It's not apple and oranges at all. Most people who do not commit crimes are not out there protesting the fact that crimes are committed.

For example, I've never seen millions of Christians take to the streets of America to protest the murder of a million fetuses a year in this country. I've seen hundreds,and even thousands, but I've never seen ten to fifteen million Christians out there protesting. Does that mean that Christians approve of abortion?

Of course it doesn't, it's absurd to think that. Just like it is absurd to comment that simply because millions of Muslims haven't taken to the streets to protest "the Jihad", they in fact support it.

The facts that we are not fighting one billion Muslims, and that we are fighting alongside Muslims to defeat terrorism is irrefutable proof that at least a vast majority of Muslims do not approve of terrorism in the name of Allah. Just like the fact that the majority of American Christians do not have abortions is condemnation if the act.

"When I see muslims reject not only jihad, but islam as well I will embrace them."

So, you are a Jihadist yourself.

Physician, heal thyself.

To denounce an atrocity and to "take to the streets" are two entirely separate endeavors.

Millions of christians are vocally opposed to abortion. And unfortunately, many "nominal" christians take a position of indifference or tacitly support the pro choice stance.

because millions of Muslims haven't taken to the streets to protest "the Jihad", they in fact support it.

There you go again with this "taking to the streets" crap, as if that were the only method of displaying objection.

The facts that we are not fighting one billion Muslims

Show me a poll of those 1 billion muslims where even a simple majority have unequivocally stated that Israel has a right to exist in peace.

I'll save you the time looking. It'll never happen. Show me a poll of any muslim population anywhere which states this. That will never happen either.

and that we are fighting alongside Muslims to defeat terrorism is irrefutable proof that at least a vast majority of Muslims do not approve of terrorism in the name of Allah.

A fledgling Iraqi defense force of questionable loyalty is irrefutable proof of nothing. For you to derive the conclusion you did from that premise without any other facts in evidence shows that you don't have a clue as to how to construct a logical argument.

"When I see muslims reject not only jihad, but islam as well I will embrace them."

No Louie, just a capitalist.

islam disrupts commerce worldwide. Those directly oppressed by its yoke as well as those of other ideologies / belief systems who suffer from islams' numerous violent jihads would be better off if islam were rejected by each and every one of its' adherents and condemned to the dustbin of history.

I would then gladly embrace all of the freed hostages.
