To demonstrate that it is wrong to associate Islam with terrorism, the OIC might begin to compile statistics on the religious affiliations of those who engage in terrorism. By contrast, suppressing the freedom of speech of Islam’s critics merely gives rise to the suspicion that evidence and sound argument cannot show their arguments to be mistaken.
为证明把伊斯兰教与恐怖主义联系在一起的看法有误，伊斯兰会议组织或许可以搜集参与恐怖活动者宗教信仰的统计数据。压制伊斯兰教批评者言论自由的做法恰恰使人们心生疑虑，怀疑证据和可靠的论据无法证明公众的说法有误。
