We Are So Sorry for 9-11
This September 11 marks the third unforgettable anniversary of the worst mass murder in American history.

After September 11, many in the Muslim world chose denial and hallucination rather than face up to the sad fact that Muslims perpetrated the 9-11 terrorist acts and that we have an enormous problem with extremism and support for terrorism. Many Muslims, including religious leaders, and “intellectuals” blamed 9-11 on a Jewish conspiracy and went as far as fabricating a tale that 4000 Jews did not show up for work in the World Trade Center on 9-11. Yet others blamed 9-11 on an American right wing conspiracy or the U.S. Government which allegedly wanted an excuse to invade Iraq and “steal” Iraqi oil.

After numerous admissions of guilt by Bin Laden and numerous corroborating admissions by captured top level Al-Qaida operatives, we wonder, does the Muslim leadership have the dignity and courage to apologize for 9-11?
If not 9-11, will we apologize for the murder of school children in Russia?

If not Russia, will we apologize for the train bombings in Madrid, Spain?

If not Spain, will we apologize for suicide bombings in buses, restaurants and other public places?

If not suicide bombings, will we apologize for the barbaric beheadings of human beings?

If not beheadings, will we apologize for the rape and murder of thousands of innocent people in Darfour?

If not Darfour, will we apologize for the blowing up of two Russian planes by Muslim women?

What will we apologize for?

What will it take for Muslims to realize that those who commit mass murder in the name of Islam are not just a few fringe elements?

What will it take for Muslims to realize that we are facing a crisis that is more deadly than the Aids epidemic?

What will it take for Muslims to realize that there is a large evil movement that is turning what was a peaceful religion into a cult?

Will Muslims wake up before it is too late? Or will we continue blaming the Jews and an imaginary Jewish conspiracy? The blaming of all Muslim problems on Jews is a cancer that is destroying Muslim society from within and it must stop.

Muslims must look inward and put a stop to many of our religious leaders who spend most of their sermons teaching hatred, intolerance and violent jihad. We should not be afraid to admit that as Muslims we have a problem with violent extremism. We should not be afraid to admit that so many of our religious leaders belong behind bars and not behind a pulpit.

Only moderate Muslims can challenge and defeat extremist Muslims. We can no longer afford to be silent. If we remain silent to the extremism within our community then we should not expect anyone to listen to us when we complain of stereotyping and discrimination by non-Muslims; we should not be surprised when the world treats all of us as terrorists; we should not be surprised when we are profiled at airports.

Simply put, not only do Muslims need to join the war against terror, we need to take the lead in this war.

As to apologizing, we will no longer wait for our religious leaders and “intellectuals” to do the right thing. Instead, we will start by apologizing for 9-11.

We are so sorry that 3000 people were murdered in our name. We will never forget the sight of people jumping from two of the highest buildings in the world hoping against hope that if they moved their arms fast enough that they may fly and survive a certain death from burning.

We are sorry for blaming 9-11 on a Jewish or right wing conspiracy.

We are so sorry for the murder of more than three hundred school children and adults in Russia.

We are so sorry for the murder of train passengers in Spain.

We are so sorry for all the victims of suicide bombings. We are so sorry for the beheadings, abductions, rapes, violent Jihad and all the atrocities committed by Muslims around the world.

We are so sorry for a religious education that raised killers rather than train people to do good in the world. We are sorry that we did not take the time to teach our children tolerance and respect for other people.

We are so sorry for not rising up against the dictators who have ruled the Muslim world for decades.

We are so sorry for allowing corruption to spread so fast and so deep in the Muslim world that many of our youth lost hope.

We are so sorry for allowing our religious leaders to relegate women to the status of forth class citizens at best and sub-humans at worse.

We are so sorry.

Well, it's a start but I won't hold my breath for the Catholic apology for actions that are 1000 X worse.  

I didn't know the Russian school attack was Muslin related.  Maybe the letter is from Jewish organization.  Dam Jesus killers!  :rofl:

Ya the same people who go as far to say that Islam is a violent and evil religion........forget that Christians and Cathloics have done their fair share of terrible things thru-out history.

Really people just have to meet in the middle.  The Muslims need to understand that there are plenty of people who twist around the qu'ran to fit their movement or whatever you want to call it and non-Muslims need to realize that Islam in fact is a peaceful and very good (at least IMO) religion.  Funny thing is the 3 major religions are so close to one another its amazing how much people go at the throats of people from the other 2.

ZZZZZZZZZZZ . . . -_-  

same old  :cry: from WoW about the Catholics. Get over it.

Maybe when you die and go to heaven you can visit hell and kick Richard the Lionheart in the groin and stomp a few Zapotec persecuters and get this out of your system.

EVERY religion (well . . . most religions) has good, virtuous teachings. Unfortunately, the people who practice those religions are people, and they screw up a whole hell of a lot. There are A LOT of people in the Catholic church who are good, generous, faithful people who try to do right with their lives. Should they apologize for what some psycho Inquisitor or lusty Crusader did? Now if the Church were to say, "uh . . . sorry about the Inquisition, the Crusades and the murder of millions in the Americas" that wouldn't be a nice gesture. But do we really think that Pope John Paul II (a very good man, IMO) bears responsibility for the past?

I don't expect an apology from moderate Muslims. I see them bearing ZERO responsibility. I think it's a nice gesture, and I believe they can be a great force for good, but they didn't do these things, and they can't be held accountable for the sins of their fathers.

P.S. Chechnya is a predominantly Muslim state. The Chechnyan rebel group is a Muslim group. It's an ethnic conflict much like what happened in what used to be Yugoslavia. Most of the terrorists were Muslims of Caucasian descent, but reports say that ten of the terrorists killed in the raid were of Arabic descent.

Geez WoW :rolleyes: , for all of your  :fire: about current events, one would think you'd pick up a newspaper once in a while.  :ding:

No kidding.  Just like the victims of Johny 2s organized pedophillia should just "get over it."

Good point. I'll backtrack a bit. If the Pope knew and did nothing about the pedophile preists, then string him up.
