But if another major terrorist incident happens on our soil, expect that to change very quickly

Unfortunately, another attack, sooner or later, is probably inevitable. But let's hope we never have to find out which of us is wrong.

[Belial]

Why are they not first in demonstrating to the world that they truly do belong to a religion of peace?

I hear this argument parrotted about. It's pretty lame. You're essentially saying that Islam is a violent religion since moderate Muslim states don't broadcast after-school specials touting the virtues of religious tolerance.

You have to realize that the Geraldo-ization of world media is not yet complete.

=we all pat ourselves on the back about how we are so open-minded and tolerant and appreciative of diversity..

democratic party diversity requires higher taxes

>>>>Whether or not I've ever been to a mosque is completely irrelevant to my original point. Which was that is un-American to advocate the suppression of non-PC religions. We've have this thing called "freedom of religion", which is one of the founding principles of this country

Ok, you weren't responding to me directly. Understood. But I'm going to take up the arguement.

Freedom of religion, YES, we have this. However, back to my original statement. If you haven't read the Quran, been to mosque, or undertand what Khalifa is...you cannot contribute here. I've been. I know. The point of migration to the USA is to infiltrate. Muhyiddin. Pretending to assimulate is called Al Taqqi. You see, according to Shari`ah, a Muslim can only abide by Islamic Law, Shari`ah. The only purpose to migrate to another land is to change it to Islamic State. That is what we define as Terrorism, a process used by a small group of people to force political change. Therefore, are we supporting a freedom of religion? Or supporting a terroristic act?

My girlfriend's parents live in Morton Grove, IL

Does Morton Grove still ban guns from within the city limits? Just curious. It was a very famous USSC case some time ago.

Oh yeah....the Dems love anything that destroys traditional American culture. That hate that culture.

"You have to realize that the Geraldo-ization of world media is not yet complete"
This has nothing to do with the Geraldo-ization of our media or PC thinking. This is about the survival of Western Civilization (The USA in particular)We cannot allow 5th columns in this country whose goal is to destroy everything we stand for! I hope you agree (despite your muslim sympathies) that suicide missions, car-bombings, bioweapons, frequent calls for jihad, an other satanic behaviors should not be allowed or supported in America, whether it be Dearborn or NJ

[Mr. Mojo]

But let's hope we never have to find out which of us is wrong.

Finally, a point of agreement.

[Belial]

That is what we define as Terrorism, a process used by a small group of people to force political change. Therefore, are we supporting a freedom of religion? Or supporting a terroristic act?

I see you have a rather elastic definition of terrorism these days. Like so many.

Personally, I think playing word games like this dishonors the memories of the victims of true terrorism.

[Calpernia]

>>>>I see you have a rather elastic definition of terrorism these days. Like so many.

Elastic? Or the recognized definition? What is your definition?

Also, you still haven't supported any of your arguements to Islam. You said in a previous post, you haven't read the Qu'ran nor have been to mosque. So are you supporting the point of Islam or the freedom of religion?

They're moving in like locusts from other countries.

Middle Easterners streaming to Texas

Texas has one of the nation's fastest-growing Middle Eastern populations, and most of the state's immigrants live in Houston, according to a study based on census data.

Researchers at the Center for Immigration Studies say Texas' Middle Eastern population more than doubled in the last decade, to just over 100,000, including more than 52,000 in Greater Houston.

"The point of migration to the USA is to infiltrate"

Most are just here to make some money. You think a Muslim kid who comes here to study in school to become a doctor so they can support Bin Laden?

Yeah, yeah, like those guys studying to become airline pilots......

[optik_b]

"Yeah, yeah, like those guys studying to become airline pilots..."

Ok so I guess the muslim doctor who helped saved my wife's life was part of some sinister plot?

[Joe Hadenuf]

I wouldn't know, and I am confident you don't either. He could be quite harmless, then again, I am sure those nice guys that were studying to become airline pilots appeared to be nice guys too....

[Malsua]

They're not converting the natives.

While what you said is true about them moving in from other countries, they have been coverting Americans in our prison system for many years by the thousands.

Fortunately, these prislam converts are still thugs and thieves and murderers. They will bristle at the words of clerics preaching no alchohol, no sex, etc. It won't help Islam one iota.
