What you are saying is that for those reasons, etc, etc, there are a couple of bad apples in an otherwise good barrel. How do you know that is the case? Why can it not be that the "moderates" are lending tacit support? IOW, the barrel is full of apples. A few rotten ones, a few good ones and the rest are good on the outside but rotten in the core? IOW how do you know that those moderates are being silenced by the fanatics? How do you know it isn't that the "moderates" are lending tacit support in terms of financial, logistical, moral, etc, etc?
