The problem with Islam is the so-called prophet Mohammed, may he be buggered in Hell by Satan.

Wilders is right, however, he’s got to understand that Trump CANNOT SAY THAT nor can any leader who gives such a speech on Muslim soil.

While it's true that most Muslims are not radicals or terrorists (and some Muslims - like Jordan's King Abdullah or General Al-Sisi in Egypt are genuinely dedicated to combating radicalism), the fact remains that most terrorists and violent religious fanatics are Muslims. This means that there is something intrinsic to Islam that disproportionately inspires fanaticism and violence in ways that Christianity or most other faiths do not.

Saying that Islamic terror is just the fault of a few bad apples sweeps the fact that Islam constitutively creates those bad apples at rates unseen in any other religion. Like Wilders, President Trump used to openly acknowledge this. It's unfortunate that he took the more PC route by giving his own version of a "religion of peace" while genuflecting to the Saudis.

Don’t know if I agree. Look at pictures of Iran, Afghanistan, and other ME countries in the 1950s and you couldn’t tell they are Islamic. We need to figure out what happened since then.

The first Muslim mosque in north America was in Ross ND. Most people don’t know that because those Muslims assimilated, they didn’t blow others up.

If you have a rat problem, you eradicate the NEST from which they emanate. Islam IS the nest. If you want peace and no more terrorism, Islam MUST be eradicated. That is all-nothing less.

Islam is the problem.
There is no moderate koran, there can be no moderate Islam without redacting large parts of it and that is a death sentence to those who try.

It has always been a religion of conquest and slavery, murder and mayhem and it always will be.

Mad Mo made it so.

Trump leads a nation, Wilders can push his philosophy which I may well agree with but unfortunately, there are other issues at play here.

There are 1.5 BILLION Muslims. Wilders’ approach simply cannot work, Islam desperately needs a reformation. Obama denied this and told them it was all the fault of Islamophobia and the Crusades. Trump took them on DIRECTLY, demanding “Drive them out!” THAT is the way to do it.

As a general comment, yes, the main culprit here in my opinion, is the radical Islamic teaching coming out of Saudi Arabia; but there is probably some blame to the Muslim Brotherhood too.

Then, we can say “Islam then and now” but Arabs helped the Nazis apparently, the Turks had their genocide one hundred years ago, there was genocide in Bangladesh with “militant Islamic militias” traveling around in the early ‘70s, Israel has been dealing with this stuff for decades so, as usual, it is a bit complex.

I blame it on Mohammedanism. It is rotten at its core and at its core is Mohammed.

You can’t base a religion on the words and actions of a murderer, a liar, a thief, a slave taker and a pedophile and expect good to come from it.

President Trump needs to stop trying to be a diplomat. He’s either getting bad advice or not listening to good advice.
