The majority of Muslims do not live in Saudi Arabia, Yemen, or the Sudan.

It's beside the point. It's not about where the majority lives, but whom they followAnd since the center of Islam has been hijacked by radicals, the rest will soon follow. See, as of today, Saudi Arabia Wahhabis decide what is "true" Islam and what isn't. How can good Muslims tolerate evil people ruling them? It's like Hitler becoming a Pope!!! Do you understand? When I see all Muslims out on the street, asking for "regime change" in SA, then I'll recognize Islam as a religion. Until then it's a political cover for conquest and terrorism.

Right.

But let's be clear here. The deceivers claim that Islam is fighting crusaders. That is absolutely false. The West is not a CHRISTIAN culture. Especially not Europe. Which is strange that Islam is at odds with America. If anything Europe is the bastion of immorality and sexual deviancy. Islam is fighting against secular culture - which divides state from religion and the legal system, and allows for freedom of association (except for liberals that are trying to destroy it).

And lets be clear about the Crusades. I am willing to concede that the Crusades were misguided - especially since Catholics killed as many Orthodox Christians as they did Moslems. But the Islamic threat was real. Thank God for Charles Martel for stopping Islam in Spain. And centuries later for the defenders of Vienna that stopped the Turkish horde at the gates. If you believe liberals, Islam was an innocent victim of Christian oppression. Like Bolshevism, Islam was from the start, and internationalist movement. Meaning all men must become Moslems or submit to their rule.

"It's beside the point. It's not about where the majority lives, but whom they follow."

The vast majority do not follow Wahhabism.

"See, as of today, Saudi Arabia Wahhabis decide what is "true" Islam and what isn't."

Tell that to Turkey, or to India, or to China, or to the largest population of Muslims in the world residing in Indonesia. Now, if Western governments give that power to Wahhabism, then those Muslims effectively rejecting Wahhabism will feel marginalized, and perhaps would fall under Wahhabi rule.

" How can good Muslims tolerate evil people ruling them?"

Well...how did Russians allow themselves to be ruled by Communists for nearly a century?

How did Nazis rise to power in Germany?

How has Fidel Castro hung on to power?

It's not that the people are inherently evil, or not good, but rather that the power wielded by these extremistsover them is great.

"When I see all Muslims out on the street, asking for "regime change" in SA, then I'll recognize Islam as a religion."

When I see all Americans out in the streets, asking for Islam to be bannished from the nation, then I will believe that Americans want that to happen.

Hold the standard firm for all involved.
