Rafal,
If you will find a Moslem site in English you will find that many
never ever say a good word for us. And yes they express all the negative
views that were listed on this thread. I remember after the loss of
Afghanistan how they demeaned us for having the most cowardly army in the
world -- our soldiers did not stand up and fight in the open but fired from
cover. There is a strong presence of Al Qaida or their sympathizers on those
sites and they make no secret of their goals or intentions. That includes
attacks on more moderate Moslems. The Sufi are especially singled out for
character assassination along with anyone that doesn't support immediately
grabbing a gun or other weapon to attack the west. I must add this: there
are some extremely brave Moslems in the world that are resisting the Al
Qaida. Don't forget that as many as the Al Qaida have harmed it is the
Moslems that suffered the most at their hands.
