A Muslim Who Gets It
May 25, 2007 | filed in: Radical
Islam
Dr. Tawfik Hamid used to be a member of Jemaah
Islamiya, an Islamist terrorist group, and is now a
medical doctor and Muslim reformer living in the
West. I read an article about him some time ago, then
saw him on TV, and was heartened by his attitude
toward radical Islam.
Here's a Muslim who gets it. He's not afraid to condemn the violence in the name of Islam, and he sees clearly the problems that Muslims themselves must own up to and face. He wrote an opinion piece for today's Wall Street Journal. I highly recommend it. If the majority of Muslims would adopt his attitude and embrace his solutions, Islamofascism would wither away.
