Those who have studied American attitudes toward Muslims say at the root of prejudice is ignorance

That and 9-11, July 7th, the Cole bombing, the Madrid bombing, the suicide bombers in Israel, etc...

How nice we're ignorant and dumb. I'd be willing to bet there are more advanced degree in FR in Science, Law, and Engineering than any sort of college degree (most likly an artsie-phartsie one of some sort)in the ABC HQ offices and newsroom.

The solution to all this propaganda is to stop watching ABC (and TV news in general), stop taking kids to Disney (which takes great pride in gay days), sell DIS if you own it, cancel newspaper and magazine subscriptions. They are all rubbish produced by media rabble.

So, everyone, get together and kill the TV, cancel your newspapers and magazines right now.

Islam seems to fly in the face of just about everything that liberals stand for. Islam is antiabortion, anti feminist, pro-religious expression, anti homosexual, etc. So who do liberals ally themselves with the Islamofacists? Both hate America and Bush.

I don't understand about Pentecostals, either, but I don't worry about them killing me for no reason. Funny, isn't it?

Excellent point. Cuts right through the misdirection.

I NEVER watch the network news and I don't intend to start now. What I don't miss is the liberal propaganda. I end up reading it anyway in the newspaper.

Comments from idiots like this in the MSM are the main reason why I do not watch television, I do not watch the news and I do not read the newspapers.

I can not agree more !

The MSM and their alphabetized fingers don’t understand the basic difference between Islam and the rest of the world’s religions.

Islam has never grown up. It is still a radical , violent, expansionist, isolationist theology.

To find a parallel in Christianity you have to go back 700 to 1,000 years. During that period you will find that Christianity displayed many of the traits displayed by contemporary Islam. None of these traits would help you win friends and influence people in today’s modern world.

So, How are two religious systems that are separated, emotionally, by 700 years of spiritual and social development going to get along?

They DO NOT. They CAN NOT. They WILL NOT.

This conflict will go on with increasing violence until:

1. Islam grows up.
2. Christianity, as we know it, disappears.

There is no third option.

Which option do you want to happen?

Service to demons does that don'tchaknow. What other world religion instructs its followers to lie and lie again, to murder and slaughter in dealing with those who will not bow down to the demon worship? What other world religion promises Paradise for those murdering in the demon's name? I will agree with one thing though, the majority of AMericans are still ignorant as to the truth about this demonspawn religion and its goals, and that is the demon's greatest partner. Why else would denying the truth about this demon religion be so prominent, so directing to even the democrat party?

America, you ignorant Islamophobes! Alright, maybe it's not all your fault. Your anti-Muslim attitudes have been "stoked" by "inflammatory rhetoric" from . . . President Bush.

You ignorant context dropper and reality evader.
There is a fact that you are ignoring:

War has been declared on America twice by Muslims: Aug 23, 1996 – formal declaration of war by Muslims against American military. Feb 23, 1998 – formal declaration of war by Muslims against American population both military and civilian.

What about your fear of global warming? Are you an ignorant globalwarmingophobe?

A lot of Americans have a "phobia" against fiends trying to murder our children.

We have met the enemy and they are us. We will lose this war from the inside.
