Even more moderate Muslim groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt

Since when is the Muslim Brotherhood a "moderate" group?

Shut up and get a job you unemployed camel jockeys.
The rest of the world has no interest in your "light" that brings nothing but poverty and corruption to the progress of man.

We can do just fine without the progress of your Islam, thank you very much.

Hey stupid Libs. Here is your stupid freaking future if you don't wake up.

It's called Jihad.

And the point right from the horses mouth is...

"But we want to free all people from being slaves of men and make them slaves of Allah."

Get those burkas cleaned and pressed Hollywood. You'll all look fine in them for the 2015 Oscars.

My way or the highway, huh?
Sounds like we could use a lot fewer of these guys sharing the planet.

"But we want to free all people from being slaves of men and make them slaves of Allah . . . And if after all discussions and negotiations they still refuse, then the last resort will be a jihad to spread the spirit of Islam and the rule of Islam," he says, smiling."

What they want is not to make us slaves of Allah, but to make us slaves of themselves. At heart, the Muslim male is a slavemaster.

The Muslim Brotherhood is the "moderate" foundation for Al Qaeda.
Moderate is their byword for only killing tourists in Egypt.
Others can be intimidated into shutting up as they lead into the dark.

Hizb ut-Tahrir says that Muslims should abolish national boundaries within the Islamic world and return to a single Islamic state, known as "the Caliphate," that would stretch from Indonesia to Morocco and contain more than 1.5 billion people.

It's a simple and seductive idea that analysts believe may someday allow the group to rival existing Islamic movements, topple the rulers of Middle Eastern nations, and undermine those seeking to reconcile democracy and Islam and build bridges between East and West

Well the unChristian Monitor get more wacko and insane daily. "Some Analysts" need a serious increase in their medication. Look at the ethnic strife in Iraq, Afganistan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and even among the Palestinians. Time to get a grip on reality "Some Anaslysists"

This wacko fantasy of "Some Analysts" runs afoul of another REALITY. All the various wackos Islamos think THEY should be the Caliph. Islam is tribal and clannish and stagnate. The idea they could ever united under one banner is absurd nonsense.

Let's see, intimidation, forced belief,Shari'a law, and
if you still won't accept, jihad or death.

When will the world wake up?

return to a single Islamic state, known as "the Caliphate,"

'Return' implies they attained this status in a past age. Close. But there never has been a unified single Muslim entity under a caliph.

Good luck unifying those Sunni and Shia.

The early Caliphs spent a lot of time excommunicating one another. The lack of unity among Muslims made the First Crusade a success, even though it was largely a French operation.

They are starting to clearly state in public which many of have said about them for years. Of course the Drive By Media will ignore them and believe if we simply leave Iraq they will go away. Right! Bwahahahaha! A world wide Caliphate is what they have sought for centuries. If liberals don't wake up they may just get it this time.

Well, I see one bright spot in all this. Actually, three.

First of all, we will be rid of the fantasy that there are "moderate" muslims.
And we will not have to wonder which capitals or major cities to bomb into oblivion when their surrogate armies perpetrate atrocities in dar al harb...

Finally, we can breathe easier having a single muslim killer nation in the UN, rather than 58...

One problem with this is that there are about 750 million Hindus sitting square in the middle of the stretch from Indonesia to Morocco who have no interest in being part of any Islamic Caliphate.

I'll take freedom or death, thank you very much.

"But we want to free all people from being slaves of men and make them slaves of Allah."

This culture is truly mentally deficient.
They are truly incapable of seeing the identical nature between the "slaves of men" and "slaves of allah", as administered by men...

They are smartly dressed in Western-style suits and sip thoughtfully from cans of Pepsi...

Have a Coke and a smile. Oh wait...
