Good reading over at MEMRI, go read it all but here’s the intro to tease you:

Dr. Ahmad Al-Baghdadi, a reformist Kuwaiti intellectual and political science lecturer at Kuwait University, argues that the Muslims themselves - not bin Laden - are responsible for the rising hatred against them around the world. He says that Muslims living in the West have failed to repay the kindness of the countries that accepted them, and instead have followed the lead of the Muslim clerics and threatened to attack these countries from within. He adds that Muslims in the West must declare that they accept Western values and sever their ties with Muslims in the East, and with the religious clerics. 

That pretty much sums it up quite well.  Without some sort of movement like this we are headed towards much larger conflict between our civilizations as terrorism continues and Western populations just get sick of the excuses.

Its one thing for something like that to be said from those outside the Islamic community, but it takes much more courage for someone inside the Islamic world to speak the unwelcome truth like that.  I wish Dr. Al-Baghdadi success in spreading his message.
