Thanks for the ping. I'd seen that last night.

It was a professional presentation, and did show that although not all Muslims were equally supportive of what's come to be called extremism --- at the same time the support for violent intolerance among them is very widespread.

It's the liberals of America, the nearly braindead media who think they are the elites and know everything, the Democrats and the Rhinos who are the ones who need to begin paying better attention to what people like the Egyptian woman in the video have been trying to convey.

Most freepers already grasp what she is saying, perhaps too well.

There is left still the nagging question; How to deal with the high negatives on one side (the solid & widespread support for what in the end is extremism -- the word "extremism" unarguably an identifier of a characteristic of the problem) while not too much ignoring the other side --- like the life and dignity of the woman who it does appear is not part of the problem, but instead an opposite of that very [ahem, cough-cough] problem?

She's not alone by any means, even among those nominally Muslim, but she's certainly not among anything approaching clear majority (in nations Islamic) and some many would seek to kill her for being honest about Islam.
