And above we have an example of an American heeding the words of
George W. Bush:
"I also want to speak tonight directly to Muslims throughout the
world. We respect your faith. It's practiced freely by many millions
of Americans, and by millions more in countries that America counts as
friends. Its teachings are good and peaceful, and those who commit
evil in the name of Allah blaspheme the name of Allah."
