If 500,000 Moroccan Muslims can march against terror what makes you think only a few will to this?

Moroccans March to Oppose Terror
http://powerlineblog.com/archives/003458.php
A crowd estimated by Moroccan authorities at one-half million marched in Casablanca today to protest against terrorism. The Moroccan government sponsored the march, and that estimate is no doubt high; independent estimates were much lower. But there is no doubt that thousands of Moroccans participated. Some reports said that Muslim fundamentalist groups were absent from the demonstration; others said that some fundamentalists tried to join the march but were turned away. Whatever the size of the crowd may have been, it is good to see Muslims taking to the streets to denounce Islamofascist terror. The photo below shows some of the protesters.
I think so.I apologize for distrusting you, but I, along with many others, am so suspicious of Muslims that I need
to be sure before I can consider one of them to be a friend.
I do not fault myself for this, I blame your fellow Muslim majority, whose anti-Semitism and Anti-Americanism is well documented.
What percentage of Muslims do you think are well meaning and interested in living in peace with Israel?
I have no idea, but it depends on the ethnicity, country, etc. Iranians and Israelis have been traditional friends because of Arab aggression against both - less about religion than about ethnicity. Plus, both the President and Defense Minister of Israel are from Iran.
The Torah, in Genesis, lays out the role for the descendents of Ismael. It is not flattering. The question is does that include Persians? I don't know.
Do you honestly take yourself seriously?
This is the biggest joke i've ever seen in my life. Good luck in your escapade against the evil conquering Muslims who want you dead, while you're at it be sure to fight off Darth Vadar from Star Wars and Gargamel from the Smurfs who happen to have a pact with other Evil Muslims, I the evil American Muslim, oh yeah I forgot I can't be an American and Muslim according to you.
No. Iranians are Indo-Europeans not from the Semite/Arabic family of Ishmael.
I am Jewish, and I am fully aware that many muslims see me as their enemy. Nevertheless, if any individual shows me he or she means me no harm, I am willing to give them a chance.
But fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.
What about the Mullahs who've taken over the country for the past 25 years, thanks to our eminent Nobel prize winner.
Are they also Indo/European?
Persians are not Arabs! You beat me to it...
To claim that Islam has the gambit on violent means negates a working knowledge of the Bible and the Torah.
Read Joel lately?
"There is no moral equivalence there, my friend."
There is no moral equivalence between murder and slavery? Or between oppression of thought and flesh and it's ratings with some of the actions taken by the Catholics in days past?
"But that is very different from the consistent and overwhelming bloodthirsty march of Islam against human civilization by those who faithfully adhered to its central core of primitive, pedophillic, oppressive, misogynistic, murderous terroristic principles."
I don't recall reading about Persia being "primitive" or "pedophillic" (in fact, they punished such deeds) Yet many of it's people were muslims. Is it possible that indoctrined beliefs are the root of the evil behaviour?
I say that all philosophies have their black spots. (Should we abandon biology simply because Hitler used the teachings of evolution to excuse his capaign?) And in the midsts of whats going on, of course we have the idea that Islam is out to get us. But why was Iran our ally for so long if that is the case?
It's the demented heads of Islamic states that need to be brought before God, not the faithful civilians.
Think of this- Every time our boys ahve gone in to a city filled with terrorists and "insurgents" (nice word for "the enemy") there have been civilians who meant NO HARM to our boys. They even cheered them on as they rolled in.
If Islam is so evil, why are those we are hunting the minority? ( av erypowerful and prominant minority, yes... but still on the lower end of the numbers)
