They can have ours, too...
Muslims should accept their host countries. Then, perhaps, they might find acceptance themselves.
KICK THEM OUT...KICK THEM ALL OUT
I agree. And the muslim world should accept Christians in their midst. Oh, wait, that isn't part of the deal, is it?
Well, they're right about how wonderful muslim culture is. It's only created some of the worst countries on earth. Even muslims aren't dumb enough to want to stay in countries like that so they escape to the west and bring their horrific, backwards, evil culture with them.

I have said it a bunch of times on here, in a pinch, you can print this article up and use it as toilet paper..
What's today's death count on religionofpeace.com or jihadwatch?
More hand-wringing from the Left. All we need to do is adopt Muslim culture/Islam in toto. Convert or die. Convert or we won't sell you oil. Convert or we'll blow you to kingdom come. What the heck. The ninth century wasn't all that bad.
Awwww, don't be so hard on your Muslim brothers, Abdul. What's that you say? You're talking about the WEST here???? So sorry! But you can understand my confusion ...
In the name of culture, Bushs wars turn into a noble mission to bring democracy to the culturally hostile Middle East, while Blairs draconian crackdown on civil liberties becomes a necessary defence of "our British values" against cultural and religious aggression.
In the name of Allah, bin Laden's murderous treachery turns into a noble mission to avenge some imagined slight done to Islam, while Zarqawi's bomb-throwing mayhem is elevated to cultural survival.
The same dichotomy has dominated Western political discourse since the Enlightenment era, fuelled by the climate of European military and economic expansion.
What do you cave-dwellers know about Enlightenment? You were too busy chasing scorpions around the desert and killing each other to share in its advances.
The dichotomy between we and they, we the Europeans, or Westerners, who are imbued with the light of reason and spirit of progress, and they who still dwell in the darkness of superstition and cultural stagnation.
Yeah, scoff at that. But the fact is, after 4,000 years of "civilization," you have accomplished less to feed your people, control your environment, and advance human knowledge and compassion than the West has achieved in one tenth the time. Care to look at the rates of literacy in the West versus say, Yemen? How many Americans do you see flying airplanes into buildings in Syria because they believe they'll be rewarded in heaven with all manner of delight?
Your culture IS stagnant, and you DO dwell in darkness. Deny it, or confront it and do something to change it.
I am tolerant...but not tolerant of murdering terrorists.
Muslims should accept that they're living in Europe. If they are masochistic enough to want to live under Muslim law, they should go back where they came from.
I guess I am just going to have to accept that I am a bigot.
Muslims should assimilate or go back to their muslim hellholes.
Oh, it's al jazeera. Nevermind.
Since when is Islam a race?
It isn't - it is a cult. But hiding behind charges of "racism" is a good attack for leftists and fascists.
... and they left their home paradise to go and suffer under their "white counterparts?" You can preach that sheeet to your dumbasses. We ain't buying it. After 9/11 we got the picture of your muSlime multiculture. Yo slimes, go back and blow yourselves up to speed up your trip to "real paradise". We were happy without your religion of peace and didn't have to take our shoes off at the airports and look behind.
The settler who wrote this piece understands the suicidal mentality of the Western elite. Just denounce any opposition with the magic words racist, colonialist and xenophobic. (Do you get that? The people who are being wiped of the face of the earth are the racists while the wipees are the anti-racists. The natives are the racists while the occupiers are the anti-racists.) I've stated over and over again the base problem isn't Muslims or Islamic radicals, the problem is ideological white-hating racism of the Western elite, a religious cult so nutty and fanatical that it will do anything to reach its final solution no matter what the cost, thus the bizarre phenomenon of the leftist establishment importing millions of Muslims who are deeply opposed to everything they believe in. Why? because they ain't white and they ain't Western, and their presence will destroy the hated West, nothing else matters. This is the religious fundamentalism that is waging a war of utter destruction against the West, not Islam.
such that the Chirac government could unashamedly recast the bleak decades of French colonisation of Africa and the Arab Maghreb as a "civilising mission" in the history syllabus taught in French schools.
While there is much to condemn in French colonialism and you can't blame people for wanting their Independence even if it leaves them worse off, the plain truth is that the French were more civilized than the savages that occupied those areas. And once again, I'm sure she thinks the guerrilla warfare waged against colonial France was heroic, I wonder if she could explain why native Britons and Frenchmen don't have the same moral right to wage resistance against their new occupiers.
In this context, the intensely rich and complex Islamic culture, which had fostered some of the most cosmopolitan and open societies in history, in Baghdad, Damascus, Cordoba, or Istanbul, has found itself reduced to a narrow set of vulgar stereotypes.
All of these areas were conquered by the sword, all were victims of Muslim colonialism, and held by brutality that equaled or exceeded that of British and French colonialism, they were never as open, cosmopolitan, or productive as modern political correctness make out, and where is the "diversity" in these areas now?
