Here is an interesting article from the Middle East Online.

Mosque Furor Endangers US Troops

The message to the Islamic world couldn’t be clearer: Americans do see the ‘war on terror’ as a war against Islam, not just against a few violent extremists but against all Muslims including moderates who have risked their own lives to condemn Islamic radicalism, notes Robert Parry.

I hope everyone gets this message:

Even worse, the Americans most likely to pay for this political posturing are the US troops on the front lines. The Right and the neocons may profit at the polls but the price will be paid in blood, mostly by American soldiers and US allies in faraway places like Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iraq.
