... I think Sam and I and Ayaan Hirsi Ali and Salman Rushdie and everyone who is basically making the same point, I think we all feel frustrated because I think we feel like the people who are arguing with us are not listening.
We’re liberals! We’re liberals. We’re not crazy tea-baggers, y’know, and so it’s kind of hard to be making this case — based on facts, based on polling, I think based on what everybody really knows… I mean, do the people arguing with us, would they really open a lesbian art gallery in Ramallah? [Laughs] Or Karachi? Or Cairo? I don’t know if they would back up what they’re saying with actions.
We are not bigoted people. On the contrary, we’re trying to stand up for the principles of liberalism! And so, y’know, I think we’re just saying we need to identify illiberalism wherever we find it in the world, and not forgive it because it comes from [a group] people perceive as a minority...

Ironically, the liberals just parrot the mantra initiated by Bush that Islam is” a religion of peace.”
Two idiots floundering around for a cogent thought.
ISLAM RELIGION OF THE SWORD
At the beginning, when they were a small minority, Mohammed preached respect for other religions condemning forced conversion to Islam; those are the parts of the Koran used by those who falsely proclaim that Islam is a “religion of peace”.
What they fail to disclose is that In Islamic tradition, affirmed by many scholars, there is the doctrine of “abrogation”, which states that later revelation to Mohammed supersedes prior revelations, and the Koranic verses ordering Muslims to fight and slay infidels, Christians and Jews came after those admonishing Muslims to live with non-believers in peace and without religious compulsion.
It is a well known fact the bloody history of Islam, but Obama, and a gutless media, still call it a “religion of peace”, even though that in the name of Allah more than 220 millions infidels have been slaughtered by Muslim, since the prophet of Allah beheaded in 627 AD over 700 hundred men and the pubescent boys and enslaved the women and children. In doing this, he wiped entirely the last remaining major tribe of Jews in Medina: the Qurayza.
In conclusion: You cannot separate “terror” from Islam.
“The issue of “terror” is a further aspect of this same understanding. Many outside Islam seek to separate “terror” and “Islam” as if they were, in their usage, independent or even opposed ideas. This latter view is almost impossible seriously to maintain in the light of Islamic history and the text of the Qur’an itself.”
“The Islamic State and the broader jihadist movements throughout the world that agree with it are, I think, correct in their basic understanding of Islam. Plenty of evidence is found, both in the long history of early Muslim military expansion and in its theoretical interpretation of the Qur’an itself, to conclude that the Islamic State and its sympathizers have it basically right.”
The Hindu Kush, seventy-five thousand square miles between Afghanistan and Pakistan, was populated by Hindus until approximately 1000 AD and the Muslim invasions. An estimated 60 million Hindus were murdered by Muslims over a thousand year reign, and Hindu Kush is the Muslim name for the region. It means “Hindu Killer.”
Athiests are like zombies, they’re already dead, they just don’t know it yet.
And he will be wondering why they don’t get it.
Yeah, Bill. And you can open up a lesbian art gallery here in my backyard, and guess what?
Neither I nor anyone from my church is going to show up and try to cut your head off. We won’t like it, but neither will we do you any harm.
So back-off of all your constant vitriolic whining about tea party conservatives!
The blood of liberals must water the PC tree before they will see that the Moslems really really really do want them all dead...
I met a woman yesterday whose grandfather was from Peru..he did immigrate..
but shes so PC theres little hope for her..
she said something about the Koran that made me answer that the Koran says Moslems are to kill all non-Moslems Jews and Christians..
up to then a nice lady she screeched as though she had been scoalded..No the Koran did not say that..
I stood my ground Oh yes it does..explain the beheadings (I did not want to listen to how sweet and innocent and misunderstood the widdle Moslems eare..)
She quickly said Oh yes there are lots of interpretations of those verses..she told me and a couple of people standing near her..
I told them that in the Arabic original as Mohammad wrote them the verses say that Moslems must kill all non-Moslems..meaning all Jews and Christians..
she backed down then..
Yes, we have to save the worst job ever that is giving people black lung again.....I personnaly KNOW that coal mining is one of the safest, most regulated, most expensive careers in America. Go tell a fourth generation miner it is the worst job, ever. He’ll kick your ass to Hollywood and back again. This is their LIFE, just like Daddy, Grandaddy and the Grandaddy before him. We all can’t have pretend jobs in a pretend set with pretend talents. Somebody got to do the JOB.
Oh, balls!
You're reading too much into it /snigger
There. I fixed it.
FUBM!!!
i think both of them should go to their halloween part dressed as beheaded journalists and hope they win best costume for accuracy.
Bill Manher is a Lefty, but not totally insane. He understands that, as a Jew, he is at risk should Muslims get more power in the US. In France and other places where Muslims have more power than they have here, Jews are in fear. Maher understands that, and understands that, while HE may have good personal security, he has plenty of Jewish relatives and friends who don't.
“Tea-baggers” are sodomites; members of the Tea Party are defenders of the Constitution.
Maybe Maher will volunteer to star in one of those muzzie short films regarding close shaving below the chin line.
Love how he says “we aren’t bigoted people” and then goes on to disparage “tea-baggers”. Yeah, no bigoted at all...
