Muslim community too silent on 9/11

On the 9/11 anniversary, I looked forward to statements of support from the moderate Muslim community in America and condemnation of their radical brothers who committed the evil acts on Sept. 11, 2001. But I heard none. So I went to the websites for the Muslim American Society, Council on American-Islamic Relations, and Islamic Society of North America. Again total silence.

The next time Muslims in America demand special treatment or demand that America change to accommodate them, don’t look for support from me. I will be busy remembering your silence on Sept. 11, 2013.
