On The Oft-Asked Question: 'Where Are Those Liberal Arab Muslims'?

Topics: Understanding Islam

So who or what are "liberal Arab Muslims"?

Nouri Lumendifi (via Anti-Jihad Pundit), author of The Moor Next Door, says they "support 'multiparty parliamentary democracy, human rights, women's rights, a more tolerant interpretation of Islam, rapprochement with the West, and peace with Israel'".

Lumendifi concludes that liberal Arab Muslims (I would add non-Arab liberal Muslims as well) are far out-numbered by Islamist organizations and sympathizers, and they face incredible odds (A frightening revelation, if true).
