The extremists are analogus to our view of the Mexicans.....they are doing the violent work other Muslims do want to do themselves.

37 percent of the men and women in its sample believe that if a woman cheats on her husband, she should be killed. Another 21 percent would spare her life and just cut off her nose or ears. As taught by Mad Moe the filthy, pedophile prophet.

No, the verdict of history is that all Germans share the burden, because all Germans let it happen. Excluding, I would hope, the present generation of Germans who weren't born or were infants when it happened.

"Why is not the passive Muslim majority held to the same standard as the passive German majority?"
That's an excellent question. And if we do not force the hand of the Muslim moderates(which can go either way, if pressed) then we are sealing our own fate. They MUST be made to declare their abhorrance for the violence, otherwise the radicals WILL gain their loyalty...
To: CowboyJay
I agree. Tell Michael. We need to encourage conservative writers.

FORCE THE ISSUE - either they melt their secular lives into the melting pot or they find another pot to live in.

Where are the moderate Muslims? From all we hear from them, I would guess they could be found right next to the Unicorns, Elves, and Gryphons.

The truth is in the book.

I work closely with a Muslim Palestinian every day. He is a moderate Muslim in word and deed. He is an observant Muslim also.
On the surface he is a charming nice person.
As I understand him and get to know him better, I can tell you without reserve, I believe if given the chance and the Muslim population ever become a majority and gained political power, he would not think twice about slitting my throat.
In other words, there are no moderate Muslims, just Muslims living in Dar al-Shahada or dar al-Harb

Youre darned right. I knew some yemense-american muslim guys in california. Oh theyre cool and all, they drink, hang out, shoot the breeze with us, have "regular" american girlfriends.
But y'know what... their families dont know they do any of these things. And I'm quite sure, that the time will come, when prodded hard enough (for god knows what reason they will invent) they could go all "Shoe-bomber" on us. Ive heard what they say about the war in Iraq. I dont trust em.

See tagline
It's derived from a post by Mr Rational on a thread calling for new holidays to honor all religions...
