For 1,000 years, 632-1683, militant Islam spread from Arabia through Spain and into France, where they were defeated in 732 at Tours, and toward China, where they were stopped by the Mongols, and then to Vienna (twice), where they were defeated finally in 1683. They also made it into India and Indonesia, where they remain today, although most left India for West Pakistan and East Pakistan (Bangladesh) in 1947.
Islam since 1683 failed to take any land from others, and failed to make any significant advances in science, medicine, literature. music, architecture or art. Almost all their advances, such as they were, occurred before the 1600s. Their countries were unable to manufacture the simplest machines. Their agricultural practices were medieval. Only the discovery of oil gave them any wealth, and they still can't operate their oilfields without the West.
Since WWII, many Muslims have fled repressive regimes ruled by the Mullahs to find a better life in the West. Unfortunately for them - and for us - they brought with them the cause of their failure - their religion. Now, as their birth rates soar, and they gain in numbers and political strength, they are beginning to demand that the West conform to their customs, traditions, and religious law, all of which contradict with the customs, traditions, and laws of the West.
Many in the West now preach tolerance, and ask us to submit to the demands of the Muslims. To appease them. They are wrong.
NOW IS THE TIME TO SEND A CLEAR MESSAGE TO THE MUSLIMS IN THE WEST.
"You came to our countries because you were fleeing repression and a medieval culture which prevented you from enjoying the advances of the West.
"Now, some of your number are beginning to demand that we conform to your customs, traditions, and laws.
"We refuse. We will not to conform, and instead demand that you conform to our customs, traditions, and laws, or leave.
"You may practice your religion, and your customs and traditions, but only within our laws, and only to the extent that they do not conflict with our laws. Sharia is forbidden in our countries.
"You are forbidden to engage in bigamy or slavery. You are forbidden to deny our rights to your women.
"You will conform. You will swear allegiance to our countries, or you will be deported to any land that will accept you.
"Our demands are not negotiable. Lawbreakers will be imprisoned until deported."
NOW IS THE TIME. IF WE VALUE OUR FREEDOM, WE HAD BETTER DEMAND THAT THE MUSLIMS IN OUR COUNTRIES ASSIMILATE, OR LEAVE. NOW.
Bosnia!
BTTT!!!
islam sucks
Not necessarily.
Some came to infiltrate!
BTTT
Wow, "since 1997"...anyway, well put.
Bumpiddybumpbump!
Bravo!
It's always best to keep the message as short as possible
My message to muslims is flanked by my ring and index finger.
...and partake of our fine strip clubs while doing so.
I am confident our government will make a stand and take this step.......right after the terrorist's second nuclear bomb attack and third bio weapon attack.
Extremely well articulated.
Any non-PC leaders out there?
Didn't think so!
The sad difference between the immigrants who came to America during the late nineteenth and early twentieth century and the Islamists who are invading Europe today is that the earlier immigrants actually wanted to be Americans. The Islimes who are calling for death threats in the streets today are the dregs of the dregs of civilization.
Tell them "Be good or begone!"
A Big Amen to that!!
I second that! BTTT
