In U.S., fear and distrust of Muslims runs deep

Uh, big difference: The Jews were victims just as we're victims of the radical Islamofascists.

There is nothing I would like more than these savages to allow me to worship whomever I want in peace and I'm perfectly willing to allow them to do the same.

The problem is they want to kill me.

You either do not understand that the WOT is a WOC- "war of civilizations", or are not serious yourself.

#60 above---line should read "scenario of internment into his show THAT legitimizes......."

Fear is not the word to describe the feeling I believe most Americans have for Muslims. I believe contempt would better describe the feeling. Muslims have a cowardly strategy of making war against open societies.

If Muslims would take off their masks and come out into the open they would be quickly defeated. It is their ambush type attacks on unarmed women and babies that make them less feared than looked down on.

Remember too that Muslim nations are completely dependent upon the outside world to supply them with the means to shoot off their AK-47s into the air.

Their only home-grown munitions are improvised explosive devices or home-made bombs. Their heavy artillery consists of hand-held weapons and their armored forces are made up of Toyoto pick-up trucks.

Their only real advantage in battle is that they do not fight for survival and care nothing for loss of life, even their own. They use "homan-wave" tactics because of a lack of any kind of military knowhow.

It certainly seems unwise to allow obvious enemy-types to have free fun of our country.

I never even thought of fried pork rinds until Pres G H W Bush said he likes them. Now I pick up a sack of fried pork rinds each time I go food shopping. I don't know why, but they are not popular and I do draw some looks at the checkout. They are most excellent, like bacon lite.

[B. Chezwick]

Absolutely. These people have no business outside their own sand pits. We made the mistake of not taking communism seriously enough; let's not make the same mistake with Islam.

[Conservativegreatgrandma]

How are you going to tell the difference until it's too late. What do you want to do about them?

Where do I get my opinions about Muslims?

Every time they bend over they pass gas.

#32 is a link back to the article. I messed up.

"There are plenty of peaceful Muslims"

Name one, other than yourself of course...

My 'ignorance' about Islam comes from headlines of murder being committed by Muslims all over the world.

Right, and you also must have missed all the Muslim outrage at the atrocities being committed by that small minority who had high-jacked their religion as well.

[Redbob]

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

So, it's not that they're obnoxious scum, it's that the rest of us are "ignorant?"

I'm sorry , but I know all I need to know about the followers of that stone-age belief system (I refuse to term it a "religion" and sully the reputations of genuine religions such as Christianity, Buddhism, etc.)

[brazzaville]

Good afternoon.
"...some of them are doing very evil things, but does that justify treating all Muslims like criminals?"

Jihadists have declared war on the US and most other Muslims do not condemn that declaration. That absolutely justifies viewing all Muslims as potential terrorists in a way that others should not be viewed. It's suicidal to think otherwise.

I won't go beyond that unless pushed into action.

Jews weren't terrorizing people in Germany when they were ordered to wear armbands. The analogy is false.

Excellent point!

[Free Vulcan]

When they refuse to stand up and denounce the hating and the killing, and start identifying and turning in existing cells within the country, then they are complicit.

Got a kid to donate? Got a skyscraper to donate? Thimk dammit!!!

""Because basically what you just did was show me how the German people allowed what happened to the Jews to happen ."

Perhaps Jerry Klien should read what Muzzies themselves say their goals are in America. Jews didn't invade Germany and threaten to take it over and convert everyone to Islam and establish sharia law, and destroy our constitutional republic.

Comparing Muslims in America to Jews in Hitlers Germany is just plain wrong.

The Muslims in America would be the equivelant of Hitlers Armies in America in 1938, setting up and getting ready for war.

Muslims coming into America have an agenda, as spelled out by CAIR. They are not here to co exist, they are here to take over and convert the USA to Islam and establish sharia law.

Klien needs to wake up and quit being a Islamic apoligist, and quit being suckered by the lying Islamic apoligists who are decieving Americans as to what they are and what their blood cult teaches.

[Maverick68]

Which is why Barrack HUSSEIN Obama will never be elected Pres of the USA. I despise when someone ignorantly bashes a religion, so I suggest people not familiar with Islam read the Koran so that they may have plenty of justifiable reasons to distrust Islam. It is a war manual written by a soldier intent on empowering and glorifying himself, nothing more.

[Maverick68]

BTW, I don't fear Islam as much as I fear the PC-Gestapo in this country that refuses to admit who our enemy is and deal with them accordingly.
