Here are words that I never thought would come from me: "Bravo, Bill Maher!"
Last night on Jimmy Kimmel's show, TV comedian Bill Maher started talking about the attack in Paris on Charlie Hebdo magazine's staff. Maher is an extreme liberal who says many things that I find appalling. Nevertheless, while speaking to Kimmel, Maher pointed out that the terror attack by Islamic crazies in Paris cannot be sugar coated to avoid insulting Moslems or Islam. The truth is that the attack is an outgrowth of one part of mainstream Islam. Sure, not all Moslems support these sorts of attacks, but, as Maher said, there are hundreds of millions of Moslems who do. These terrorists have one overarching characteristic and that is that they are Moslems. The sooner we all recognize this fact and stop trying to hide or avoid it, the better it will be for the world.
