You're right. Without an operable definition of what "radical Islam" is you can't speak about what to do about it, which is where the OP pretty clearly really wants to go, so I've been drawing trying to draw the distinction legally. I completely agree with your assessment.

I'd define it as anyone willing to resort to terrorist violence or subjugation.

Fair enough. Would you then agree that Muslims, even the ultra orthodox, who don't practice violence aren't anything that we need concern ourselves with? You've seemed to suggest otherwise - and if I've misunderstood your position I apologize in advance.

I dont agree because many "orthodox" are fundamentalist. Its the "orthodox" who are splashing chemicals in peoples faces. We dont need to speculate on the numbers, see the pew polls.

Splashing chemicals in people's faces is against the law. Let's differentiate between people who are and aren't breaking the law.

Shooting down people who draw cartoons, jewish store employees, muslim cops, and 3000 innocent Americans (RIP) is also illegal. Tell me more about the law, I'd love to hear it.
