Few westerners are au fait with the Islamic principle of taquiyya. This is a kind of situation ethics which permits Moslems to lie about their faith in order to save their lives.There is considerable evidence that extremist Moslems have extrapolated from this and will lie - or dissimulate if you prefer - for the greater good of Islam or to maintain the honour of Islam.
It reminds me of the Jehovah's Witnesses' tactic of 'running'.
Now you know.
