"Every Muslim did not fly into the WTC. Rational thought has to take over at some point. Let me know when it has for you and we'll talk."
Not every Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor either nor did every German seek the elimination of the Jews. Sorting out the friends from the foes is often not an option in a time of war.
It was muslims who bombed us on 911. It is muslims today reaping chaos and havoc around the world. We can only pray they are not all bad...but we do know everywhere they are there is trouble. Until such time muslim terror ceases, we must as best we can protect our strategic ports from muslims. Dubai is a muslim nation. Let me know when you figure this out, and we'll talk.
Can you at least try to treat this as a discussion between adults?
You cannot accurately compare Pearl Harbor because it was an act of a hostile government and its military. It is entirely different, so our warring against all of Japan cannot be compared with your personal desire to wage war against all Muslims.
No one is questioning, nor trying to minimize the problems with Islam, but it is overly simplistic to cast a single net over every single Muslim. And in this case, it is dangerous to betray a commitment made to a peaceful, competant company. That's what the Congress has done. Our word no longer means anything because of the emotions of the moment. And I, for one, am embarrassed that my Republican representatives reneged on their word for political gain and buckled under the pressure of the left.
