Muslim Group Apologizes for 9-11

[Mike AI]

We Are So Sorry for 9-11
This September 11 marks the third unforgettable anniversary of the worst mass murder in American history.

After September 11, many in the Muslim world chose denial and hallucination rather than face up to the sad fact that Muslims perpetrated the 9-11 terrorist acts and that we have an enormous problem with extremism and support for terrorism. Many Muslims, including religious leaders, and ?intellectuals? blamed 9-11 on a Jewish conspiracy and went as far as fabricating a tale that 4000 Jews did not show up for work in the World Trade Center on 9-11. Yet others blamed 9-11 on an American right wing conspiracy or the U.S. Government which allegedly wanted an excuse to invade Iraq and ?steal? Iraqi oil.


As to apologizing, we will no longer wait for our religious leaders and "intellectuals" to do the right thing. Instead, we will start by apologizing for 9-11 . . .



After numerous admissions of guilt by Bin Laden and numerous corroborating admissions by captured top level Al-Qaida operatives, we wonder, does the Muslim leadership have the dignity and courage to apologize for 9-11?
If not 9-11, will we apologize for the murder of school children in Russia?

If not Russia, will we apologize for the train bombings in Madrid, Spain?

If not Spain, will we apologize for suicide bombings in buses, restaurants and other public places?

If not suicide bombings, will we apologize for the barbaric beheadings of human beings?

If not beheadings, will we apologize for the rape and murder of thousands of innocent people in Darfour?

If not Darfour, will we apologize for the blowing up of two Russian planes by Muslim women?

What will we apologize for?

What will it take for Muslims to realize that those who commit mass murder in the name of Islam are not just a few fringe elements?

What will it take for Muslims to realize that we are facing a crisis that is more deadly than the Aids epidemic?

What will it take for Muslims to realize that there is a large evil movement that is turning what was a peaceful religion into a cult?

Will Muslims wake up before it is too late? Or will we continue blaming the Jews and an imaginary Jewish conspiracy? The blaming of all Muslim problems on Jews is a cancer that is destroying Muslim society from within and it must stop.

Muslims must look inward and put a stop to many of our religious leaders who spend most of their sermons teaching hatred, intolerance and violent jihad. We should not be afraid to admit that as Muslims we have a problem with violent extremism. We should not be afraid to admit that so many of our religious leaders belong behind bars and not behind a pulpit.

Only moderate Muslims can challenge and defeat extremist Muslims. We can no longer afford to be silent. If we remain silent to the extremism within our community then we should not expect anyone to listen to us when we complain of stereotyping and discrimination by non-Muslims; we should not be surprised when the world treats all of us as terrorists; we should not be surprised when we are profiled at airports.

Simply put, not only do Muslims need to join the war against terror, we need to take the lead in this war.

As to apologizing, we will no longer wait for our religious leaders and ?intellectuals? to do the right thing. Instead, we will start by apologizing for 9-11.

We are so sorry that 3000 people were murdered in our name. We will never forget the sight of people jumping from two of the highest buildings in the world hoping against hope that if they moved their arms fast enough that they may fly and survive a certain death from burning.

We are sorry for blaming 9-11 on a Jewish or right wing conspiracy.

We are so sorry for the murder of more than three hundred school children and adults in Russia.

We are so sorry for the murder of train passengers in Spain.

We are so sorry for all the victims of suicide bombings. We are so sorry for the beheadings, abductions, rapes, violent Jihad and all the atrocities committed by Muslims around the world.

We are so sorry for a religious education that raised killers rather than train people to do good in the world. We are sorry that we did not take the time to teach our children tolerance and respect for other people.

We are so sorry for not rising up against the dictators who have ruled the Muslim world for decades.

We are so sorry for allowing corruption to spread so fast and so deep in the Muslim world that many of our youth lost hope.

We are so sorry for allowing our religious leaders to relegate women to the status of forth class citizens at best and sub-humans at worse.

We are so sorry.

Why did you make two threads about this?

Why would they apologize, did they themselves do it?

I did hear about this the other day. Some Muslim groups are trying to stand up to the extremists. I think it was the Russian school children massacre that was the catalyst to do this.

The truth is there are many peaceful Muslims all over the world. But we hear little about them in our press because it doesn't sell well.

Yup, very true. They have a great culture, minus the extremists.

But I don't understand the connection between the school massacre in Russia with Muslims?

Well the Chechens are Muslims and at the beginning of their war they were trying to break away from Russia. So the Russians, as any country would, sent in troops to prevent them from breaking away. A brutal war ensued that ended up devastating Chechnya and most of its major cities. The people there have become extremely desperate and the Muslim extremist movement (Al-Qaeda, etc.) has taken advantage. They have sent militants into Chechnya to act as mercenaries and sponsors of terrorist acts.

These Muslim groups are looking at the bigger picture. Many terrorists are waving the flag of Islam as their motive. I think they would like to disassociate Islam and Muslims from these terrorists. Their religion is being highjacked, so to speak.

I think the idea of apoligzing is great, but I don't think its fair to generalize Muslims.

My step-father is Egyptian and Muslim, so is his family and his mother is very religious. My mom lives there now and has been living there for 10+ years. I have visited Egypt 4 times and spent months there. Here's a small twist, I'm a Jew as well, actually half Jewish. My dad is a Jew and my mom is Catholic, I was raised both. Anyway, Emad (step-father) has turned out to be one of the greatest men I've ever known. He took me in as his own son when I was young, and his mother loves me to pieces. Now if a Jew and a Muslim can love another, so can everyone else.

This apoligy is great and all, but there truly are a lot of Muslims that are incredible people.

My opinion, the good Muslims need to stand up to the other Muslims that are ok with rape, violence, murder, suicide, and all the other horrible things that are giving Muslims such a bad name. And the better do it soon before the whole world starts developing hate for all Muslims.

I don't hate Muslims at all, I hate terrorist monsters.
