All Muslims aren't terrorists, but all the terrorists were Muslims.

The demonization of Islam is something that the Muslims have to fix. Not us. The perception is the reality, particularly when most Muslims seem to give tacit approval to the terrorists by their lukewarm or nonexistent outcry against them. Doubly so when mullahs are routinely preaching against innocent "infidels" and mosques are considered safe havens and recruiting stations for Islamofascists.

I only had to read these first words by this Islamo-Nazi...

"Even though the attacks were condemned by Muslims."

to know what the rest of his speech is. A lie.

He also called on European countries to give Islam the same official recognition as is given to mainstream European religions.

Official recognition? I don't think so!

Following is a post by Broadsword from 1/29/2005

Broadsword's 20 questions about Islam

Why is the religion of peace directly responsible for 28 out of the 30 violent conflicts raging in the world today?

Why is the religion of peace responsible for the vast majority of chattel slavery in the world today?

Why is the religion of peace responsible for the vast majority of terrorism in the 20th and 21st Centuries?

Why are the practitioners of the religion of peace routinely slaughtering unarmed practitioners of every other religion wherever they can get away with it?

Why does the religion of peace call for the murder of anyone who converts from the religion of peace to another religion?

Why do so many of the believers of the religion of peace look forward to the opportunity to rape 72 virgins in heaven if they die while killing innocent women and children of other religions? Is it a god they worship, or just sex? If a god, then shouldn't’t heaven have more to do with him than their libidos?

Why do the leaders of the religion of peace routinely issue fatwas (death warrants) for anybody who questions their holy book of peace and their holy prophet of peace?

Why is the religion of peace responsible for the sexual mutilation of millions of little girls and the savage oppression of women?

Why did millions of the practitioners of the religion of peace laugh, cheer and dance in the street because 3,000 innocent men, women and children were murdered by seventeen men who supposedly “hijacked” the religion of peace? And why don’t the real practitioners of the religion of peace condemn the supposed “hijackers” of their religion? Why the deafening silence? Why the smiles? Why the cheers and high fives?

Perhaps I just don’t understand this whole PEACE thing. Did the definition of the word change, or is somebody just blowing a lot of smoke?

Even though the attacks were condemned by Muslims, "the majority in the West ... never paused for one second to look back and ask since when an act of individuals could be the reason to condemn one fifth of humanity," said Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, chairman of the Organization of the Islamic Conference, the world's largest Muslim group."

Hmmmm...I didn't see many condemning the attacks...

just the opposite!

Islam condemns itself

They keep letting that 'illigetimate war in Iraq' line slip in there. Keep repeating a lie enough and it will be taken as truth.

"The West Demonizes Islam"

If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck...

OK, maybe overly simplistic. The illiterate and poorly educated of the Islumic world may not be clued up to the fact the clever zionists and crusaders are now translating the vile sermons, khuttbahs and rulings on fiqh from Islams holiest sites, and from the mouths of their highest authorities, but we are. We see the murderous actions of jihadis and shaheeds all over the globe, massacring Jews, Hindus, Christians, Buddhists, Sikhs, Agnostics, and Atheists alike, while chanting "allah akbah!" and using the Koran, and hadeeths as justification.

But are they really that stupid? I suspect former (Turkish) diplomat, and professor Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu is not.

This line gives away his true motivation:

He also called on European countries to give Islam the same official recognition as is given to mainstream European religions.

And the continuing pattern of the islamic agenda emerges... "official recognition" for all things islamic to their made up "concerns" of everything from toy piglets, to enslaving women is addressed in their favor. Their perverse rationale for these special privileges is this - Muslims are VICTIMS! LOL.

Kinda reminds me of a child who kills his parents and then has the nerve to ask for clemency on the grounds that he's an orphan.

"Muslims have suffered from ethnic cleansing and massacres that have largely been ignored by the Western world."

Bullfarts! Apparently islamite killings of non-Muslims don't count to him. Indonesia and Muslim incited violence against and islamite massacres of Christians is a perfect example.

I say let's give them the same recognition as Scientology or the Church of Satan.

Islamic Official Says West Demonizes Islam

Correction, Herr Ihsanoglu. Muslim conduct demonizes Islam. The rest of us just comment on it.

Like it or not, peaceful Muslims are not the mainstream; they are the fringe. We're working on correcting that by distributing high-velocity one-way tickets to Allah to the violent Muslims of the world.

Not only is Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu paranoid, but his name appears inhuman like it came from a sci-fi movie.

islam IS the problem.

islam stands convicted by it's execrable dogma, and the infamous crimes against GOD, and humanity, committed in it's vile name, by it's subhuman, bloodstained, adherents.

Actions speak louder than words, "ye heathen curs".

"I have neither the time or the inclination to sort out the average adherents of your Moon Rock Cult from the dangerous ones."

As for me, I consider each and every one of them "the dangerous ones" until conclusively proven otherwise, case by individual case.

I trust none of them.

I know a devout Muslim, of Iranian descent, pretty well. He came to the USA when the Shah fell, and is now a citizen.

He says (and I believe him) that any jihadist he comes across has bigger problems than DHS or the FBI to contend with.

His take is that the jihadist problem is based on the massive ignorance of most of its practitioners, rather than Islam itself.

Maybe he's right; maybe not. I do know I'd share a foxhole with Obayed anytime. However, he is an exception to my policy stated earlier - as far as I'm concerned, Islamics have something to prove to ME; not the other way around.
