A recent survey by the Macdonald-Laurier Institute shows a frightening amount of extremism within the Canadian-Muslim community. A significant minority support terrorist groups and establishing a global caliphate. The results substantiate the notion that the Canadian-Muslim community is relatively moderate, but plenty of extremism resides in America’s northern neighbor to provide a base for Islamists.

Sixty-five percent completely repudiate Al-Qaeda and only 3% view it positively. About one-fourth view the Muslim Brotherhood​ positively, though some of these may falsely believe it is a moderate group. One-fifth of respondents had a favorable opinion of Iran.

Islam is not just another religion. It is a culture and an ideology that encompasses all aspects of life. I have even seen this admitted by muslims in comment sections on news sites.

They are powerful anywhere they are- especially in the U.S.
Never in the history of the U.S has such a small group wielded such power.
It's perfectly acceptable to ridicule, make fun of, ban Christians, ban prayer and bibles but God help the individual who dares look crosseyed at a muzzie. It's time we fight back in the war on Christians before it's too late. The Christian-Judeo principles are what this country was founded upon and what made it the greatest country the world has ever known!
