Islam & Islamism

"It's a mistake to blame Islam, a religion 14 centuries old, for the evil that should be ascribed to militant Islam, a totalitarian ideology less than a century old. Militant Islam is the problem, but moderate Islam is the solution."

These are the words of Daniel Pipes who is the son of Richard Pipes who wrote this quite insightful article in the latest Harvard Magazine. It is always hepful to know thine enemy.
