I think these tales of Islam trying to conquer the world are mostly "boogy-man" stories.

Look at the hijackers from 9/11. While in this country they spent all kinds of money on booze and women. All strictly prohibited by Islam.

In my opinion this is a criminal enterprise using religious beliefs to build it's army.

For example. To build an army costs money. But by using religion, you can easily persuade people to join a cause, thus they not only come willingly, but will often donate what wealth they have.

Islam is a perfect vehicle for this aim. Just like Hitler used the scapegoat of the Jews to motivate his people, Islam too uses the scapegoat of the Jews, Isreal and the so-called "non-believers" to justify it's atrocities.

Look at where Islam has controlled countries, such as Afghanistan. What was their main export? Drugs. Look at Iran. They are just as corrupt or worse then previous regimes.

Religion is a powerful motivator, especially for the poor and illiterate.

Like communissim the problem Islam faces is whenever Western ideals and lifestyles are experienced, people will naturally choose it over the barbaric facism of Isalm.

People will, and have chosen freedom and democracy whenever they could.

As Western philosphies spread, Islam retreats. and that's probably the greatest concern to those who preach Isalm.

They probably see this as their last stand and criminals are using this fear to build their enterprises.

Muslims believe to die in jihad is instant passage into paradise. Unlike non-martyres their is no final judgement so why not live it up while you can.

Not necesssarily so. Soldiers are allowed all the broads on the side that they want. Mohammedism provides for three-day marriages so the screwing around will not be adultery.

It is time for you to take some time and actually study the religion. Because if you are not a muslim it has only 2 options for you....death or enslavement.

If you are a muslim leaving the religion is a death sentence.

Oh ,stop with that crap that they couldn't be Muslims because they were at strip joints.

Smaller sins are forgiven for the greater cause of Jihad.

Anything is permissible to the Shahids.

Plus, they were undercover. It's called blending in. Pretty basic undercover stuff. Act normal. Hell, they even hung out in an oyster bar.

It a religious/ideological/political movement that will use criminals as needed.
