I saw over the weekend that some Brits felt that way. If anyone other than a Muslim observed that the mess we've made of Iraq, and our siding with Israel over Lebanon, and our Middle East policy in general makes it more likely that young Arabs will want to bomb us, I think the observation would be non-controversial. The only difference when Muslims say it, as far as I can tell, is that we think their religious views may lead them to support terrorism, and so we think they ought to keep quiet, at the least.

If we are going to win this war, it's going to be by making common cause with Muslim moderates. To do that, it helps to listen to them.
