But I don't see the will to do so from any of the Western leaders.... even President Bush keeps mouthing that 'Religion of Peace' and 'hijacked religion' mantra. BS! Of course maybe that is window dressing while who-knows-what is going on behind the scenes but.....

There was a Muslim flag football tournament in Irvine, CA last week. Some of the original team names were 'Intifada', 'Fedayeen', 'Jihad', etc. Imagine any other organization staging such an event even using the name 'Crusaders' and imagine the outcry. PC is truly killing us - in large part it was responsible for the terrorists who committed 911 not being apprehended before hand - in Mark Steyn's own words, they practically went around with a glaring 'TERRORIST' sign on their foreheads.

Before it's all over (the WOT I mean) there is going to be a big pile of corpses somewhere - I mean in the millions.

And from another thread on the joys of Islam.....


Saudi Arabia - Conversion by a Muslim to another religion is punishable by death. Bibles are illegal.

Yemen - Bans proselytizing by non-Muslims and forbids conversions. The Government does not allow the building of new non-Muslim places of worship.

Kuwait - Registration and licensing of religious groups. Members of religions not sanctioned in the Koran may not build places of worship. Prohibits organized religious education for religions other than Islam.

Egypt -Islam is the official state religion and primary source of legislation. Accordingly, religious practices that conflict with Islamic law are prohibited. Muslims may face legal problems if they convert to another faith. Requires non-Muslims to obtain what is now a presidential decree to build a place of worship.

Algeria - The law prohibits public assembly for purposes of practicing a faith other than Islam. Non-Islamic proselytizing is illegal, and the Government restricts the importation of non-Islamic literature for distribution.

Jordan - Has the death penalty for any Muslim selling land to a Jew.

Religion of Peace Alert!

I think you allow what is being said in public to sway your opinion of what is going on in the real world. Yes, the President keeps saying that Islam is a "religion of peace" and that it has been hijacked, etc. etc, etc.... but the truth of the matter, his actions are saying the exact opposite.

In Afghanistan, the government is divorced from the religion.

In Iraq, the government is divorced from the religion.

Now... this divorce isn't going to happen over night. The religion hates the fact that church and state will be separated and will fight long and hard to prevent that from happening... but for the region to change, this has to happen... and we have to stand our ground (even at cost of lives) and make it happen.

But what has happened after 9/11 is a good strong and clear start of the Bush stratergy...

I do totally agree with you that PC is truly killing us... PC has to be the first casualty, here on the home front, on the War on Terror. If we don't kill it... we are destined to lose.
