[from occupied ga]

Couldn’t be because of the terrorism around the world linked to muslims. Or maybe it’s their barbaric way of treating people they don’t like. Or maybe it’s just the fact that they consider us the “great Satan” Nah couldn’t have anything to do with any of that.

[magslinger]

Because they have been at war with us for over two hundred years?

Islam rejects the rights of:
1) women
2) all non-Arabs, especially blacks
3) Christians and other non-Muslims
Also:
Rejects nine of the Ten Commandments (everything except to worship God)
Is effectively an organized criminal network which gives its top leaders complete authority over everybody and everything.
“By their fruits you will know them.”

[MamaTexan]

Americans had an "unfavorable" view of Islam by a margin of 53%-42%, with 31% holding a strongly negative view

Believing you can cleanse your soul by sacrificing innocents.... believing someones sex determines whether or not they're 'property'...... believing people who are not of your 'religion' are less than human

makes people think of you 'unfavorably'.

Gee! Whoda thunk?

I never liked muzzies, but flying loaded airliners into skyscrapers didn’t do anything to endear me to them.

[jagusafr]

I don’t dislike muslims, I hate Islam as a tool of Satan. Big difference. HUGE difference.

[wyowolf]

islame i get... but buddists?? they seem pretty harmless if a bit kooky...

[MNDude]

I once read an editorial in the Asian Times and they were predicting that about 50 years in the future, Europe would be predominately Muslim, headed for a clash with China which would then be predominately Christian.

[expatpat]

We don’t like them because they want to subjugate us. I know it’s irrational, but there it is..../sarc

[RockinRight]

Why don't Americans like Muslims?

February 26, 1993

Just a couple examples...

[RockinRight]

Same reason we don’t like murderers or rapists...

As a religous movement, I have no problem with Islam. As a political movement, I’m completely against it in the same way I’m against socialism. The problem is, the lines between ‘religion’ and ‘political’ are very obscure in the Muslim world. In fact, you can make a case that Islam is completely political having nothing to do with faith. That’s the beauty and genious of this movement. Seriously, the KKK was famous for wrapping itself in religion but, reasonable folks stood back and said, “I dont think so.” Are the Black Panthers a religous movment? What if they said they were?

Islam has found the perfect grey area to exist in in our society. They are neither political nor religous but, they are both political and religous, too. They wrap themselves in the freedom of religion, protecting them from criticism yet, they are truly political in nature...able and often calling for violence as they see necessary. there is no doubt they would use the Mosque to openly criticize democracy and freedom while promoting Sharia law.

I’m just saying, this is a sticky-wicket for America. We all believe in the constitution yet, it is not a suicide pact either. If they insist on building a Mosque and tweaking 90% of the country then, I say we build a Pig farm, a Synagogue, and a Planned Parenthood Center next door. Plus, an adult book store/strip club should be built across the street. We can play this silly game, too.

[vaudine]

Let me count the ways:

9-11

Sharia law

Treatment of women

history of trying to conquer every nation they infiltrate and impose their mores

Islam hasn't show much of thier MSM advertised trait of a "peaceful religion". In fact, we haven't seen much of an indication that it is even a religion; it's rather a cult, or even an international Gang.

Assuming we don't "like" because we're not lining up to join their "religion" is stupid. Islam is far eastern communism at best. Their laws and customs are ruthless and cruel...total domination.

Some Americans join them...the radicals who hate America, lots of lost souls in prisons, and phoney presidents. But by and large looking at the long list of atrocities committed by muslim men between the ages of 16 and 49...there are some pretty good reasons to NOT like muslims.

[anoldafvet]

Because I belong to the Tea Party, which makes me a Bigot. (sarc/off)

[lonestar]

I don’t like anybody who wants me dead.

[padre35]

Of all the Bravo Sierra, “Americans” there are over 300 million of us, line up with many principles of the Islamic Faith, respect for Family, Education, hard work, industriousness.

Americans however, and the majority of Muslims in the US do not align themselves with cut throat terrorists.

[Hoodat]

Gee, I have no idea why anyone wouldn't like muslims . . .

[puppypusher]

Could it be that a group of Islamic terrorist murdered a Americans when all they were doing was going to work.

We don’t have to like uncivilized savages.

[Texas Eagle]

Well, you have to admit, the author makes a great point.

Muzzies don't seem to have a problem with other faiths building places of worship whereever they want in Saudi Arabia, Iran, etc.

We're all familiar with the Cathedral that's being built in Mecca are we not?
