You didn't answer my question, should the columnists have NOT condemned him clearly and loudly, because no one would have assumed they approved? If they had not you bet they would be condemned them for being ambiguous.

But you keep changing the subject from women to terrorism, why is that? I am concerned with the erasing of women from public space, gender segregation, etc. THAT extremism. I want Muslim columnists to be clear on their views on women, not terrorism.
