Let's see, their greatest contribution was an essay on math in the 9th century....and they want to destroy Americans and Western culture in the 21st. Which should we be more concerned with??

Who is this arsehole?
Cat Stevens endorsed the fatwah of Rushdie...I've heard that Cat has moved away from that position.
What drivel.

Cat Stevens, aka Yusuf Islam? He was an advocate for the killing of Salman Rushdie.

Blah blah blah!
They are involved in local schools, politics and the military.
The women wear white cloaks--sometimes red or black--even green-- with little hoods--so do the men; some have names you might recognize or even admire.
Nobody knows how many they are. They may be more than 6 million strong in the United States, coming in all hues.
They are patriotic, love this country and denounce terrorism.
They are our fellow Americans. Our friends.
Members of the Ku Klux Klan.

They have sure deteriorated in the present century. From the crusades to terrorist bombings.

If Muslims in America, love America so much, why have they done NOTHING to help root out and expose the terrorists in their midst?
Instead they continue to send money to "charities" that support terrorism. They hide people wanted for questioning.
Worst of all, they portray themselves as the innocent victims in the war on terror. Perhaps some of them are, but the public responses given by their leaders have ALL been self protective and unhelpful in exposing the cancer of terrorism within their midst.

The religion also says, "If anyone saves a life, it would be as if he saved the life of all mankind." Except for Jews.

Medieval Muslims contributed to our world in other ways.I guess the old question, "What have you done for us lately?", as in the last 500 years comes to mind.
He wrote "On the Calculation with Hindu Numerals," which helped spread Arabic numerals in Islamic territories -- and to the West.
Well, that's true. He copied some mathematics from the Hindus and got the name "al jabr" stuck on it. The Hindus really get tired of Muslims trying to steal the credit for their ancient mathematical achievements.
