Jim Lieb, after 250 years of whites enslaving blacks, 100 years of Jim Crow laws enforced by the KKK, and still more decades of white cops shooting blacks with impunity, is it reasonable to discuss widespread white racism, white terrorism, and the specific concerns of the Black Lives Matter movement? Just wondering...

Yes, Islamism -- the political perversion of Islam -- is a concern. But by far the vast majority of Muslims worldwide are just going about their daily business, trying to be good people like anybody else, and NOT supporting Islamist terrorism.

On the other hand, there certainly ARE elements in Islam -- in Muslim theology or doctrine -- that need careful examination by Muslims, and in some cases repudiation and reform. You're right that SOMETHING in Islam is contributing to the rise of Islamist terrorism, and Muslims who want to live in peace with the rest of the world need to examine what that is and fix it.

But it's not like Christianity has never been used similarly.
