What I don't understand is why anyone thinks the Iranian Monkey and te rest of the IslamoWhackos are not correctly representing Islam.

Because it doesn't.

There are Muslim members of this board who hold the same patriotic and conservative political views as you. Yet, they would consider themselves "subjects of Islam".

Worldwide, such Muslims are clearly a minority -- perhaps no more than 10% of Islam's billion-and-a-half constituency. Similarly, the Islamofascists are also a minority within Islam -- probably no bigger than a minority than those who value freedom and democratic institutions.

The remaining 80% represent the Islamic equivalent of what some on this board refer to as the "sheeple". While a much larger segment of society than in the U.S., in Islam, as in the U.S., that means uninformed and largely ignorant -- neither a committed libertarian nor necessarily a radical.

These Islamic "sheeple" are "up for grabs". Bin Laden understands this -- recall his "stronger horse" analogy? And so do Bush and Blair -- who have carefully avoided making war on Islam or the national populations. Instead, they have made war rather specifically on a.) the Taliban and then b.) Saddam Hussein.

That this approach can achieve success is obvious: Electoral participation in Iraq (and Afghanistan) topped 70%. The "sheeple" who are "up for grabs" responded to the opportunity.

Why make enemies of a billion-and-half Muslims when you don't have to in order to win?

"Why make enemies of a billion-and-half Muslims when you don't have to in order to win?"

May I suggest reading Winston Churchill's The River War, published in 1899? They are our enemies.

As for your reference to board members, to which board do you refer?

In answer to the Muslims you know, are you familiar with the Muslim concepts of tarqia and kitman? I asked because you are, by implication and assumption on my part, a non-Muslim. The above mentioned Muslim theological constructs have been dubbed "Holy Hypocrisy" for a reason. That reason is that Muslims are allowed to lie to the non-Muslim.

In short, one can't really know what a Muslim means because of "Holy Hypocrisy".
