when the real threat is clearly definable (Islam), as is the solution (forced conversion or extermination).


That's his post "dipshit". It specifically says Islam, not Islamists, not jihadists. Islam (A monotheistic religion characterized by the acceptance of the doctrine of submission to God and to Muhammad as the chief and last prophet of God. The people or nations that practice Islam; the Muslim world.The civilization developed by the Muslim world) is a religion and it encompasses all of those who believe in that religion. You're the one who has a comprehension problem. I suggest you retract your support of his post. Otherwise be lumped with him.

Gee I don't know what Islam is or anything.

Apparently you can't get the meaning of a statement given the words.

Must SUCK to be you.

I suggest you get off your ass and go over to Iraq and see what's there.

You're pretty quick to accuse me of not being able to read between the lines of his post but you'll notice he hasn't retracted it even after the distinction between Islam and jihadists has been made clear. Therefore I take him at his word. You should too unless he retracts. If you continue to support him you're in bed with him.

I am taking exactly your attitude and applying it where it genuinely belongs. If you need an education about what Islam is about (primarily killing off anything non-Islamic, in case you didn't know), just check the appropriate keywords ISLAM, MUSLIMS, TROP, RELIGIONOFPEACE, and so on.

Hey T!!

Move over!!

I'm in bed with you because I can read posts and interpret them correctly!!!

LOL

Where's the remote?!?!??

Seriously, Saganite, you have no standing here. You are REALLY barking up the wrong tree when you say really STUPID stuff like you have, to me. You have no earthly idea what you are even talking about or dealing with.

Sorry, Mike, I don't go that way. ;)

But seriously, we should take it easy on saganite as it is apparent that he is genuinely unawares of what Islam is about. This is what is known as a "teachable moment".

Here's a link for you, saganite, the Koran in English, online and searchable. See how much of it you can read before your stomach is turned at the utter barbarity of the creed.

That's what I thought...I never take my six gold and diamond rings off when I go through security and they don't set it off. My belt buckle (silver with a brass eagle on it) does.

There is no way I was the only person to click on your name to see if you posted a picture up. ;)

I'm fully aware of what Islam preaches. You in turn preach the same thing in regard to Islam. Forcible conversion or extinction. If you condemn Islam you condemn yourself.

Not at all. I simply recognize that Islam leaves the non-Islamic world the simple choice of defending itself or being conquered and destroyed. They force the them-or-us choice, and there is no shame in choosing "us". If I had divine powers I would make it so we did not have to make that choice. Islam and its adherents are the ones who consciously choose to make war. As the old saying goes, we didn't start it but we are sure as heck going to finish it.

I fully understand your discomfort; it's not a pleasant situation to be in. But we are not in this position by our own choice, and if you value or love anything in life then you must resolve yourself to the only choice they have given us. Kill them, or die ourselves. Every possible middle ground has been tried and failed. Must I list the peoples and nations that Islam is right now making war upon to make this clear?

If you've got another solution I'd be quite eager to hear it. "Criminal prosecution" bought us 9/11, so I'm not going to buy into that one. Deterrence doesn't work against people who believe that they are promised eternal paradise if they die while trying to kill you. And treaties and truces are nothing to them but the opportunity to resupply, re-arm, and plot our deaths. What other option are we left with?

I fly at least 100+k miles a year (US & Overseas) and have NEVER taken off, or been asked to take off, my class ring (you know..the big UT-Austin kind), or more recently my "Shields of Faith" dog-tags.

Only once did security ever "alert" to my dog-tags, and this was in Hong Kong if I remember correctly...coulda' been Singapore. I was asked to pull them out from under my shirt. The customs officer asked if I was U.S. military and I told him no, and that was that.

When I travel I always leave my nice watch that my better-half gave me at home and wear a $25 "dive" watch instead. That way if it "grows legs" during security no big deal.

However, you will not separate me from my laptop. I've exchanged words with a few TSA'ers wanting me to put my laptop on the scanner, with 10 people ahead of me waiting to walk through the metal detector...no way!!!
