Osama's Tax Incentives to Americans -- Not Telling us the Whole Truth
islam-watch ^ | 23Feb 2007 | Alamgir Hussain

In his latest video message, Osama bin Laden coaxed Americans to accept Islam, in which, he also offered them heavy tax incentive. He said, "There are no taxes in Islam, but rather there is a limited Zakaat [alms] totaling 2.5 percent." This huge tax-cut might be very tempting for the well-off and big corporations in America . However, he is not telling us whole truth about the taxation system of ideal Islamic states, such as was in the now-defunct Islamic caliphate, which Osama wants to reinstate on the global scale.

Perhaps they are indistinguishable.........maybe I didn’t misread and simply made a play on the obvious. Obamasama is how I ended it.

I started reading the whole thing and realized....”I really don’t care what Islam says.” I don’t want to know, I don’t want their ideas here in my country, I don’t want their ideas forced on me. It doesn’t fit our way of life. If this is what they want....fine, but leave it in the Middle East.

with either name, I’ll admit I’m immediately into nausea ( barf zone) so my analytic capacity is sustained only with great effort.

Sure, it doesn’t fit your life. hope, you can keep your life the way it is. But the truth is that life may change, if not now half-a-century, later... Are you leaving it safe for your children?
