Facism isn't really an accurate description of radical Islam. It's more a philosophy and life of nihilism.

Islamic Nihilism would be a better term.

Personally, I think we are at war with satan and his minions who call themselves Muslim.

Terrorism the fruit, islam the root.

I agree. I think Muhammad is the anti-Christ.
