The relgion, unless you happen to be living in a country completely subjugated and controlled by it...had never been a religion of peace. It has been one of war and conquer.

Even in those areas wholly controlled by it, it is one of coersion, intimidation, and tyranny.

Moderates have to escape those areas and come to places like America, and then not live according to the strict tennants of the Koran, if they want to live peacefully (IMHO) with their neighbors.

Many have done that...many more would like to I believe. In Iraq there are millions who want to...and a few hundred thousand who want to hold the sword over their heads while we try and help the most couragous build their own Republic and freedom. Hard work of freedom for sure.

I'm not so sure we have that many moderates here. Last I saw, the Canadians caved to Sharia law in Canada...and we've got Muslims insisting that hospitals do away with the surgical gowns that patients get and conform to the ridiculous prohibitions of the Quran. (Imagine how big it'd go over if we went over to an Islamic country and insisted they bend to our wants. Hoo-whee.)
