Take note of this; since 2009, if you wanted to build your career and win policy debates, only al-Qaeda was a problem.

This focus on a particular group of Muslims obscures the fact that the religion itself is the foundation of the threat.
Obama wants to cast Al Qaeda as if they were a gang like the Crips and Bloods. This lets Islam off the hook.

If every member of al Qaeda was eliminated, the problem would still be here .
A Muslim doesn't have to be told by Al Qaeda what to do, when he can get it directly from God by reading the Koran, and following the examples set by Muhammed in the Hadiths.-tom

It's not a religion, it's a political system masquerading as a religion. Calling it a "religion" allows them to skirt laws under the cover of the First Amendment, when they have no right to that distinction.

David Koresh and Jim Jones were not allowed to break laws by virtue of the First Amendment because they were cults. Why should Islam be different?
