CAIRO, Egypt - Muslims worldwide are the main
perpetrators of terrorism, a humiliating and painful
truth that must be acknowledged, a prominent Arab
writer and television executive wrote Saturday, as
Middle East media and officials expressed horror at
the bloody rebel siege of a Russian school. (more)

He's not the only one who things so according to this
article. The beginning of the end? Read all about it:

tvoivozhd---while this self-criticism would have got the authers killed a year back, there will be no perceptible reduction in Islamic guerrilla warfare for the foreseeable future. Arab society is like a giant ship travelling at thirty knots---even it you throw the rudder hard over (five degrees is more likely), it will take fifty years for any attempt to remake Arab society and Arab mores to have any degree of success Do not firget it is firmly locked a thousand years in the past by an Imam and Ayatollah dominated priesthood, most of which would rather move backwards rather than forwards. It is possible that the anti-cleric youth in Iran may overturn the old regime and be a model for change. Iraq could be a model if the Kurds were in charge, but with repressive Shiite factions exertting real power, that remains unlikely.
