Is the tea-party movement Islamophobic?
First Amendment Center ^ | August 1, 2010 | Charles C. Haynes

Posted on 08/09/2010 1:56:57 PM PDT by ZULU

The current wave of anti-mosque protests around the country represents a new threat to the religious freedom of Muslims in America — a threat directed not just at terrorists who act in the name of Islam, but at all Muslims and Islam itself.

Incidents of discrimination and bias aimed at Muslim Americans have been rising since the 9/11 terrorist attacks. But anti-Muslim rhetoric has taken an ominous turn in recent months as a growing number of political and community leaders — some with tea-party affiliations — have begun warning of a “Muslim takeover” of America.

Rational people tend to be a bit tetchy around irrational people, especially irrational people who view homicide as a proof of virtue.

No, but the anti-tea-party movement wants to abolish the separation between Islam and state...

If by “Islamophobic” you mean very concerned about zealots who live to impose a psychotic, barbaric “religion” of murder, hatred and thuggery on a free people...then YES. We are indeed Islamophobic.

Post a video of Danny Pearl’s murder and ask if that was an illustration of Muslim religious freedom?

I don’t fear Muslims nearly as much as I fear public officials that bend over backwards to accomodate Muslims.

Islam is a political system masquerading as a religion. It leveraged off the Judeo-Christian Bible but was used by a conquering warlord to bring theocratic rule to lands.

Muslims believe in a concept of “muslim territories”. What kind of “tolerant” view is that in an age where universally free people believe in a freedom of religion?

Why have segregated cities under Islam? Why have a total prohibition on other religious texts?

As the Saudis fund Islamic imperialism and the establishment of mosques and training centers in the West, we are right to challenge this concept of “mosque and state” that seeks to usher in Sharia Law.

Sedition does not have to be tolerated. Those who seek to overthrow our government are not allies. Those who seek to applaud the 9-11 jihadists and the Islamic conquest of Spain are not good guys.

Islam as a religion is free to believe whatever it wants. Islam as a political system is not protected. You can discriminate against Republicans, Democrats, Neonazis, and Communists all you want in this nation.

Send “Mr.” Haynes a message expressing your assessment of his elitist attitude towards a homicidal theocratic cult masquerading as a “religion”.

Islam is a murdering cult started by a child-molesting murderer. There is everything to fear of a cult that preaches it savage dominance.
