Obama's message to Islamic Clergy

In his Presidential Inaugural address, Obama called upon the Islamic leaders and clergy to address the issue of Islamic terrorism. He without mincing words, said: "People will remember you for what you buils, and not for what you destroy". That I believe sums up the entire debate! The frustation, anger and feelings of marginalization may be there in the youth of other cultures and religion too, but that does not mean that you pick up bombs and kill people and destroy buildings!
Instead of alienating the troubled mind, engage them in dialogue! For sure! If that seems to be the approach of Mr. Obama, there may still be a hope!
