Western Muslims Must Criticize The Insurgents

   I just read about the 150 dead civilians in Iraq (the worst attack in
   Iraq ever). [1]I wrote a response at the Eteraz community directed to
   Muslims:

     The Sunni militants' version of "insurgency" and "freedomfighting"
     is non-sensicial; they want not to fight the "occupier" but to kill
     the occupied. It is the most heinous and disgusting form of
     "resistance" I have ever seen in my life, or read about. Their
     strategy is: if we murder enough Iraqi elders, women and children,
     then the Americans will leave. I beseech Western Muslims to take
     heed of this. I know you are anti-war, and I know you wish that
     Americans left Iraq, and I know you think Bush is a liar. I think
     all these things. But please, for God's sake, can you at least
     recognize, that the strategy of "resistance" being employed by the
     militants is barbaric.
