アメリカはイスラムと戦っているのではない。
我々の敵は宗教ではなく、テロリストだ。
大統領はこう演説したと、深夜のニュースは短く伝えました。
思わず「名セリフ!」と膝をうちましたが・・・これは要約のようです。
They may seek to spark conflict between different faiths, but as
Americans we are not — and never will be — at war with Islam.
It was not a religion that attacked us that September day
— it was al-Qaida, a sorry band of men which perverts religion.
And just as we condemn intolerance and extremism abroad,
so will we stay true to our traditions here at home as a diverse
and tolerant nation. We champion the rights of every American,
including the right to worship as one chooses — as service members
and civilians from many faiths do just steps from here, at the very spot
where the terrorists struck this building.
この「要約」をしたのは、通信社か報道部の記者かわかりませんが。
なかなかの「名訳(約)」と思います。
