That's not a valid analogy. All Muslims aren't "rattlesnakes."

If they believe and intend to abide by the Qu'ran and Hadith -- they are rattlesnakes (see my homepage)

If they are not willing to follow what the Qu'ran and Hadith say -- then they are not Muslim

Several American Muslims interviewed on the subject of prejudice over the past few weeks said ignorance was at the core of the problem.

When a Leftist or a Muslim calls you "ignorant", what he's really saying is "you have not been sufficiently indoctrinated"

Who knew which of the resident Japanese wouldn't pass information or coordinate a population attack? It's real easy for you, in hindsight, to know there were no attacks on this country, but the people then certainly didn't know

The Japanese managed to seize two Aleutian Islands early in the war. If the Japanese had managed to install an airstrip from which to refuel planes, all it would have taken to enable jap bomber access to much of the West Coast would be to have a Jap agent in the Northwest show up with a truck full of fuel on an isolated road that could be used on a landing strip.

"In short, by way of our leadership we have agreed to paying for Arab oil supplies with our hard cash and Muslim immigration within our nations."

So, we've surrendered to the barbarians and let them into the city.

It certainly explains the submissive posture of Washington DC before Islam.

The war in Iraq has contributed to such perceptions.

...and maybe the fact that the only culture I know of that is mass-producing suicidal, homocidal maniacs is Islam?
Gee, d'ya think?!

Hell, they cant even get along with themselves. Sunnis, Shittes etc. When they take over the western world they will end up trying to kill each other.
This religion is nothing more than a big hypocrisy..

"Roughly a quarter of those polled said they would not want to live next door to a Muslim"

Why is this remarkable? 85% of liberals don't want a born-again christian living next door.

"A poll carried out by the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), an advocacy group, found that for one in three Americans, the word Islam triggers negative connotations such as "war," "hatred" and "terrorist." The war in Iraq has contributed to such perceptions. "

Maybe 911 contributed to that perception. Ya think?
