Not only that. But their zakat (Muslim version of tithing) by rules have to help, in part, support jihad.


So even the "good" muslims help the bad muslims be violent.

That’s why we need to stay out of other nation’s affairs. When a patriot is president, things go bad for the bad guys, but when a democrat is in charge, things go really bad for the good guys

"There is nothing which I dread so much as a division of the republic into two great parties, each arranged under its leader, and concerting measures in opposition to each other. This, in my humble apprehension, is to be dreaded as the greatest political evil under our Constitution."

-- John Adams, Letter to Jonathan Jackson (2 October 1780), "The Works of John Adams", vol 9, p.511

Muhammad to his long time friend and father to his child bride while his child bride was playing with dolls with another little girl: You should get you a young girl bride like I did. They're the best in bed. (No kidding. Look it up. It's in one of their "holy" books.)

I don’t think it’s in the Koran.

RE: So-called “good” Muslims are not Muslims at all. They don’t follow the directives of their own “holy” scriptures.

I call this living in COGNITIVE DISSONANCE. Lots of Muslims live like that. I work with a few.

Absolutely they betrayed us. Many of America’s best boys and girls came home from Afghanistan in body bags. Maybe instead of moaning those 180,000 should pick up guns and shoot some Taliban?

This is why we should always resist the temptation to nation build. Did not work in Vietnam, and has never worked since. Never will work.

Now, what is so hard about that to understand?

They keep looking back to Japan and Europe, but those were civilized places before the war who wanted to rebuild their civilization.

Afghanistan has never been civilized. They don’t want it and never will. On top of that we are trying to civilize them with soulless wokism. Even savages know it’s a load of crap.

Omar Mateen, the shooter at The Pulse nightclub in Orlando, was of a supposedly pro-US family of Afghan refugees.

He should have been sent to other Muslim countries instead.

See Post #11.

“In before we read the posts of those who hate ANY Muslims ( even those who help us ) and tell them to stay the hell out of the USA.”
__________________________________

I do not hate muslims: I do not *trust* muslims.

As a sane person who understands the tenets behind their faith I understand they are a viable threat to this country and those in this country that do not practice their particular faith.

Muslims of one sect do not even trust/honor/care for/allow to live unharmed muslims of another sect.

In the fine print of their faith, muslims are clearly directed to convert/control/ or kill those not adhering to their particular faith/sect.

Yes, there are those who have given us aid in that country. That’s not the issue. The issue is once they are over here, what will they practice?

Acting one way while being protected under the waiting onslaught of others in your faith/sect is NOT the same as being in a free society and then being able to practice the fine print actions of your faith actually INSTRUCTS you to convert/contain/or kill those not of your faith.

Took this stand a long time ago. Taking it, today. Will take the same stand, tomorrow.

You and your offspring are truly protected from muslim wrath by those that think rationally, as I do.

Yet that is not what the Afghan interpreters want. They want the big ticket win of permanent US residency, with relocation aid and benefits, not the consolation prize of relocation to another dismal Muslim hell hole where they will be reviled as not good Muslims and not of the local ethnicity. And their US supporters tend to shrug and say, well, let’s just admit them to the US. Problem solved!

I’m sure some will argue these translators are Afghan patriots or whatever but these types are just another variation on foreigner groupies. They attach themselves to foreigners in near every country I have visited as a tourist. In this case they are trying to milk Uncle Sugar for whatever perks they can up to and including a green card. We owe them nothing.

While some Afghan allies may be deserving of US entry, not many are. They were paid well, after all, and knew well enough the risks they embraced. I cannot imagine that the deal offered by the US was that we will pay you well to be translators AND then bring you and your families to the US when we leave Afghanistan.

If the Afghanistan govt falls soon Biden will blame Trump despite the fact that Biden broke Trump’s agreements with Afghanistan.. If it happens after Kamala takes over she will do the same.

100% the same thing we did to the Yards...

why anybody would ever trust US again, is beyond me.
