See here, for instance.
How do you explain this quote? "Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall by the sword before you." It's from a holy book of one of the three major monotheistic religions... I'll leave you to explain how it's any different from the verses of the Koran you Islamophobes like to "prove" that somehow Islam is evil.
My comments are dealing with my fellow "citizens" who may be Muslims, and the silence of these groups is deafening.
There are MANY Brave and hopeful Iraqis dying every day for a chance at DEMOCRACY, I understand this and admire it.
But where is the SUPPORT in the Islamic world for these people; the same Islamic world that finds the "mistreatment" of murderers and rapists (the "stacked" nude men had raped an 18 year old male at the prison)at Abu Ghraib appalling, stays silent when Iraqi Police and National Guard are assassinated and executed; and REMARKABLY silent after 9/11/01, in fact they were dancing in the streets of Jersey City.
BTW, some of those who did speak out qualified their comments by condemning American foreign policy as being part of the cause, especially our support of Israel.
The Al Queda (sp) terrorists are the ENEMY of all, they are the infidels and heathens, and they need to be ostracized not embraced, and destroyed, not admired, by one and all.
As for the quote it's from the Old Testament, and that's part of the quandry about Jews, Christians and Muslims: we ALL believe in Father Abraham, but rather than celebrate our similarities and respect our differences, we have spent 2000 years (give or take) killing in the name of the same God, basically.
