Another Banner Day for Islam

Well what can I say? More and more people were victimized by Muslim fundamentalists in Iraq today, including another American who was beheaded.
.
I just have a couple of questions: If Islam is supposedly the peaceful religion that some would debate that it is, then where is the outrage? Why aren't Muslims around the world taking to the streets and demonstrating against the evil that is going on in Iraq? Why is Al-Jazeera glorifying their bloody deeds, giving air time to the agents of Satan? Why is the battle cry being given out by the religious leadership?
.
It seems the Muslim world - as usual - is ominously silent. How sad. How very sad.
.
Why is it that the likes of Maqtada al-Sadr, Musab al-Zarqawi, and Osama bin Laden send their pawns to commit suicide and murder scores of innocent people in the process. Who gave these people that kind of authority? If they want to set an example, why don't they themselves volunteer for these suicide missions? Because they're cowards.
.
Why, if they're so proud of killing unarmed, bound, civilian hostages, do they cover their faces? Why not show themselves? Because they're cowards.
.
These cowards hide in schools, in hospitals, in mosques. The United States has been very careful not to target innocent people (although that proves difficult, if not impossible at times). We have been very careful to cause as little collateral damage as possible. Munition dumps cause a tremendous amount of collateral damage when hit - that's why we don't target Muslim holy sites.
