Radical Islam is indeed our enemy (Letter to the Editor, CAIR calls this an "Incitement Watch")
Providence Journal ^ | November 28, 2004

This nation is at war with radical Islam. Our brave soldiers are carrying this fight to the enemy in Iraq. Radical Muslims are said to number about 100 million worldwide (10 percent of the total Muslim population), though I believe the number could be much larger.

The "religion of peace" calls for the death of all infidels (that is, you and me) and the Koran tells us that it is permissible for any Muslim to lie to the infidels. This should be our framework as we analyze the Nov. 23 Commentary piece written by Sheikh Abu Hakim Abdullah ("Bush must stop seeming to war on Islam").

First, I wonder if this Muslim remembers the events of Sept. 11? I have never heard a word from this sheikh, or any other Islamic cleric, denouncing this act, but I am sure that he has his own "lies and hearsay," spinning 9/11 away from Islam. He states that al-Qaida was not in Iraq. Does he believe that Al-Qaida was operating in almost every Western nation and in many of our states, but not in Iraq?

President Bush is correct in the belief that if basic human freedoms are guaranteed to all, and that if suffrage is granted to all genders of majority age, then it could be assumed that a climate would exist for people to live in peace, raise their children and prosper in their pursuits of property and happiness in consort with their neighbors. This is the only path for peace to embrace the Middle East.

If Islam, radical and non-radical, cannot accept this form of society, then Islam must reform. This Muslim states that he and other Muslims see Bush's actions as an "invasion to control and/or destroy Islam as they know and understand it." If the form of Islam they know and understand includes beheadings, suicide bombers and terrorism, he is right. Islam must reform and enter the 21st Century. If reform can only come at the point of a sword, then we will supply the sword.

I am one of many who cannot view any Muslim in the same light as prior to 9/11. I will be forever vigilant in scrutinizing any and every Muslim with whom I come in contact. This sheikh proves the point that we have within our midst a fifth column of those wishing us harm and death. They are working to change us and not themselves in this cultural war being waged throughout the world.

I couldn't find the Nov. 23 article that the author refers to on the Providence Journal site. Speaking of incitement, still nothing on the CAIR site denouncing the Van Gogh murder in Amsterdam.

Prophet of Doom - Islam’s Terrorist Dogma, In Muhammad’s Own Words


Islam is a caustic blend of regurgitated paganism and twisted Bible stories.
Muhammad, its lone prophet, conceived his religion solely to satiate his lust for power, sex, and money.
He was a terrorist.

And if you think these conclusions are shocking, wait until you see the evidence at www.prophetofdoom.net.
