John Kerry Says U.S. Treats Muslims Better Than Britain and That's Why U.K. Faces Extremism
Newsweek ^ | June 5, 2017 | Graham Lanktree

Two leading Democrats who have had roles tackling global Islamic extremism believe one of the key reasons the U.K. has experienced multiple attacks is because of how the country treats Muslims.

In separate interviews on Sunday former Secretary of State John Kerry and Vice Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee Mark Warner said that there have been fewer acts of domestic terror committed by Muslims in the United States because it has historically been more welcoming to Muslim immigrants....

U.S. Treats Muslims Better Than Britain and That's Why U.K. Faces Extremism

It's simple math. Muslims are one percent of the U.S. population, and five percent of England's population. Plus, it's a lot easier for European muslims to travel to ISIS zones to complete their radicalization. Duh.

Too bad Kerry and Brennan were chasing Trump, and let Orlando, Boston and San Bernardino explode in our faces.

He is lecturing the UK after the his record. Isis is the JV.

With an explanation such as this, he deserves to BE the target.

Texans would suggest JFK travel to Irving, Texas to get a taste of how mooselimbs are treated. When churches there opened their doors to the mosques, offering fellowship, help, foods, etc. The foreigners made their own rules and demanded they be obeyed. These consisted of what foods would be permissible, what words could be used, even the time and day. Christian churches, finally had enough - they no longer reach out. NITWIT, it would be pleasurable to find him face to face with one of these savage mobs who wouldn’t think twice about freeing him from his head.

The one reason for our relative safety is that we are an armed populace. Period.

That's a factor, to be sure, but it's also true that America has a moderating influence on extremists. I'm not saying that this effect is sufficient to eliminate Islam extremists, but having the freest society on earth does help, because people see that the average everyday American is not some kind of demon.

In America, most people want to live their lives as they please, and be left alone if they please. Most people instinctively want this.

In addition to the deterrent of an armed populace, being in the land of the Free does have a positive effect, IMHO.

Having said that, hoever, there can be no doubt that what rigelkentaurus said about Muslim "critical mass" is true.

This is a major reason that keeping Muslim immigration to a bare minimum is an ideal policy for defending our homeland against the threat of radical Islam.

Is London really approaching 15% Muslim population? That's remarkable. I'd say Europe has a growing problem on its hands, and there's no reason the US should follow suit with such a dangerous "open door" policy with respect to immigration.

Making sure that immigrants assimilate—and are motivated to—is a critically important concept which is neglected by the naive Progressive crowd, who seem to think that singing "Kumbayah" together is sufficient to keep the boogeymen away.

Those who don't want to assimilate should not be welcome as immigrants.

I, for one, can't wait for the massive smackdown which is about to be administered to the Democrats by the US Supreme Court, when they finally uphold the President's immigration EO's...
