While Muslim extremists have unleashed waves of terror tactics, often in retaliation to the hegemonic and aggressive policy pursuits of the Western capitals, elements within the liberal humanist camp (Sam Harris is just one out of the many more) have followed suit by clubbing all Muslims alike and equating acts of a fraction of the sidelined Muslim extremists as representative of the second largest religion of the world, notwithstanding peace being Islam's most essential message. The moderates are caught up midway in the apparently escalating crossfire between the religious and secular extremists. However, our minds remain focused: stand for the just and the truth, no matter what the left and the right is doing to discredit you and Islam through ill-digested notions and lopsided actions. The future of Islam and Muslims, in fact the world at large, hinges so much on the extent to which the moderate forces, from both the religious and the secular camps, exert their influence to carry the day against the extremist deviants, whether of religious identity of secular pretension!
