You keep seeing this as a racial issue when it is clearly an ideological issue.

I'm not seeing it as a racial issue any more than the Japanese-American internment that you defend were "a racial issue." The facts are clear: Al-Qa'ida is actively seeking recruits among American-born whites with Christian names just as Imperial Japan was actively seeking recruits among Japanese immigrants who were naturalized American citizens. You argue that the latter case justified sending all West Coast residents of Japanese descent to concentration camps. By that same logic, why shouldn't we intern all native-born white people with Christian names?

There is no real difference in goal between Mein Kampf and the Koran.

I'll just let this flag of idiocy flap in the breeze.

It does not. Anymore than the banning German and Japanese "patriotic" organizations did in WWII.

Shipping Americans off to concentration camps based on ethnic and/or religious background is not the same as banning groups expressly formed to give aid and comfort to declared enemy states.

All billion Muslims live in CONUS? Since when?

That's not what I said. Do you only want to kill the Muslims that live in the continental US?

Not when some "Americans" hold allegiance to a foreign power - the Ummah

The "Ummah" is not a state anymore than "Christiandom" is.

Once they have a larger percentage of the population, the violence will start in earnest - just as in Europe.

A similar argument was made against recognizing African Americans' civil rights in the 1960s. Europe is not the United States and the United States is not Europe. One reason why there is a Muslim underclass (with the accompanying underclass violence) in Europe is because European states generally afford fewer political rights to their immigrants and are generally more racist than Americans. Witness the BNP.

Your ideological friends would have me assume the position of dhimmi and "submit".

I am an American and I submit to no one.

Sorry, but I'm not willing to do that or see my country fall that way.

You left your country long ago, EPWR. Whether you are a legal American citizen or not, it is clear that you have nothing but disdain for our civilization, our laws, and our people.

"The facts are clear: Al-Qa'ida is actively seeking recruits among American-born whites with Christian names just as Imperial Japan was actively seeking recruits among Japanese immigrants who were naturalized American citizens. "

I think you've just made my point as to why we should profile by *religion* in this case.

"I'll just let this flag of idiocy flap in the breeze. "

Truth hurts, doesn't it?

"That's not what I said. Do you only want to kill the Muslims that live in the continental US? "

So, internment equals execution to you?

"Shipping Americans off to concentration camps based on ethnic and/or religious background is not the same as banning groups expressly formed to give aid and comfort to declared enemy states. "

That pretty much describes every mosque.

"One reason why there is a Muslim underclass (with the accompanying underclass violence) in Europe is because European states generally afford fewer political rights to their immigrants and are generally more racist than Americans. Witness the BNP."

This is BS. If anything, Europe has bent over backwards even more for these "immigrants".

"I am an American and I submit to no one. "

Tell that to your friends if they reach ascendancy. Somehow, I doubt they'll spare you.

"You left your country long ago, EPWR. Whether you are a legal American citizen or not, it is clear that you have nothing but disdain for our civilization, our laws, and our people."

This is seriously amusing. You defend the enemy of my civilization and have the gall to claim I'm the one doing that. I really don't think you qualify with the "our". You do not speak for the United States or Americans not named Kerry and Pelosi.

So, what Muslim country are you from? Let me guess - exchange student?
