The grim truth is, for me to be safe, I have to outlive a generation of young minds who are polluted, whose minds are contaminated with this ideology.
I agree with President Bush, I agree with President Obama and with all the leaders of the civilized world that we are not at war with Islam. But within Islam is a radical movement that has declared war on us.
It's time that Muslims take to the streets in large numbers to show the same solidarity for the freedom of expression.
