Another bogus claim, and an insult to American men and women who are living, fighting, and dying with and for Muslims in Iraq and Afghanistan.

What about the traitors we've seen who were Muslim in the service, such as the grenade-throwing Sgt. Akbar? In any case, suggesting that it's not worth the risk is not an insult to anyone. It's simply an argument. If you disagree, don't use your phony patriotism to cover up an inept argument. Come out with facts and figures to prove your point.

Anyway, what's up with the 'Jihad' in your handle? It's disgusting in light of recent events. Why don't you change it?

Actually, to be accurate, it would be an insult to the Muslims our soldiers are fighting with. However ,I understand that when the facts conflict with your worldview, it is an easy response to claim wounded indignation on behalf of our soldiers, even when they aren't insulted.

And you should remember, Muslims once found alliance with America beneficial before. We helped them defeat the Communists (please note that this is not a claim that we trained AQ) and they then set sights on us.

It's true that Islamic populations are not monolithic, and that many (probably most) Muslims are peaceful people, people who want to work their jobs, raise their children, and sleep content at night.

However, it's disingenuous to say that Islamic ideology is not driving the current round of terror attacks we've been hearing of around the world for the last two decades. And one can't pass off those who espouse such ideology as fringe groups driven by a distorted reading of the Koran; from where I sit it appears clear that the motiviation of the terrorists springs from a clear understanding of that book, an understanding shared by such historical figures as Kara Mustafa and Saladin.

Have you read abotu Islsam conquering formerly christian lands and forcing them to convert? Have you read about whatIslam did to the Christians in the Balkans? Have you read about the 100 million+ hindus killed when they ravaged the Indian sub-continent?
