Cain: Majority of US Muslims share extremist views
The Hill ^ | 11/14/11 | Justin Sink

Herman Cain said that he believes a majority of American Muslims share extremist views in an interview published on Monday.

In an interview that included a few eyebrow-raising comments, Cain's exchange about American Muslims may get the most attention.

"I have had one very well-known Muslim voice say to me directly that a majority of Muslims share the extremist views," Cain said in an interview with GQ.

Islam is Islam. I agree with Cain.

Daring to say what needs to be said...

The Muslim experience and The American Experience are incompatible.

Moslems who come here from majority moslem nations have a very difficult time adapting. There are some fundamentals we believe in deeply that they reject. One is the elective principle ~ that we the people should elect our leaders. They believe God will reveal them to us in terms of their apparent strength or power.

“In March, Cain made waves when he said that if he were elected, he would not feel “comfortable” in appointing Muslims to his Cabinet”.

...therefore, I’m a Cainiac!

Cain: Majority of US Muslims share extremist views

I agree, except imo he left out the word "vast". Still, this is gonna leave a mark.

And of coourse, he is RIGHT. And not just American Muslims - ALL Muslims as the Koran expresses an “extremist” view.

Just ONE MORE reason to vote for Cain!!!! :)

I know he’s going to get a lot of heat for saying that but I happen to agree with him.

It’s like Freeper Travis McGee (I believe it’s him) says, “Moderate Muslims are the Trojan Horse for the extremists” or something like that. I’ll ping him and he can correct me.

Good for Cain. He is saying what most already know. They either share the Sharia view themnselves, or are so afraid of those that do that they are muted and frightened into not opposing it.

This may be un-PC...but we need to get away from PC because it is what the liberals and progressives use to try and mute and quiet the rest of us.

IMHO, Islam, as taught and practiced by MOhammed and the major clerics since, is a repressive, brutal, totalitarian politcal order masquerading and hiding behind religion.

Well, I certainly agree with him.

But notice how the headline completely distorts what Cain said. Completely.

Compare it with what the article itself says that he said:

"I have had one very well-known Muslim voice say to me directly that a majority of Muslims share the extremist views," Cain said in an interview with GQ.

Cain is simply quoting what a Muslim said to him about his own religion. Yes, presumably he agrees with it, but THE MUSLIM SAID IT.

This is very similar to what Geert Wilders does with Fitna. Every leftist on the planet has accused Wilders of being a hateful bigot. But all that Fitna does is show you what Muslims themselves say and do about their religion.

Typical of The Hill to twist it, so their lib readers can all start chanting about how hateful Cain is. No, you jerks, it's the Muslims themselves who are happy to tell us how hateful Islam is. More than happy, if you listen to them talking to each other rather than lying for the liberal press.

The cultural marxists will sneeringly poo-poo naming evil, perhaps even when they’re marched in front of walls and shot - by the very evil they refused to name.

Ping for the list of statistics that shows what happens to countries when the Muslim population increases.

Someone always posts that list.

The only eyebrows lifting are those of the leftwing media stooges. To the rest of us this is simple common sense.
