James Zogby, founder and president of the Arab American Institute, expressed the idea in the simplest terms."You can be a third-generation Kurd in Germany and still be a Turk," he said. "After one generation, you become an American, not only in citizenship but in identity."
Except along the border, where it might be seen as racist and imposing.
Not exactly, we blame Islam. Islam is the root of terrorism. As long as Islam lives, there will be jihad.
The goal of jihad is the world Caliphate. Terrorism is only one tool of jihad. We are also losing to Islam when we cave in to the sensitivities of muslims by allowing them special swimming privileges so that their men are not exposed to western women in bikinis and by changing product designs the way Burger King did with its ice cream and Nike did with its shoes.
In the U.S., Islam is the most restrictive of cultures and is accordingly the lowest (most restrictive) common cultural denominator. Slowly, but surely, it is taking over. Most of the time in the U.S., muslims who complain get results. Here is a link to a Daniel Pipes article which cites the MANY examples of how Islam is reshaping our society. This article isn't new but you'll be amazed at how many changes had already occurred pre 9/11.
Thanks for the ping!
Thanks for the ping! He's right about that. Another terror attack in the U.S. and they will all be leaving America. One way or the other! He will learn what happens when Americans are pushed too far.
Islam does not breed terrorists on a sliding scale of submission to them, it breeds terrorists because it is a commandment of their scriptures to terrorise all men into submission.
Submission breeds terrorism far more than standing up like a man and fighting. You can see that in Israel and you can see that in the USA.
The twin towers did not fall in London, but in New York City, and now that America is fighing and London is submitting the busses and trains are exploding in London not New York City.
Sometimes simple observation says more than all the speculations in the world.
