Islamic Awakening Quotes
The Caliph in the past was the religious and secular leader of all Muslims. Many of the fundamentalist terrorists have as their objective, the reestablishment of the Caliphate which will unite all Islamic countries under one leader who is both the secular and religious supreme authority—a religious and a civil dictatorship. Most Muslims, like most people of all religions, are not terrorists and believe that much of terrorist activity violates many basic tenets of Islam. However, in order to function, the terrorist must have the tacit support of sufficient numbers of people so that they can function without being exposed. That is an important objective for Al-Qaeda: to enlist sufficient numbers of ordinary people who although they will not commit the terrorist acts, will support the objectives of the terrorists and provide money, shelter, and other services.
