell you the same thing.[/i] ;) http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0505/01/cnnitm.01.html [URL=http://www.myspace.com/rezaaslan]www.myspace.com/rezaaslan[/URL] [/QB][/QUOTE]
