This is not about Muslim poverty (the Islamist terrorists who hit London all had good jobs. Mohammed Atta, who struck us in New York, was well-born and came from a prosperous family). It is about radical Islamist self-confidence and contempt for the West. And, it is about Western weakness.

This guy gets it.

I just had a similar conversation with a friend at breakfast about an hour ago. He thought the French problems were caused by poverty. I tried to explain it is a religous war and not about poverty.

The so- called radical Muslims are doing what God (Allah) wants done. There was no poverty involved in the lives of the plane hijackers on 9-11. Osama bin Laden and many of the so-called extremists came from wealthy backgrounds.

To me it's not much more difficult to understand than this. If you believe in God (Allah)you do what HE wants done. If you decide the pleasures and wealth of this world mean more to you than folowing God's will, as explained in the Koran, you are going to hell.

If you want eternal paradise, you follow the religion to the letter. Just like the so- called Muslim extremists.

You don't go into Infidel countries to assimilate, you go in there to install Islamic authority,by the sword if necessary. - Tom

.These kids are the community leaders of the future, so they are learning fast about how to get their way. A day will come when they will want everything Christian, European and Western banned. Hah! And the French were so damned concerned about the Americans ruining their culture.
