"...displays of Islam’s violent intolerance have been coming thick and fast the last few decades, and can be found on every page of history going back to the 7th century, when Islam began its expansion with the blood of several hundred decapitated Jews."

It's late in the game people! Where do you think this is all headed? I for one think the days of appeasement are over. Prepare.

Many is the time I have spelled "believe" as "beleieve." I figure I can catch both sides of the "i before e" thingy.

So why take any chances on where the H goes?

So I'm "islamophobic" if I have a profound mistrust of some whiny @sshole with a rag on his head?

So what's your point?

Just like the old saw, "It's not paranoia if they really are out to get you," it's not islamophobia if they really are out to get us!

Sorry, but we are still in the days of appeasement. I don't what it will take - apparently thousands and thousands of dead, slaughtered, beheaded, murdered, just isn't convincing enough.

Great article BTW.

It is just politics. Nothing real in all that name calling.

If you think the port deal is wrong, you have every right to say so as loud as you want to. You would have to be insane not to be leery of Arab Muslims right now.

What the President's supporters are telling you is they were leery, too and they took percautions to ensure nothing bad would happen. Given what we have seen and know of Islam, you are just fine to disagree and should disagree if that is the way you see it.

I don't know what to think about it but it feels risky to me and at the same time, I can understand how they are trying to befriend the UAE government who is helping with nabbing terrorists. Ann Coulter suggested we thank the UAE with a fruit basket rather than our ports. LOL

You really think the days of appeasement are over? Perhaps you should see how the "international community" is talking about giving Kosovo to the jihadists all while getting on their knees and enjoying their first taste of Dhimmitude.

interesting article, thank you. I was having a conversation with an intellectual earlier today, he was in denial as to the percentages of muslims in countries not thought of a "muslim" countries like the philipines and India. He insisted that India was a hindu country and I had to remind him that the official religion and the percentile of the population were not necessarily the same thing. I told him the near east was going to end up being muslim in sheeps clothing just like the EU and I grieved that our Charlemagne had probably already been aborted. It sounds harsh but life is ...

That's the best and most concise article I've seen on the issue with Islam, and therefore muslims!

A phobia indicates fear. I do not have a fear of Islam. I have contempt and hatred.

I have a fear alright, and that's that my children will have to live in the itshole of a world of oppression, terror, and turmoil that has been left in the wake of nations "undergoing a transition" to becoming entirely muslim controlled with absolutely no real rights as non-muslims.

After that, I merely see reality, and reality here is that the socio-political implications of Islam are a carbon copy of what they were when Nazism threatened the globe. The fact that it's all driven by a "religion" that has insanity and a madman as a basis is irrelevant insofar as I am concerned.

I don't care what muslims do. I just don't want my nation and its way of life turned on its head with its people threatened.

You are right about it being Islam not just Arab Muslims who are violent and hateful. I don't think it is racist to point out that Arab Muslims attacked us and we are at war in Middle East. Given that, it would be insane not to notice that Arab Muslims are the biggest threat to us. If that is racist, I don't care.

Michael Savage is the only talk show host talking about this now. The others are all on "the port deal is good", band wagon.

"Only of Arab Muslims?? You've just excluded a majority of Muslims. There are a whole lot of violent non-Arab Muslims. The problem is the religion, not the race."

Good point. My phobia just went from bad to worse

"My doctor is a Hindu from India. I should ask him his opinion of Muslims."

Better watch yourself... that question alone will get you diagnosed with Islamophobia... which is very contagious and a biatch to get over... I find myself rejecting ports deals to good people just because the recognize the Taliban and don't recognize Israel.

"I've gotten to where I only want to listen to Savage anymore."

I try to listen to him daily, but I am not a fanatic about it.

At least Savage makes you feel good by hearing his rants about the same things that every conservative is concerned with, but are afraid to speak about.

I also, like the fill-in host Lars Larson. He is not afraid to speak his mind.
