Bob - thanks for the clarification. Did you see my remarks
relative to your dialogue with Sashah. I forgot to mention
that a criticism of Muslims is not "racist." There are
about a billion Muslims globally -- black, caucasion, Asian, and everything else. These sub-ethnic categories
even exist WITHIN single nations. Using the term "racist"
is like any ad hominem attack that employs a loaded
label to silence an opponent's rational argument. I wish
I had mentioned that to her myself. All best,

"I forgot to mention that a criticism of Muslims is not "racist."

Yep - outstanding post (again). Good point on the racism smear. I'm so used to it with the Muslim apologists that it sails right over my head. To me it's no different than being called a racist for opposing the KKK, since the KKK is primarily white (i.e., I'm anti-white because I oppose the Klan). If what one says is accurate and supportable, it's not racism, it's the truth.

The Jews in Germany, prior to WW2, were not the monsters that the Nazis called them - meaning the Nazis were racist. Muslims today have a LOT to answer for. The first thing being why the non-violent rank and file continue to defend that 'religion', considering what the leadership espouses. If I belonged to an organization because, say, they oppose affirmative action, but later they start using the "N" word and burning crosses - I'm outta there! immediately. I'm not going to make excuses for that behavior, no matter how much I may think that I've been wronged.

I'm still waiting for that mass-exodous from Islam. So far, no sign. Thus, I will continue to accurately critique them.
