Now let's make two things clear: isil is not 'islamic.' no religion condones the killing of innocents, and the vast majority of isil's victims have been muslim. and isil is certainly not a state. it was formerly al qaeda's affiliate in iraq, and has taken advantage of sectarian strife and syria's civil war to gain territory on both sides of the iraq-syrian border. it is recognized by no government, nor the people it subjugates. isil is a terrorist organization, pure and simple. and it has no vision other than the slaughter of all who stand in its way.

Non-violence and cowardice are contradictory terms. non-violence is the greatest virtue, cowardice the greatest vice. non-violence springs from love, cowardice from hate. non-violence always suffers, cowardice would always inflict suffering. perfect non-violence is the highest bravery. non-violent conduct is never demoralising; cowardice always is.

I look to islamic ethics to find something that can provide the basis for shared values with other traditions, and ultimately universal values. this ties into the point i made in a book, 'the quest for meaning', that the only way for values to be universal is if they are shared universal values. my main point is, in this quest for value the aim is not to express your distinctness from others, but about being able to contribute to the discussion of universal value.

Without courage, you cannot practice any other virtue. you have to have courage - courage of different kinds: first, intellectual courage, to sort out different values and make up your mind about which is the one which is right for you to follow. you have to have moral courage to stick up to that - no matter what comes in your way, no matter what the obstacle and the opposition is.
Practice Mind Intellectual
Countrymen, the task ahead is great indeed, and heavy is the responsibility; and yet it is a noble and glorious challenge - a challenge which calls for the courage to dream, the courage to believe, the courage to dare, the courage to do, the courage to envision, the courage to fight, the courage to work, the courage to achieve - to achieve the highest excellencies and the fullest greatness of man. dare we ask for more in life?
