''Muslim-Americans are emerging as a voice to be recognized in American society,'' she said. ''I don't think they have power yet. You must first acknowledge you have a right to be part of the discourse. They are working on that now and to some degree they have attained that.'' ''But there are a lot of people who don't want that voice to emerge,''

Muslims? American society? No f-ing way.
"A recent poll found that 42 percent of Muslim voters were Democrats compared with 17 percent Republicans, with 28 percent having no party affiliation. "
one more 9/11 type terrorist attack in America and the only "moving" the Muslims will be doing is back to whatever hellhole they originated from.
Gee, I wonder why? Could it be (in part) because of statements like this?:
"Those who stay in America should be open to society without melting.....If you choose to live here, you have a responsibility to deliver the message of Islam ... Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth."

""I wouldn't want to create the impression that I wouldn't like the government of the United States to be Islamic sometime in the future."
- Ibrahim Hooper (CAIR Spokesperson)
Homo-sexuals? American society? No f-ing way.
Saddam sympathizers? American society? No f-ing way.
Parents prevented from being notified of their teenagers abortion by law? American society? No f-ing way.
A TV Network attacked for providing 'balanced' viewpoints? merican society? No f-ing way.

The story of our country and its mainly passive citizenry.
Islam just cannot survive in a free society....it doesn't work.
G-d help them if they do something else. I'LL go in the streets and start something.
Count me among them, absolutely and permanently.
I am among those who realize that the democratic process, in a free republic, cannot be allowed to be used ultimately to erase the democratic process itself.
I can't fault the sandmaggots for misunderstanding this simple fact. I do fault the remarkable number of ignorant brain-dead Americans who go along with the "gag".
It's called the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. And it sets limits even for the courts. No amount of creative "interpretation" will make those two documents go away, and no amendments can be made to it to allow shari'a.
I don't think Sharia allows that.
The same is true in reverse...A free society cannot survive Islam.....
It can't work. But in the minds of the limited-intelligence animals on two legs, they are fixated on the "democratic" idea. If they all vote to abolish our accustomed Constitutional freedoms, in their simple animal minds that's all it takes.
The behavior of some state supreme courts of recent tends to encourage that sort of cultural and political cognitive dissonance.
Am currently reading As Europe Slept and what an eye opener!
While Europe Slept: How Radical Islam is Destroying the West from Within,
by Bruce Bawer.
New York: Doubleday, 2006. $23.95, 247pp., ISBN 0-385-51472-7
Bawer (Stealing Jesus, A Place at the Table) isn't the first to raise the alarm about Europe's self-destructive appeasement of radical Islam. Tony Blankley covered similar ground in last year's The West's Last Chance. And, Ralph Peters considers—before rudely dismissing—Europe's latest follies in his wider-ranging New Glory. The problem of Europe's impending cultural suicide, however, is crucial enough to merit considerable analysis, and Bawer brings a unique perspective to the task.
A native New Yorker, Bawer moved to Europe in 1998 and has lived there (Netherlands and Norway) since. He also has traveled extensively throughout the continent and talked to scores of Europeans. He admires European culture as only an expatriate can and fervently hopes it can be saved.
The story is familiar by now but deserves repeating. Like a Trojan horse, radical Islam has slipped into Europe and threatens to destroy it from within. Muslims, who make up a substantial (and rapidly growing) minority in Western Europe, often refuse to assimilate and are contemptuous of European democracy and values. European elites, blinded by a politically correct, ironclad multiculturalism, compound the problem by tolerating Muslim intolerance as a cultural prerogative.
In their blind rush to appease their Muslim minorities, European governments not only overlook intolerance but also female genital mutilation, forced marriages, and other physical abuse of women. The problem is that appeasement only encourages worse behavior.
Bawer finds several causes for this self-destructive "denial and appeasement." There's the multiculturalism of the elite, of course, that refuses to admit that all cultural practices are not equal. Then, there's Western Europe's "vicious, irrational, and twisted . . . American hatred" and instinctive anti-Semitism. "Muslims are more popular than Jews" among Western European elites, Bawer claims.
Will Europe wake up to the danger posed by radical Islam in time or continue to drift toward Eurabia? Bawer admits that recent warnings—the Madrid and London terrorist bombings and the murder of Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh—seem to have done little to shake Europe awake. But, he remains hopeful because he seems to believe that the U.S. will ultimately be lost without Western Europe. He offers no compelling reason for such a conclusion though.
Peters, who notes many of the same symptoms of European morbidity in New Glory, comes to a radically different conclusion. Dismissing Europe as beyond help, Peters argues, "Our security does not lie in preserving a loathsome Eurocentric past, but in building a better future elsewhere." For Peters that elsewhere lies mainly in Latin America, Africa, and the Indian Ocean.
Regardless of who is right about Europe's future and its impact on America, it is an important, perhaps crucial, issue that needs to be explored and debated. This is first and foremost Europe's problem and they have to deal with it. If they refuse to be roused from their slumber, then so be it.
Peters wrote as a critic of modern Europe, but Bawer writes as a friend and a neighbor. If Europe won't listen to him, it might not wake up in time to save itself. And, unlike the last time Europeans ignored the rise of fascists within (the subject of the late John F. Kennedy's While England Slept), the Americans won't be able to bail them out this time.

I understand the point you're making about incompatibility, but Islam actually survives just fine in a free society - in fact, it finds considerable shelter there. Certainly, nobody there will act to drive it away, or in any way limit its growth or influence. Why, that might hurt somebody's feelings.
Once Islam becomes a large enough presence in any land where a free society has permitted it to take root and flourish, it is that free society which discovers, belatedly it seems, that it cannot survive in close proximity to Islam.
We refuse to heed the lessons of history (and recent events, too) at our own significant peril.
