The intellectual founder of Islamism, Sayyid Qutb, wrote in 1957: "In the world there is only one party, the party of Allah; all of the others are parties of Satan and rebellion. Those who believe fight in the cause of Allah; and those who disbelieve fight in the cause of the rebellion."

Hi Felix. Yes I'm familiar with Qutb, the intellectual father of Bin Laden. He is far from representing all or even a majority of Muslims, let alone all the myriad religions of the world: most of whom would disagree with Qutb. Why should we who think Qutb is incorrect, be apportioned blame?
