I realize that Pres. Bush is just doing his P.C. part for his cause, however I think that Robertson & Falwell got it right. Not only do the Muslims feel that way about Jews but they hate us Christians just as much, it's time to call the Spade Black. It is what it is and quite frankly they hate our guts, wake up America.

"Falwell, in a recent interview with CBS' "60 Minutes," said he had concluded from reading Muslim and non-Muslim writers that the Prophet Muhammad "was a violent man, a man of war." "I think Muhammad was a terrorist," the conservative Baptist minister said.

Muslims were outraged. An Iranian cleric called for his death while a general strike called to protest his comments in Bombay, India, turned into a riot, and five people were killed. Falwell later apologized"

By their fruits ye shall know them. Falwell was correct. He should NOT have apologized. The attitude of Bush and the average American is beyond belief.

Bush, on this subject, is either :

a) naive

b) mis-informed

c) trying to maintain as positive a position with our Islamic "allies" (Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, etc.) as possible

d) trying to avoid implementation of the "oil weapon",

e) all of the above.

We have carried political correctness here to an absurd level. Islam is as legitimate as the Thugee Cult of ancient India.

GWB needs to put in a call to Pootie Poot. It seems Putin has a better concept of the clash of civilizations than our leader does.

West in mortal danger from Islam, says Putin

Yes Yes. It is divide and conquer, triangulation... what ever.

Bush: It is a religion of warfare!

Bingo bump.

Either George won't tell the truth or he doesn't know the truth. Either option is inexcusable.

If our president, our media, and our population is not going to wake up and realize that the problem is not Moslems, it is Islam! At least the way it is preached of late. The fanatic mullahs and stupid clerics, in an effort to strengthen their positions, decided to add emphasis to the violent part of the Koran, and reduce emphasis on any tolerant or accommodating verses of the Koran.

A Moslem that follows the current teaching of the Koran closely will become, by definition, a rapist, and a killer in the name of Allah.

Bush's remarks came on the same day the Council on American-Islamic Relations urged Bush to repudiate anti-Islamic rhetoric, citing comments by Falwell and others.

I would tell CAIR to kiss my *ss, but I wouldn't trust them behind me.

WOW!! CBN news this morn, just had a GREAT comment by Robertson and his son over this PEACEFUL RELIGION and W comments he made about Mr. Robertson! A MUST SEE!! Robertson says, that the Koran states very clearly that THE JEWS MUST BE EXTERMINATED. It is quoted as saying that Jews are apes and swine that must be exterminated, wiped off the map. There is a muslim school in DC, just around the corner of the WH, that teaches these principles to their students. THIS IS VERY SCARY! Please watch the RE-RUNS or web on to CBN.com!! Mr. Robertson, challenged news reporters as well as American Jews to dig into the Koran and find out for themselves what this WICKED book says about the Jews and christians. A MUST SEE!!

Bush has to keep these Islamoterroists under control until they can all be interned in the mountains of New Mexico.

I don't mind Bush saying it, just as long as he doesn't believe it. When in war it's always smart to decieve your enemy.

From a forthcoming publication elsewhere:

There are people in this world who are determined to remain oblivious to evil in an, occasionally desperate, attempt to believe in goodness. They maintain a nearly deliberate blindness to evil. They will insist on leading, indeed pulling, other people and sometimes entire nations over a cliff in attempts to demonstrate a moral lesson in adherence to belief in ecstatic delirium over reality. They are dangerous. They make evil possible in their refusal to admit it exists and deal with it appropriately. America has a number of them in one subcultural axis within the radical left and elsewhere. Islam also indoubtedly has its share of them. The craziness and crazies of the Muslim world crouch down and hide behind them and their sweet hopeful sincerity while they gain power and await their day to exert retribution. ment. The Mohammadans will kill you in the name of Allah. If you defend yourself they call it oppression and repression. The radical left will kill you in the name of social justice. If you defend yourself they call it oppression and repression. They believe it and make it stick with media support as well as support in out educational institutions.

George Bush is pulling us over that cliff as surely as you read these words. He is destroying this nation. He is more dangerous than the Clintons because people believe otherwise.

"Kill the disbelievers wherever we find them" (Koran 2:191)

"Remember Allah inspired the angels: I am with you. Give firmness to the believers. I will instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers: you smite them above their necks and smite all their fingertips off of them." (Koran, 8:12) For newcomers, smite means chop off.

With five to eight million of the "enemy"
already in America, waiting for the call for jihad,
the stakes of this game are too high.

I don't want to overreact to the President's careful statements,
but saying nothing was bad enough...

The truth shall make you free.
