Why does the majority of Muslims keep silent on Islamic terrorism?

For more than ten years, with my friend, an American lawyer of Arab-Palestinian origin, I established an American charitable organization,

"Coalition of free Muslims against terrorism"

We were able to gather a limited number of Muslim and non-Muslim members as well. I was elected by a Board of Directors to be the Chairman of the Assembly. My partner was chosen for the post of President and the Assembly. Unfortunately, its activities are very limited because of the lack of Muslims joining us and also the lack of funding. Arab in Washington tried to help us financially but we refused to receive any funding from any Arab government or non-Arab).

Despite the low turnout among Muslims living in America, we decided to continue trying to play our role as Muslims in the fight against terrorism because we believe that only Muslims can overcome terrorism, because terrorism if lost in the Islamic street will fall automatically as terrorist organizations Many in the world, such as the Red Brigades in Italy, Bader Mannhof in Germany, the Irish Red Army in Ireland and the Japanese Salvation Army, all fell from within because they lost their cause, lost the street, lost their supporters and supporters. The Islamic terrorist organizations, because they are popular and present in the street, have attracted and mobilized the devotees and are still enjoying millions of supporters in secret and openly (of course you remember how drinking and sweets were distributed in public and in some Arab capitals and cities in celebration of a crime) September 11 in New York).

...

And I always wonder why thousands come out in mass demonstrations in Islamic cities and others to protest caricatures in which there is a mockery of Islam and ten people come out to protest terrorist acts that occur daily in the name of Islam ??? Who is the most insulting to Islam Caricature or suicide bombing in the mosque on Friday prayers? Who would be more insulting to Islam than a normal writer like Salman Rushdie or a terrorist organization? Who harms Islam more cartoon and writing a novel and a film or murder, burning, slaughter and daily destruction of Muslims themselves before others ???

...

For a few years now, I and the colleagues of the FMCAT have decided to hold a demonstration in Washington condemning Islamic terrorism and to show that Muslims are not terrorists. We have already taken a permit from the police and traffic to hold the demonstration and we have located a place in Freedom Square in Washington DC. A symbolic choice to make it clear that we believe in freedom like us, like other American citizens. We invited many media outlets, including local and international television stations. We also invited a number of journalists to cover the event. At the same time, we invited many Arab organizations, Yeh in America to join us in the demonstration.

The demonstration was a scandal in Jaljal, where the number of journalists and media figures who came to cover the demonstration was greater than the number of Muslim demonstrators. And I remember that one of the announcers of the US stations recently took a short journalist with me and in the end she asked me a very important question (especially when she saw the weak turnout of Muslims to participate in the demonstration) where she said: Do you think you are fighting a losing battle? My answer was as diplomatic as possible: I said: Despite the low turnout, Muslims in the vast majority do not support terrorism and we will continue to resist terrorism.

(And of course Al-Jazeera did not hide its weakness in the weakness of the Muslim response to the demonstration in a short news short).

...

After I gave the announcer this statement, I always wondered between myself and myself: Was what I said to the American television broadcaster was true or accurate? Is it true that the vast majority of Muslims do not support terrorism?

I remember about 15 years ago that I was in Egypt and we watched television with some family members living in Egypt. We watched on TV a news story about the destruction of an Israeli bus in Tel Aviv and we saw the bodies of children and civilians and blood on the ground. Despite this inhuman aspect, Some of the children in the family dance to this scene, even those who did not dance could not hide their joy, and did not show resentment of this view only the slave to God and another young man of the family was living in Canada and attended to spend his vacation in Egypt (I did not see him after this situation) !!

...

"Are we fighting a losing cause?" If the answer is no, why do we explain the lack of Muslim revolution and their demonstration against Islamic terrorism, and who reap the lives of Muslims before others?

A reader might say that Muslims are lazy by nature and that they are not positive. If it's true what you say, my friend, why do they take hundreds of thousands of demonstrations denouncing cartoons across the Islamic country, sometimes killing many during demonstrations and not demonstrating against terrorism?

To this day, I have not seen a single Islamic demonstration denouncing the terrorist acts of Da'qash, Bukhu Haram and Al-Qaeda, the Somali youth, the Taliban and other terrorist organizations.

The defeat of terrorism will not be achieved by security means only, by aircraft, Apache or even by ground forces. From the history of guerrilla warfare in modern times, no regular army, no matter how powerful, could outperform the militias. In Vietnam, the Viet Cong forces defeated the US military with all its might In Afghanistan, the Taliban are still in control of significant parts of Afghanistan, despite the presence of US forces there for more than 13 years. Not only that, but the Taliban opened another branch in Pakistan, and the invincible army failed to defeat Hamas in Gaza, despite all the destruction
