[quote]He also said that Muslims must start the debate against ISIL. Someone with a Muslim voice and an Arab face.[/quote] Exactly. My only question is; where are all the moderate Muslims who don't agree with ISIS/ISIL? Their voice should be the loudest. This is a Muslim problem and the Muslim population should be the ones at the forefront fixing it. This is an ideological battle. We could go to Syria and wipe out countless extremist groups for another decade and nothing will change permanently. There are problems with the ideology that need to be addressed by the believers of the ideology if we want a long lasting solution.

  • You make a good point, their voice SHOULD be the loudest. Just because we're not hearing it, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The western media just doesn't give it attention. Arabic media does, however. Just Google "Muslims speak out against ISIS". ( sorry, too tired to post links up.) PM me if you're still interested.

She was speaking with Huffington Post Editor-In-Chief Arianna Huffington as a part of The WorldPost Future of Work Conference. If you can read only one article, make it this one below. It gives you a good sense of just how Muslims view ISIS, and an explanation of why we don't hear about it on the news: short of it is because of ratings, news is driven by ratings, and shows bloodshed and arguments. http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2015/11/16/muslims-hate-isis-most-of-all.html
