Please correct me if I'm wrong (I'm not completely up on my history), but if I recall correctly Rosa Parks and her fellow activists weren't inclined to strap on TNT and walk into a crowded cafe or bus, or fly airliners into a buildings.
Now, I'd actually be $2 that the two gentlemen in question aren't inclined do to so either. The problem being that there is precious little for the rest of the world to help us distinguish those Muslims who do advocate such acts from those who do not. The silence from within their community is deafening. As has been pointed out, the 9-11 hijackers were just ordinary people until that faithful day.
I'm not condoning or condemning the actions of the crew, but until the "vast majority of peaceful Muslims" stands up and denounces the other element and cleans their own house, then the problem is on their own heads.
Just my $ 0.02...
Hopefully I haven't stepped outside of the TOS...
