It is pretty amazing when the Iraqis, the Somalis, the Ethiopians, etc. mostly Muslims, are fighting the radical muslims and some losing their lives and some bigots and kneejerkers here on FR ignore that fact.

Muslims have managed to give us a few reasons to be suspicious!

I never said all Muslims were killers.

I just said that incident makes me suspect until I learn otherwise about the person. The history of Muslims and terrorism certainly does NOT give me reason to trust them as a whole until I hear otherwise about a specific individual.

Yes, there are. Although they are mostly silent about it!

your position is clear and the constitution disagrees with you.

I should hope it's clear, I tried to make it abundantly so. Where in the Constitution does it say that in a time of war its ok to have members of your enemy represent you?

Rockin, you are far too kind.

He is working on his legacy at this point and I am losing respect rapidly.

That's because you're fairly new here. The Nuke Mecca Crowd's bloodlust will never be sated by mere facts.

Christians can't go back in time and fix our mistakes. This doesn't absolve Islam from being hijacked and used for the purposes it is.

Yes they have. I never said I wouldn't trust a Muslim, just that I have to learn a little about them first. This guy has been on our side for a very long time, therefore I'm fine with him.

Oh, wow. Sounds reminiscent of Obama saying, "I did cocaine." Yawn.

Our CIA helped Masood as much as they could given the stubborness of Clinton and his cabinet to ever stand up and take a chance. And yet he couldn't be protected.

Berger and Albright just sat on their hands. I find their inaction a greater injustice to mankind than any quibbling over Masood and poppies. The man paid with his life trying to wrestle his country from the Taliban.

IF he had succeeded, the world would be completely different today. It is a shame that he was assassinated.

I'm continuously angered by Clinton's search for a legacy. What did he DO that actually had a positive impact on the world? NOTHING.

Using your formula...I guess all men are suspect and not to be trusted, because we had assassinations carried out by men.

And guess what? Christianity got out of the dark ages when it was determined that such behavior was wrong.

Your description makes him sound unconfirmable, now that the 'rats are in charge.

Less than one percent of famous men are killers.

About 90% of famous Muslims are.

Do the math.

You're as bad as cops afraid to say a murder suspect is black for fear of being racist.

that wasn't the issue. you said that you didn't want muslims in any leadership position in our government. this is clearly in violation of article 6 section 3:

The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.

Thank you for showing me where it says that, perhaps its time to Amend the Constitution again.
