Slaughtering the Innocent

Christians are certainly not the only targets of jihadi maniacs. Today, those who butcher in the name of Islam abducted three hundred Kurds. These Kurds were not fighters, but they will likely suffer the same fate as if they were. It is long past time that those who oppose the nihilism that is aggressive Wahhabism band together to defeat it. If the majority of Muslims, both Sunni and Shia, who would never shed the blood of peaceful people of any faith would oppose, condemn, and fight the fanatics, the fanatics could not win. If the Christians and Jews under threat from the fanatics would join with the vast majority of Muslims who respect innocent life, the Islamic State, Boko Haram, al-Qaeda, and al-Shabab would not stand a chance. The problem is though that until those who respect innocent life stand up en-masse, there will always be fanatics around to murder the few who dare to oppose them.
