What an extremely.. biased article. Ignorance of a religion's core and truth is no means to judge it by how it is portrayed by extremists.

I recently saw a report with Muhammad Hisham Kabbani of the Islamic Supreme Council of America. In Kabbani's reliable estimation, such "extremists" have "taken over 80 percent of the mosques" in the United States.

To ban a religion due to how various people practice it wrongly is rubbish. Christianity isn't seen as it should be banned because of the practices of the KKK's.

80%...

In truth, the same applies for all religions. All religions have both poles, then the grays inbetween.

Once again... 80%. Not much gray area there.

80% is an exaggeration, a guesstimate. It is most likely untrue. It is refering to the 'leaders' nonetheless, not the population itself.

The guesstimate came from Muhammad Hisham Kabbani of the Islamic Supreme Council of America.

And not just the mosques: schools, youth groups, community centers, political organizations, professional associations, and commercial enterprises also tend to share a militant outlook, hostile to the present non-militant Islamic society in this nation.

If you dealt with such organizations and youth group you would know better.

What, with Hamas and Hezbollah?
