"Only Arabs and Muslims can fight the war of ideas within Islam."

Hi everyone

I read a great article in the New York Times about the battles with, and within, elements of Islam.

Here are 2 pithy quotes from it:

"Only Arabs and Muslims can fight the war of ideas within Islam."

"Whatever surge we do in the real Afghanistan has no chance of being a self-sustaining success, unless there is a parallel surge — by Arab and Muslim political and religious leaders — against those who promote violent jihadism on the ground in Muslim lands and online in the Virtual Afghanistan."

You can read the full article at link below: a penny for your thoughts!
