Obama is so thick with Islam that he couldn’t bring himself to fly the flag at half staff, or call the families of the slain servicemen. How in the HELL can we expect him to actually FIGHT the Islamic menace?

It’s also time to understand there is no such thing as a moderate muslim. It’s time to teach all Americans what islam teaches its adherents about how they should feel about and treat unbelievers (infidels and Jews).

There isn’t a muslim alive who has not been taught to covert us, hate us, kill us, lie to us and not take us as friends.

Let’s be honest here. The President’s inability to say the words Radical Islam is threatening our national security and the safety of the American people. It’s time to stop pretending.

There is no Radical Islam. There is Islam. All the authority you need to cut off hands, arms and heads, marry 10 year olds and rape women when it suits you is right there. You don't need to be Radical. You just need to be a Loyal Muslim.

Ya think? He’s the pimple on the butt of America. He’s made more people cuss than anyone or anything I know. And he’s still here because people can’t admit they’re wrong or they earn so much they’re bubble shielded from the realities of the world. He’s overstayed his welcome as an undocumented illegal who borrowed someone else’s soial security number and the only person who could prove or disprove he was born in the U.S. dired in a plane crash where she was the only one of 9 who died. So Damien Thorne, Manchurian Candidate, or Rosemary’s Baby? Take your pick.

“Radical Islam” is redundant.

How “radical” is the Islam he’s talking about—and so how accurate is his use of the term?

A majority of Muslims in Pakistan, for example, support death to apostates.

Jindal is doing the same thing he’s accusing Obama of doing - not describing the situation for what it is for political reasons.

What’s the major difference between Islam and Christianity?

Once you are baptized a Christian, if you decide that you’ve changed your mind about Christianity, you can renounce Christianity. Nobody is going to try to kill you for committing an act of apostacy.

What is the difference between Islam, and say, the KKK?

Well, you can quit the KKK without fearing for your life. There a lot of other differences, but that’s the major difference.

What is the difference between Islam and MS-13, the Crips, or the Bloods?

None. There is no difference. All four groups above have as their central tenant - “Once in, never out”

As such, Islam isn’t a religion. It’s a gang disguised as a religion, and not all that well. No religion can substitute coercion for faith, and the Quran expressly commands coercion as a tool for proselytization.

Since Islam isn’t a religion, they aren’t tax exempt, and their mosques are subject to the same tactics we’d use against gangs. Clinton was gagging to treat terrorism as a crime. The irony is that he could have by declaring Islam to be a gang and using gang task forces against them.

Moreover, all mosques would be subject to RICO statutes, which would be both convenient and appropriate.

Jindal could have called it like it is, but he didn’t.

Islam is an armed gang roaming the streets and committing crimes. They should be treated as such.

Read the Koran.
ISIS is Islam.
They are following the instructions of their prophet.
They are following the example of their prophet.
Written in the Koran.
It ain’t holy.

John Quincy Adams

In the seventh century of the Christian era, a wandering Arab of the lineage of Hagar, the Egyptian, combining the powers of transcendent genius, with the preternatural energy of a fanatic, and the fraudulent spirit of an impostor, proclaimed himself as a messenger from Heaven, and spread desolation and delusion over an extensive portion of the earth. Adopting from the sublime conception of the Mosaic law, the doctrine of one omnipotent God; he connected indissolubly with it, the audacious falsehood, that he was himself his prophet and apostle. Adopting from the new Revelation of Jesus, the faith and hope of immortal life, and of future retribution, he humbled it to the dust, by adapting all the rewards and sanctions of his religion to the gratification of the sexual passion. He poisoned the sources of human felicity at the fountain, by degrading the condition of the female sex, and the allowance of polygamy; and he declared undistinguishing and exterminating war, as a part of his religion, against all the rest of mankind. THE ESSENCE OF HIS DOCTRINE WAS VIOLENCE AND LUST: TO EXALT THE BRUTAL OVER THE SPIRITUAL PART OF HUMAN NATURE.

Between these two religions, thus contrasted in their characters, a war of twelve hundred years has already raged. That war is yet flagrant; nor can it cease but by the extinction of that imposture, which has been permitted by Providence to prolong the degeneracy of man. While the merciless and dissolute dogmas of the false prophet shall furnish motives to human action, there can never be peace upon earth, and good will towards men. The hand of Ishmael will be against every man, and every man’s hand against him. It is, indeed, amongst the mysterious dealings of God, that this delusion should have been suffered for so many ages, and during so many generations of human kind, to prevail over the doctrines of the meek and peaceful and benevolent Jesus (Blunt, 1830, 29:269, capitals in orig.).

Didn’t Obama just make a secret deal with an Islamic nation? Or is Iran a Christian nation?

Bobby Jindal likes to think on the “positive” side of things. To me, he’d made a great leader, because he’s brilliant, of course, but also he calls a spade a spade; he’s not the least bit intimidated by Obama or Islamic terrorism; many are.

On the prolife issue, Louisiana, for the fifth year in a row is the most prolife state in the nation. That makes me listen up right there to everything else Bobby has to say.

Stop using the term “radical islam” , there is no “radical islam” or “moderate islam, there is only islam .

The only difference between a Radical muslim and a Moderate muslim is the distance they place between themselves and the bomb

That is true, talking about “moderate muslims” is as oxymornic as talking about “moderate nazis” in the third reich

I think he is still constrained, to some extent, by the backlash that he *knows* will come from being candid about the challenges we face. It would have been better, imho, to call for an end to Muslim immigration & maybe a prohibition of the practice of Islam on American soil, but we have the First Amendment that prohibits us from doing so.

Islam, like the communists- & anyone else who seeks to undermine America, have figured out how to use the First Amendment & our other guarantees *against* us, leaving us powerless. Unfortunately, as it pertains to race, the communists & Islam- literally, foreign agents & naturalized or American born Arabs* & ‘nation of Islam, have joined forces (Ferguson, Baltimore, & elsewhere.

We need to figure out how to stop this because it’s, apparently, a fatal flaw.

*google Bassem Masri. If you’re not familiar with him, it will open your eyes. He is not alone.
