The Fanatics Rule Islam

I am with you on this logic. Even 1000 fundamental terrorists is a dangerous thing able to create havoc on a catastrophic scale.

My only disagreement is I do not believe most Muslims are terrorists or are able to perform acts of terror.
I know for a fact that most muslims are not terrorist.
Misguided and superstitious as with all religions but terrorists? No.
 
Here's one man's suggestions for how to proceed, domestically anyway.

Evangelize all Muslims? Force them to give up their religion? How rational. How reasonable! Those good ol' peaceable Christian fanatics never did us any harm- the more we have the better. Forget the First Amendment- what we need is a First Emendment to prohibit this "religious freedom" BS and get rid of those agnostic, feminist-loving liberal creeps the majority of our godless nation supports. Then there won't be any more starving kids, health-care issues or environmental problems- Jesus will protect us! Now we can go make war on the entire ME (and hope Jesus put a few trillion gallons of oil reserves over in Alaska). Yippee-yee-haw!

Is your hatred of Islam something that was tought to you by your parents, or was it a reaction to the actions of nineteen people on 9/11 that made you think of a billion others as "dangerous fundamentalists" that needed to be converted? I look forward to your answer.

It was a result of 9/11 and I don't HATE Islam. I simply look at the concerted efforts to mislead non-Muslims and the animosities that some Muslims have for non-Muslims and what seems to be going on without our knowing it and it concerns me.

Add to that the tendency that many have to not read every post, to not remember or even think about what they read, their inability to separate truth from fiction, their need to see things frequently and repetitively for facts to make sense or sink in and the fact that there are always more new people coming on board. All that means that to you it may seem like hatred but I'm just exploring the subject and sharing my knowledge.

I love Muslims who aren't out to conquer the world. I wince and lament the death of innocent Muslims in Iraq and hope we can stay long enough for the Iraqi government to be able to protect the people's liberties.

Just like Muslims love Americans who aren't trying to stop them from conquering the world.

Except that the ones who are trying to conquer the world probably don't love Americans.

And the American's that are trying to conquer the world...

You have no proof that we are trying to do that. Does liberal democracy or representative democracy or liberty or freedom mean anything to you?

As was stated in the OP the majority needn't be terrorists for the fanatics to rule the religion.

ALL, however, are required to perform Jihad.

No proof?

Let me see...

Who's the only country, running around the world,
attacking sovereign nation's right now?
 
And just what countries are they attacking?

It must suck to always have to invite the evidence that sinks your argument. But I do understand you have no alternative.


Ok. Here ya go.

It's all about Iraq, isn't it?

Yep, it's all about Iraq and...

India and the Sudan and Algeria and Afghanistan and New York and Pakistan and Israel and Russia and Chechnya and the Philippines and Indonesia and Nigeria and England and Thailand and Spain and Egypt and Bangladesh and Saudi Arabia and Ingushetia and Dagestan and Turkey and Kabardino-Balkaria and Morocco and Yemen and Lebanon and France and Uzbekistan and Gaza and Tunisia and Kosovo and Bosnia and Mauritania and Kenya and Eritrea and Syria and Somalia and California and Argentina and Kuwait and Virginia and Ethiopia and Iran and Jordan and United Arab Emirates and Louisiana and Texas and Tanzania and Germany and Australia and Pennsylvania and Belgium and Denmark and East Timor and Qatar and Maryland and Tajikistan and the Netherlands and Scotland and Chad and Canada and China and...

...and pretty much wherever Muslims believe their religion tells them to:

"Fight those who do not believe in Allah, ... nor follow
the religion of truth... until they pay the tax in acknowledg-ment of superiority and they are in a state of subjection."
Qur'an, Sura 9:29

You forgot these...

7/19/07 Two U.S. soldiers have been charged with murdering an Iraqi last month near the northern city of Kirkuk, the military announced Thursday. Their commander was relieved of duty in connection with the allegations, a statement from the military said.

7/19/07 On Wednesday, a U.S. Marine was found guilty of conspiring to kidnap and kill an Iraqi man in 2006. Three other U.S. soldiers were charged last month with the murder of three Iraqis in separate incidents south of Baghdad.

7/19/07 A military jury found an American marine guilty on Wednesday of conspiring to kidnap and kill an Iraqi man seized from his home and shot dead last year.
Don't you think it will take kind of a long time to take over the world one killing at a time?

Those aren't examples of Muslims trying to conquer nations.

You misunderestimate your pals.

Somalia took less than a year. Iraq may be theirs within ten years. Only Westerners think in the short term.

And just because a cancer may be slow to kill you does that mean you'd welcome it?

Why don't you go and contract HIV and I'll tell you it will take a long time for the disease to take you, one T-cell at a time.

I wasn't being completely serious with my post, but my point was that you need to read what you post more carefully to prevent junk like that source from slipping in and diluting your anit-fanatic argument. Also, your world takeover conspiracy theories get annoying sometimes. Do you have any actual good sites for finding out whether numbers of muslims are increasing in relation to the rest of us? Or whether more people here or in France, England, etc. sympathize with terror than, say, five years ago? If so, it would be an interesting read.

There is no clearinghouse that registers and keeps track of the converts to extremism. All we can do is continually read the reports from all sources and in the dozens, hundreds and thousands of words and images you get a picture.

If there was ONE indication to determine the increase, try here.

You have a narrowly limited vision of what it takes to threaten or conquer a nation.

Well, it looks like you've exhausted not only your ability to BS, but my willingness to entertain it.

I bid you adieu.

Then why do you bring up invasion forces? :roll:

You are a waste of time, I think.
