Dr. Omeish stated “in Islam, jihad is a broad word that means constant struggle - struggling spiritually, emotionally...

I understand. It's like a moral crusade.

You can stop looking for "peace loving muslims" now....

"Peace loving muslim" is an oxymoron, just like "government intelligence" and "bureaucratic efficiency".

THEY DON'T EXIST!

Love your tag line. May I use the “Maple Curtain” identification?

Sure, I stole it from a radio host here in VT.

I know some peace loving Iranian Muslims and they live in my community. It is interesting talking to them. They are supportive of the war and feel the US needs to be there and hope we do not pull out. They feel things would be a lot worse in the region if it weren’t for our presence.

These are the adults, who knows about the college age kids.

True, and the more free the flow of information, the easier it will be to make this distinction. Threatening, name calling emails in response to questions or discussions of particular individuals actions impairs this important conversation.

Remember when Hitler wanted peace, a piece of every country in Europe. Well the Muslims just want every country in Europe. And we are next.

It needs to be remembered that moslems in Israel, Iraq, Iran, and in the west are working against terrorists. We have thoughtful citizens reporting weapoms caches and roadside bombs everyday in Iraq. Let’s not paint with too broad of a brush.

In most cases, Muslims who work against terrorists are doing so only because the terrorists are killing other Muslims in Muslim lands. If the terrorists were only killing infidels, we would not find too many Muslims fighting the good fight.

Sadly, it all comes down to education!

Their whole teaching is that martyrdom is their reward and preparation of going to heaven to a much better life than what they have here on earth!!

Very difficulty to change that "religion"!!!

How else can you explain that 19 "intelligent" young men are willing to sacrifice their own lives and at the same time killing 3000 innocent people and willing to fly into WTC and Pentagon???

Ray Mendez, mole-rat specialist, quoted from the documentary Fast, Cheap, & Out of Control (1997):

“The whole concept of stability is a concept of death.
It’s part of my problem with the Bambi concept of natural history, where everything is beautiful and cute and benign. It’s not the world. The world isn’t like that at all.

You’re either ‘prey, you’re an ‘enemy’, or you’re ‘ignored’.

Now think about all the islands. Island wildlife was wiped out because people could walk up to them with a stick and hit it on the head because it’s much easier to kill something that doesn’t see you as an enemy. By the time they realized it, they were extinct.”

Megadittos!

I wish the people who are adamant about searching out the ‘Peaceful Muslims’( damn, if they’re so numerous, why is the search so difficult?), would seek out the Neo-Nazi groups and find the ones who are not anti-Semites, anti black, etc.
A much smaller group- so finding the ‘good Neo-Nazi’s’ should be easier to do, wouldn’t you think?
What’s that we hear? Neo-Nazi’s are defined by Nazism, which means there aren’t any ‘good Nazi’s’???
So are all Muslims defined by Islam.
Islam’s basic tenet is ‘submit or die’. Islam is proving what it is every day on the news. Muslims are defined by Islam. One cannot embrace an evil ideology and call themselves ‘good’. Angels do not dance with Satan.

It is the supremacist ideology that they are taught. The kufir are subhuman. In some corners they/we are talked of as the crossbreeding of pigs and monkeys.

Regardless, they see us as second class (or lower) entities. We can be bartered/sold as slaves or killed as you might slaugther a cow or fish.

In Islamic countries there is a distinction under the law between a muslim and a non-muslim.

It can be like looking for a peaceful Klansman. Robert Byrd may not be lynching anyone but he still uses the N-word with all of its intensity. He claims he can do this because there are “white n****** too”. The supremacist thoughts remain.

I hadn’t asserted anything - - I merely asked a couple of questions. If you’re going to ask the questions, be prepared to be so-labeled.

But the questions are still worth asking.

More to the point, after all the childish namecalling and non-sequiturs, the universal muslim logic, the questions remain unanswered...

We are told that this whole culture clash can be ended if the kufir/”West” will just leave “muslim lands”.

Except this does the native non-muslim population out in the cold because THEY TOO ARE REJECTED. And if you are a muslim who converts away from the faith, you’ve committed a greater offense against Islam than one who never bowed to Mohammed. The Apostate who has left Islam “was saved” whereas the kufir never was.

And what were “muslim lands” before Mohammed The Warlord and his followers led their conquests? Is Lebanon “mulsim land”? How about Turkey? Spain? Michigan? Indonesia?

You live with your delusions, I'll live with mine.

I am upgrading to the broadest brush made, as soon as it becomes available.

I discovered, many many years ago, that a 000 brush is a waste of time in the muslim context.

That moslems in Iran and Iraq are "working" (whatever that means) against terrorist is reassuring < /sarc >.

It is possible, you know, to be "working" against terrorists and simultaneously killing Americans.

(isn‘t this as “old school“ and as offensive as saying that “the Jews control Hollywood?”).

People gave the Iranian Nutjob a pass when he made antisemitic comments at Columbia last week. They drew the distinction that he was speaking out against Zionism, not all Jews.

Except they ignored comments he made such as the ones about the "Zionist controlled media". Someone should have asked him if he accepted the Protocols of the Elders of Zion as "genuine".
