The other day Michael Hayden joined the chorus of those who assert that Donald Trump's anti-Islamic terrorist rhetoric is helping ISIS recruit more jihadis.
“The jihadist narrative is that there is undying enmity between Islam and the modern world so when Trump says they all hate us, he’s using their narrative … he’s feeding their recruitment video.”Hayden joins Tom Friedman of the NY Times and others.
The new Muslim mayor of London also warns that this country must allow Muslims in or they will attack us.
The new Muslim mayor of London has issued a warning to Donald Trump: Moderate your stance on Muslims, or they will launch more attacks against America.This is not a winning argument. If they could attack us for any reason I for one do not want them or that culture here. What Khan sort of forgot to mention was this:Trump recently praised Sadiq Khan for winning London’s mayoral race, and said he would be willing to create an exception in his policy restricting Muslim entry into the United States in order to allow Khan to visit. But in a statement Tuesday, Khan dismissed Trump’s invitation, and also denounced his views on Islam as “ignorant,” suggesting Trump’s policies would increase the terrorist threat in both the U.S. and U.K.
While Khan touted the liberal values of British Muslims, some polls have found worrying indicators that their assimilation is incomplete. A poll in April, for instance, found that two-thirds of British Muslims would not tell the government if a friend or family member became involved with extremists. Half of them said homosexuality should be illegal and over 20 percent supported establishing sharia in the U.K.We've been handed these lines repeatedly but there are some questions that burn to be answered. Ever get the feeling that all Muslims are potential powder kegs? Ever get the feeling that the least offense could ignite the powder keg?
We are told to suppress our right to free speech so as not to offend Muslims and boost recruitment of jihadis. What other rights must we subsequently suspend to avoid offending Muslims and not rouse them to jihad? If rhetoric alone is sufficient to radicalize a people it's a sign of something deeper being wrong. In January the Pakistani issue of the New York Times removed a front page article critical of Islam so as not to offend. Really?

“Is every Muslim a powder keg?”
Yes.
Next question.
Yes. See history.
if they are observant, yes...
Look at muslims’ faces, especially the eyes.
Tells you all you need to know about their souls.
Yes and there is no such thing as a moderate muslim.
“Is every Muslim a powder keg?”
Just the ones ObaMao is embedding into refugee groups.
Look at muslims’ faces, especially the eyes.
Tells you all you need to know about their souls.
Look at Jesus life, look at mohamed life.
What state is this world in that Islam can even exist?
How can cankles even be running for president?
Such a world!!!!
A Lapsed Muslim is a peaceful Muslim.
A Moderate Muslim only wants someone else to kill the infidel.
A Devout Muslim will do the killing of the infidel himself.
EVERY person in the world could convert to Islam today...and, they’d STILL be killing people! (They kill each other.)
Considering the centuries of inbreeding that lead to a screw up in their hard wiring I’d have to go with YES!
No. Most are powder kegs. Others are lit matches.
Muslim extremists have been murdering innocent civilians for decades and there has been NO cry for condemnation or restraint from the theoretical “moderate” Muslims.
Muslim thugs, rapists, and murderers, have been terrorizing Europe, while demanding handouts and cultural accommodation, and there has been NO cry for condemnation or restraint from the theoretical “moderate” Muslims.
So, Mike, you can kiss my butt if you think we have some obligation to be more accommodating, or that our assessment of the Muslim invasion is “irrational”.
This is the correct answer. “If they consider themselves as observant and strict, then YES they are dangerous, without question. I have met many Muslims who were not so literally or methodically observant, who were ready and willing to assimulate.
I have had good business transactions with that type of Muslim. Just be pleasant, and polite to everybody, is my motto. Or at least non-intrusive.
Some of my doctors and dentists have been of that religion.
When I suspect they are of that heritage or adopted faith, I always take the precaution NOT to bring certain issues up that would be most likely to spark a disagreement. I’m usually not in their presence to discuss politics anyway.
> Is every Muslim a powder keg?
Pretty much, YES.
But I only base that on knowing 4 muslims.
To the extent that every time you talk with a muslim privately, 1 on 1, you set yourself up to be careful because that person or his/her relatives may come and find you specifically to harm/k I l l you, then yes, every muslim is a powder keg.
Does it really matter if thy are all power kegs? They have more than enough to mad bombers to make major changes in security and endanger people.
I stand corrected.
