This was interesting, thanks for posting!!

Too far and few between, that's my take on this.

It's a good read, but we should be reading hundreds of articles like this daily, not one per week or two.

The Muslim world should be up in arms at the thrashing their faith is taking in world public opinion. Instead we get a few cornered Imams making a few CYA remarks that will fade away faster than redness from 15 minutes in the sun.

It is a global scandal, that the Muslim world has thus far stood by and accepted what is being perpetrated on their behalf, in almost unanimous stone cold silence.

It's not going unnoticed here. We've got your number Islam. It's a big fat zero when it comes to operating in the civilaztion that is 2005, not 1205.

interesting. possibly even encouraging. I cannot but wonder how long it will be before this author has a death-fatwa on her head.

A good read.

I only wish I saw as much outrage and visible response as I did over the phony Koran in the toilet issue. But I guess a book is more important than mere human lives to some.

"On March 31, 2005, the presidential panel on ‘weapons of mass destruction’ (WMD) published their overwrought report that is over 600-page long in which it pointed out a colossal failure by the U.S. intelligence (read CIA), which gave a blow to American credibility that will take years to correct."--Dr. A.H. Jaffor Ullah, a researcher and columnist, writes from New Orleans, USA

Whenever you have to put 'Sanity' in your name it usually means you're not.

The terrorists are only interested in one thing

WORLD DOMINATION

You would think that the US being supposedly 90 % Christian that the blinders would come off but most people refuse to open their eyes or have been hiden from the light so long they dont know what truth is anymore.

The Islamic jihadists already had their minds made up to strike and strike again against "soft" targets in the West, regardless of who was President of the US, or of overtures made by the Western capitals to appease the demands of the jihadists.

Bush is cited only because he chose to resist responding to these appeals for "peace", which are nothing less than piecemeal surrender.

The International Socialists used the same tactics in their quest for "world peace". Defined as conforming to the demands of the Comintern leadership, as failure to comply was evidence that the nations or individuals resisting were not interested in "peace".

Non-response to provocation is regarded as "surrender" in the eyes of the jihadists.

And what about assimilation? It is not bigoted to ask Muslims if they are integrating into the societies they are living in. Just as the British government has responsibilities toward its citizens, immigrants included, so too do those immigrants. Muslims ask for time off work for prayer, for example, and they often get it. But are they truly living in Britain or are they perpetuating an existence that even their relatives "back home" long ago left behind? Domestic policy is too often ignored by many Muslims who are more concerned with Palestine, Iraq or any other place where Muslims are believed to have suffered injustice.

Part of the Muslim's failure to assimilate is the fact that, almost universally, they claim allegiance to Islam first over any nation, state or other entity. There are virtually no Muslim-Americans or Muslim-Britons - there are Muslims. Where they live is a matter of necessity to hear them explain it.

Frankly, I'm tired of the excuses that are used to explain why western nations are the target of these Islamic murderers. The reporter is afraid to condemn her religion as the primary source of today's mass murders, but she is beginning to get the picture. Islam, as she noted, is NOT the religion of peace as we are often told, it is the religion of "SUBMISSION".

Perhaps you should re-read that part - It is the religion of SUBMISSION

Have a good day.

For those who say that we, the West, are responsible for Muslims going crazy, I say, BULL!!! Look at the recent events in Egypt where innocent tourists, mostly non-American, were slaughtered by murdering Muslims. These types of attacks have been going on for decades. Are the We-Are-Responsible-For-Their-Rage apologists saying that westerners should stay in their own countries and never travel to Muslim-dominated lands? Or have business dealings? What utter nonsense! Without the West, most Muslim countries would consist mostly of dates, goat herds, and a few palm trees.

Hey lefties and assorted right-wing isolationists: Pull your heads out of your anal cavities! They hate us and try to kill us because we are successes, and they are failures. They are unable to build modern, successful societies, so they try to destroy ones that are. It is the trademark of the vandal...not the oppressed. It's that simple.

I raise these questions because London might have done it for me, but I'm not done with Islam. The clerics and the terrorists will not take it away from me. God belongs to me, too.

Some people are born stupid. Allah commands terrorism, theft, rape, torture and lying. God commands forgiveness, love, faithfulness to your family and moral responsibility. If you cannot tell the difference between Satan and God, you deserve what you get.

And for those non-Muslims who accept the George Bush excuse, I have a question: Do you think Muslims are incapable of accepting responsibility? It is racist — or at least in some way bigoted — to think that Muslims can only react violently.

I'm not one of those who accept the blame Bush excuse, but I can answer the question. It's not racist or bigoted to think muslims are incapable of accepting responsibility...it's borne out by the facts. When 88 people are blown up in Egypt the arab media blamed Israel...and yet Egypt are hunting muslims...so how good is the arab media and the large segment of muslim society who watch and believe it accepting responsibility for the actions of muslims?

I fine piece of writing by someone who finally gets it.

Bravo!

She better watch out, because she is now a target, and her assassins will blame Bush for making them do it.
