This article was nicely written. While some people believe that Muslims are speaking out, others believe that Muslims are not. I think a lot of people's perceptions of Islamic reactions to these events has to do with bias. If you look for avoidance to comment then you will find it. If you look for condemnation of the acts, you will find it. If you keep yourself outta the loop, you'll simply be misinformed. But aren't all biased persons misinformed anyways?! People twist and turn and misinterpret hesitation and semantics to confirm their beliefs in the end.
