Sept. 11 Attack Was Evil
By: Sohail Husain

As a Muslim American belonging to the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, I completely agree with President Obama that the now deceased Osama bin Laden was in no way a representative of Islam.

Bin Laden's plot to kill a maximum number of innocent civilians during 9/11 was evil. He hijacked more than just a few planes, but also the entire religion of a billion Muslims. His name will remain in ignominy because he used the guise of holiness to spread anarchy, whereas I believe Islam instructs us to be loyal citizens of our country.  The world will be a safer place, though not only when the world can apprehend mass murderers, but also when the peaceful voice of Islam can prevent radical ideologies from taking root in the first place.

Thus our work continues even after bin Laden.
