Why are they not making their outrage known, PUBLICLY and LOUDLY, when terrorist commit horrible atrocities that tarnish the image and reputation of Muslims everywhere?....

See, it is a problem I have too. I see that they can get outraged at Salman Rushdie and lately the Dutch Cartoonist and have all kinds of protests. Probably will boycott Carlsberg beer for all I know. Taht tells me that over their religion, they can get into a hissy fit. OK. So, now we have somebody doing things in the name of their religion and why the silence? If I said that I am killing people in the name of Religion X and you are religion X, aren't you going to stand up and denounce me?
