"A previous speaker said that IS must be defeated militarily. Yes, but ideas cannot be defeated by military means alone. The root cause of the problem is an ideological one at the heart of the Islamic religion, and it can only be won by moderate Muslims overcoming the extremists. The first step in doing so is for moderate Muslims to reject those religious texts in the Qur’an that encourage or excuse violence. For example: ‘Kill infidels wherever you find them. Make war on infidels. Strike terror into the hearts of infidels’. Moderate Muslims know very well that in the eyes of the fundamentalist extremists they too qualify as ‘infidels’ as much as the unbelievers. The moderate Muslims of the world have a vested interest in bringing their religion into the modern world. The savages of IS will still be savages but their spurious ideological justifications for violence and bestiality must be removed. That can only be done when their fellow Muslims remove the ideological ground from under their feet."@en1
