I do hate and despise repressive, autocratic, delusional, hateful belief systems that seek to subjugate the world and think of themselves as the unquestioned heirs to all of creation. If such a belief system is also characterized by a hatred of women, Jews, Christians, Buddhists and non-believers, all representational art, finds itself blowing up things because "allah told me to do it" and spews hatred to its own children and calls it education, I find that particularly reprehensible. Finally if such a belief system is populated with a core of 80%-90% supposedly decent people who say nothing about the small extremist fringe that behave like this, why that is something I find particularly offensive.
But I've got nothing against islam.

You SHOULD have something against Islam! It is the scurge of the millenium. It is out to destroy Western Civilization and it will unless we stop it cold.
I have always been for taking down the mosques all across the U.S. as a matter of national survival/security as well as deporting all Muslims from the U.S. who refuse to take an allegiance test and a lie test or who fail one or both. The Feds, under war powers acts, could freeze all Muslim PAC monies in banks. A lot could be done to protect our nation that isn’t being done because of Bush’s terrorist buddies (Remember Debbie Schlussel’s great piece on 10/8/01 on “Bush’s Terrorist Buddies”?).
A toast to you ......The worst for me is the ETERNAL SILENCE of the supposed QUIET AND NON-VIOLENT MUSLIM MAJORITY....Why they never talk when they see innocent people killed by THEIR EXTREMIST «brothers» ?
