The proposed 'cyber space raid' sounds like a sit-in or other unconventional means of participating in the process. If we (and by 'we' I mean 'us' *chuckle) simply decide what the world's answers are and implement them without an open, transparent process where all are involved, then we're just tyrannists. HOWEVER, cut and paste posts are somewhat intellectually dishonest (unethical), and I would think that each individual Muslim has more to bring to the table than simply regurgitating someone else's words.
