Are there any moderates or atheists in the Arab World? When I was in US PeaceNOW we were frustrated by the lack of moderates among the Palestinians. Bennie Morris has written extensively about this with the Left experiencing the same problem in Israel. Without a liberal partner, the fence makes even more sense. I'm being disingenuous because I know some moderate Muslims, but the movement is now away from the liberal current that was once appealing to a substantial segment. Muslims must recognize that we have a common enemy and it is the fundamentalist, cult-like Islamicist.
