I never said, that's what you do in Islam. I said "their own traditions". Meaning them, the extremists.

Please, don't try so hard to be offended.

EDIT: Nevermind, I just read your post too quickly. Yes of course you are right. But that is what gives them the authority to pursue these goals. Claim that it's tradition and BANG! you get your rights to do so, because god forbid (no pun intended) we cannot disallow people to follow their own traditions!
