Yes. The question is what are we going to do about it
I think you forgot the USS Cole.
The answer is obvious: YES!!!
The problem is that not one person I know of...including all of you here...have a solution to the problem that can be carried out.
We can’t deport them...there’s no one in the top levels of government to support this. We’d need a complete government change to accomplish it.
We can’t bomb Mecca and destroy their center of worship...there’s no one who would give that order. Again, a total change of government would be required.
If we declared Islam illegal, every lawyer from here to Kingdom Come would come crawling out of the woodwork saying we were destroying the 1st Amendment.
Besides, if ANY of the above happened at all, don’t you think the Saudis would instantly cut off all oil imports to the US? We’d get no more oil from them them unless we went in and forcibly took control of all their oil production facilities. Not only that, we’d also have to deal with the howls from the rest of OPEC and likely have to threaten THEM with a nuke on their capital cities if they don’t shut up.
Granted, I’ve played around with these very ideas in a scenario I call “America: Supreme”. We would assert ourselves upon the world with the force and might we’re capable of and do what we damned well pleased because it was RIGHT.
Chances of it actually happening? Slim to none, and Slim just left town.
We know it does ... and we now need to convince the whole world about it before it’s too late. Suggest someone sue Islam for crime against humanity (911, and many more). This so-called religion and its false prophet should have been criminalised a long time ago.
Read Ibn Warraq’s Why I’m Not a Muslim
It’s clear that the Koran as originally depicted encourages
violence: read it! There may have been edicts issued over
time to moderate this violence, but the jhadists have not gotten the message.
In a word, yes.
Yes, and there's probably more.
