Dr. Zuhdi Jasser is an Arizona physician and prominent voice for Muslims who reject terrorism in the name of Islam. He is hopeful because Americans are becoming knowledgeable about the radical Islamists who pose the true threat around the world. When asked how he would frame the debate about radical Islam for Americans, Jasser counted off four key elements. Watch to see what he means.
GWOT
Terrorism
Strategy
ISIS
Islam

Oh, how I PRAY this could become reality.
I know that there is no such thing as "impossible" with God. We should all pray that it's His Will and we should stand behind those who stand up to violence and slaughter in the name of their god.

devil try use everything where are door there does abuse of heart and mind, ours minds or theirs, in this case we must to be like revelation who is like God - people who do true love and peace and defend life, problem is that where is devil stronger we see that can kill love or destroy lives and do slavery and abuse hearts, bodies, countries, societies, religions. We have not whole army which is so mature to be with God for best treating our world, but I pray doesn't matter that we are not perfect

Yes there are.
BUT, and it's a BIG but, it is against Islamic teaching to publicly contradict and condemn other Muslims unless they besmirch Islam.

LTC Thomas Tennant Here is your link. I saw this, this morning and I think doesn't offer a lot in understanding how to add to strategy. What he provides himself is a superficial list while talking about how the candidates only address the issue superficially. he does not address how Muslims can reject extremism, when he says we need to recognize there is a existential threat (we know this), he says there is a difference between Muslims and Islamist (we know this), He's failing to inform that all Islamist believe they are Muslims and by definition of the word Muslim (believer) (all Islamist are Muslims but not all Muslims are Islamist), and he says that we should not be going after terrorist groups but instead Islamists. This aids his own personal agenda, "A Battle for the Soul of Islam: An American Muslim Patriot’s Fight to Save His Faith" He says the world is not a safer place with out America in it, (we know this), he says Russia or Iran or anyone who hates freedom and liberty...will fill vacuums that are left (we know this). Listen closely to his words, he says "Americans" instead of "we" "Americans will eventually get this right" but when he talks about "Muslims" he says "we" and "our". I know there are Muslims who do stand up and there are Imam's that do preach about being moderate and avoiding extremism, and there are Imam's in Iraq that have been put to death for their refusal to help ISIL recruit.

4 Ways This American Muslim Frames Terrorism Debate

I am not familiar with any organizations, however I do remember my time living in Las Vegas, there was two well known Mosques, one bigger one smaller. I attended the smaller one. I recall one Friday, the governor arrived and told us that we were part of the community. To add to this, the Immam also preached that we are all Muslims as well as Americans and we should try to blend culture and understand, not just be part of our little community. We did a lot of community service as well.
The other mosque, (the bigger one) was a little more questionable in their teachings. They taught everyone that we are Muslims first and we are only here to earn a living and we are told to reject the American way. I attended that mosque for reasons (use your imagination). It was not a very friendly mosque I felt, and what was worse is that it was also an elementary school for Muslim kids.
I am not one to judge culture and religion, however looking at this from the center, whatever religion one is from, they should somehow try to integrate with the culture of the country they are living in.

I'm not familiar with this in any way. when it comes to religion I take the Bernie Sanders approach. you will rarely see him mention his religion or draw attention to it, not because he is ashamed or attempting to hide from it in anyway. At the end of the day he is secular without discounting religion.
