Letter: Muslims must ask questions

Friday, April 2, 2004 | 9:45 a.m.

These great warriors have no qualms about sending children and mothers to their deaths for the cause, but they themselves hide underground so that the Israelis can't find them.

Locking children up for hours, beating women, and trying to use bribery where all else fails shows the low level of the leaders of these terrorist groups. If their God (Allah) is leading them down this treacherous path, then no child or woman of Islam is safe in this world.

I cannot believe that God wants children and women slaughtered. Maybe that's why one of the Ten Commandments is "Thou shalt not murder."

Maybe it is time for the Muslim people to wake up and ask why they are being forced to murder innocent people. Maybe it is time for the Muslim people to ask why their leaders are cowards.
