The millions of muslims who are appalled by this act. I'd be happy with 10,000 of them rallying the street with signs stating something near "We are muslims and we condemn such acts: fuck you jidhaists!". Just to balance the 10,000 "moderate" muslims who rallied the streets of London with signs stating something near "We will kill you all and rape your wives to avenge the prophet!" when a cartoon (a cartoon!!) of Mohamed was published. Give me a shout when you hear or see that happening.
Rest assured that if yesterday's event were replaced by a bomb in a mosquee killing 12 muslims, you would have riots going on all over Europe right now with hundreds of thousands of "moderate" muslims rallying the streets against the infidels.
Only muslims can put an end to the growing feeling of untrust towards their religion, simply taking the only side they should take: the side of clear, public condemnation of such acts and isolation of the radicalists. Faithfully and yet impatiently waiting. Tomorrow is mourning day in France and i still hope to see such a thing happening, although i won't be surprised at all if it will not happen.
Ten thousand Muslims rallying with signs? Why? To make you feel better? Not a good reason for a rally. That's like asking 10,000 Catholics to rally in condemnation of the IRA. It would never have happened. The best thing the Muslim community of Paris can do is what they are doing -- providing the cops with tips to help catch the shooters. And it should not be just Muslims --- people of all faiths should be in attendance. This was not an attack by a government, but by small group of people.
It is not the burden of Islam to make you trust their religion anymore than it's a Christian's burden to make them trust Christianity. By the way, what makes you think we've given rank-and-file Muslims reason to listen to the West, given that we've laid waste to two countries under the pretense of catching a handful of terrorists (we were in fact, trying to secure oil resources). Hundreds of thousands of men, women and children lost their lives -- not to mention over 3,000 of our own troops -- fighting a war of regime change. Why should they trust Christians or the West?
