It will take many years to reverse the trend of hatred their brain-washing has cultivated. I seriously doubt anyone in my generation (early 40's) will witness a reversal before our deaths.

"Absolutely right; it is time Muslims accepted that it is Islam’s 8th-century attitudes that are causing so much suffering in the 21st-century world," wrote Mohammed Iqbal

Iqbal = Arabic for "dead man walking"

Muslims may not have been behind the 7/7 bombings either (a crackpot theory exploded by the recent al-Jazeera video).

"The Joos" run al-Jazeera. They fill it with outrageous staged propaganda designed to confuse and incite the Muslim ummah. When the ummah respond, they look like fools and savages in the eyes of the civilized world.

al-Jazeera is a tool of "the Joos", and it's successfully keeping the ummah in a state of of ignorance, poverty, and humiliation.

Churchill quote, coming up!

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property; either as a child, a wife, or a concubine; must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.

Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen; all know how to die; but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome."

Sir Winston Churchill, from The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248 50 (London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1899).

Point 1. Salman Rushdie is a major-league jerk. We'd be better off ignoring him even when he agrees with us, not celebrating him because he's persecuted.
