Don’t jump to any conclusions, but almost 25% of the Muslims in America ages 18 through 29 believe that suicide bombings can be justified (Pew).

FBI: 10% of U.S. Mosques Preach Jihad.

Ron Kessler, NewsMax:

Imams preach jihad and extremism in 10 percent of the 2,000 mosques in the United States, the FBI estimates.

That sums up the problem facing us as we ponder the meaning of Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan’s slayings of 13 people at Fort Hood, Texas. Given his association with a pro-al-Qaida imam in northern Virginia and his preoccupation with radical Islamic Web sites, it’s clear that the radical element of Islam influenced Hasan.

There are problems in the Muslim community and they are aware of it.

Kessler continues:

At one meeting, a Muslim group suggested having a photo taken of its members with FBI Director Robert Mueller to show their community isn’t a bunch of terrorists and that they are partners in the war on terror.

An agent replied, “Let me make a suggestion: When you bring to my attention real extremists who are here to plan and do something, who are here supporting terrorism, and I work that based on your information, then I promise you, I will have the director stand up on the stage with you.”

To the agent’s amazement, the answer was: “That could never happen. We would lose our constituency. We could never admit to bringing someone to the FBI.”

“Well, we’ve just defined the problem, haven’t we?” the agent told them.

The problem might be defined for the FBI, the imams involved and most of the American people. But for this White House and a large part of the Mouthpiece Media thus far, they have defined the problem of the Ft. Hood shooter, Maj. Hasan, as “stress” or “harassment”.

They have already jumped to a conclusion. It would be a wrong one.
