Muslims frequently condemn terrorism

In his letter dated July 11th, Mr. Craig Meyer states he has never heard Muslims denouncing terrorism.

There is actually widespread and frequent condemnation of terrorism by Muslims worldwide.

Perhaps it doesn't get the prominence in the mainstream American media as it should, but there is no shortage of Muslims speaking out against those who seek to hijack Islam with their message of hate and violence.

I would urge Mr. Meyer and other readers to simply search for the following phrase in Google: "Muslims denounce terrorism."

My broader concern is that Mr. Meyer's assertion can encourage a way of thinking that makes Muslims guilty by association unless they actively and vocally denounce terrorism.
