I am quite aware of the statistics you quote. I am also quite aware of the genocide commited against Christians in many of the lands you mention including Sudan most recently and other nations of the middle east over the hundreds of years. I am not sure what relevance these statistics have to the discussion of spies from within the muslim network of terror. And terror it is, from its inception - mohamed appealed to the baser instincts of the arabs and this false ideology is as dangerous as imperialistic Marxism leninism etc. ever was. I base my comments on my personal knowledge of muslems both here in the USA and abroad. It seems to me that you are wishfully hoping for the reasonable muslims to aid in their own destruction - won't happen becusae there is no reason within the muslim ideology. Read my post about divide and conquer. That strategy will help.

We're probably not going to reach a consensus.

You see Islam as a monolith. It isn't.

There are fanatical Muslims. Also, there are Muslims who don't believe everything they are told by clerics (indeed dislike clerics), don't accept every tenet of the Koran, don't attend the Mosque, oppose the adoption of Muslim law and fundamentalism, let alone Al-Qaeda, and don't hate the U.S.

Ever traveled in the Moslem world? There are places we wouldn't survive 15 minutes as Americans. There are other places where we would be totally safe, indeed given sanctuary, if ever threatened.

The U.S. government is already altering the politics of the U.S. Muslim movement through homeland defense. Most Muslims came to the U.S. to improve their quality of life, not to wage holy war. Local Muslim opinion is moving to the left as they see radicals being incarcerated or harassed. As a marginal minority, they are dependent on protection by the U.S. government. What do you think was the primary intelligence source regarding the Buffalo Al-Qaeda cell? Jerry Falwell? It was local Muslims.
