Terrorism
The
Free
Muslims
Coalition
believes
that
there
can
NEVER
be
a
justification
for
terrorism.
The
Coalition
believes
that
terror
represents
one
of
the
most
lethal
threats
to
the
stability
of
the
civilized
world.
The
existence
of
terrorists
is
the
existence
of
threats
to
democracy.
There
is
no
room
for
terrorism
in
the
modern
world.
Among
Islamic
scholars,
the
concept
of
jihad
ranges
in
definition
from
the
personal
struggle
against
temptation
to
holy
war.
All
calls
for
jihad
to
create
an
Islamic
state
should
be
rejected
as
heretic
and
a
threat
to
modern
society.
Extremists
have
quelled
criticism
against
them
from
peaceful
Muslims
by
adopting
popular
Muslim
and
Arab
causes.
A
case
in
point
is
the
adoption
of
the
Palestinian
cause.
The
issue
of
Palestine
and
the
suffering
of
the
Palestinians
is
the
single
most
important
issue
that
unites
the
entire
Muslim
and
Arab
world.
No
issue
evokes
the
passion
of
Muslims
and
Arabs
as
much
as
the
Palestinian-Israeli
conflict.
The
Palestinian-Israeli
conflict
is
so
important
to
Arabs
and
Muslims
that
every
extremist
group
from
Morocco
to
Indonesia
that
seeks
legitimacy
and
a
following,
places
the
"liberation"
of
Palestine
at
the
forefront
of
their
agenda.
For
example,
recall
that
Saddam
Hussein
responded
to
the
world's
request
that
he
leave
Kuwait
by
insisting
that
Israel
first
evacuate
the
West
Bank
and
Gaza.
Osama
Bin
Laden
also
invoked
the
Palestinian
issue
to
justify
9-11.
Iran
has
made
the
Palestinian
issue
its
most
important
foreign
policy
priority
since
the
Islamic
Revolution
of
1979.
The
clever
adoption
of
the
Palestinian
cause
has
made
it
difficult
for
Muslims
to
attack
terrorist
organizations.
This
is
why
it
is
essential
that
the
world
unite
to
end
the
suffering
of
the
Palestinians
at
the
hands
of
Israel.
The
Coalition
will
seek
to
raise
the
peaceful
voices
of
Muslims
world
wide.
The
terrorist
and
extremist
Muslims
will
no
longer
go
unchallenged.
Their
days
of
sympathetic
leaching
off
the
Muslim
community
are
numbered.
