Wahid: stop appeasement


EX-PREMIER FIGHTS FOR MODERATE ISLAM -Ron Kampeas

Abdurrahman Wahid [pictured above], the former Indonesian president and a leading Muslim scholar, gained prominence for his insistence on introducing Muslim nations to certain truths about the Jews. He has called Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad a "liar" for denying the Holocaust.

Wahid says moderate Islam stands a greater chance of triumphing over Islamic radicalism once Western leaders stop trying to accommodate Islamic extremists.
