Trevor Blake: Ten Thousand
Ten thousand people marched through Oaxaca City to protest the APPO. Ten thousand people celebrated those who have left the Communist Party in Taiwan. Ten thousand people spelled out words with their bodies to support Falun Gong. Ten thousand people met to appreciate wind power.
Many of these links have pictures, to help you get a better idea of what ten thousand people look like. Now take that mental image and replace all those people with dead bodies. Ten thousand people have been killed by Muslims in the past six years. These men, women and children were not killed in self-defence, nor were they killed in the heat of the moment, nor were they killed for money, nor were they killed in war. Ten thousand people have been killed by Muslims in the past six years as human sacrifices, as part of the religion of Islam, as Muslims submitting to the invisible monster that lives in the sky.
Well over ten thousand Muslims rioted in the streets when a newspaper published drawings of Muhammad. When will we see ten thousand Muslims stand up and say that the killings done in their name have no place in the Twenty-First Century? There are glimmers of hope that Islam can become secular, as have Christianity and Judaism. See Irshad Manji and The Institution for the Secularization of Islamic Society. Learn more about Islam than most Muslims know, by reading the Quran and keeping up on what the religion of peace is doing in the real world.
