Where's your evidence that Hend holds the beliefs you ascribe to him?

And I lay much of it at the hands of passive Muslims like you, Hend. You need to despise them as much as everybody else does...and wishing the families of the slaughtered some peace is a day late and a dollar short.

Is it "passive" for him to speak out as he did and do you have any evidence that his activism is restricted to posts to online articles?
Do you know with any degree of certainty that he doesn't despise with every fiber of his being the terrorists who use his religion as the excuse and the rationale for their inhuman actions?

If headcase Christians were beheading people and walking into public places and slaughtering innocent human beings while screaming "Jesus is Lord!!!", I suspect the reaction from decent Christians all over this country would be considerably more intense and critical of the twisting of their religion than the half-assed comments we've been getting out of the worldwide mainstream Muslim community for the past half-century.

Perhaps but I doubt that they would condemn and repudiate their religion as the ultimate source and inspiration for their actions. They would say, correctly, that their behavior was reprehensible and emphatically un-Christian.

These three guys were in tears over the loss of Dr. King, and then... they apologized to her for the behavior in their community, and for her being so terrified.

The implication in the above is that no Muslim would behave or feel as these three presumably Christian blacks did. You have no rational basis upon which to base this.
I was about a week and a half shy of discharge when Dr. King was murdered. I was stationed at Ft. Myer, Va and witnessed first hand and in "real time" the riots in DC and in Baltimore. I saw good and bad on both sides.
