Let me start this way: your post, Mojo, unlike the OP, is not offensive.

That's not at all true. Several of the people I quoted earlier are among the highest political and religious leaders of the (non-Western) Muslim world. Qaradawi in particular is one of the biggest names in Islamic jurisprudence right now.

A great many of us speak up.

I would agree that we need to do more. But to say that the Muslim majority is silent is entirely baseless.
