US Muslims see their American dreams die [Pass the tissues]

If they all picked up and left, we would be a lot safer. But they won't because they want to convert the US under the sword, or by Law, or however they can.

Wherever there are Muslims and non-Muslims together, there is violence. Muslims out!

[Anamensis]

Perhaps if they quit funneling money to terrorists through so-called charities, I'd take their complaints a little more seriously. As it is, if the government were really in control of extremists (like me, say), they'd have all been packed up and shipped out on September 12th. So I don't wanna hear it.

[LarryLied]

most believed they had an equal stake in the American Dream.

I doubt that. They saw America as a place to make more money than they could in their own societies. They didn't and don't want to become part of America.

"As a community we feel hurt. Our kids are afraid to sleep at night," I wonder how the kids whose parents were killed on 9/11 sleep. I think Americans in general have shown amazing restraint towards muslims considering the innocent people slaughtered on 9/11 - Maybe when these muslims feel victimized they should watch a tape of people leaping to their deaths out of the WTC. Hurt feelings don't compare to real violence.

Since when did the muslims here ever get attacked? What a bunch of babies...

US Muslims see their American dreams die

Dreams of turning this country into the cesspool they came from? Good.

Perhaps putting an American flag on their house, speaking out publicly against terrorism, and wearing a red-white-blue towel on their head might cut them some slack.

As we say in Broolyn, "Seeya, Hate ta beya!"

Amen!

Bull hockey. They're just mad because now we know what they are up too. Muslims never give up the fight - never. They are not in a popularity contest, they are in an ongoing war against Christianity - period.

In northern Virginia, Muslim Americans are still in shock over the raids. According to some of the 300-400 at the town meetings, agents broke doors and locks, brandished guns, and used handcuffs while they ransacked homes and offices.

Maybe because those famous muslim schools in northern VA preach hate and their textbooks talk about plans for a judenfrei middle east? Maybe because million of dollars were being funneled to terrorists? Maybe because two muslims from this area were arrested last week because they documented their plans to become suicide bombers?

The problem is not us, it is them, them, them.

[fhillary2]

I live in Northern Virginia and the press these raids got were negliagible. It was a one evening story and most of the Muslims interviewed said they would cooperate fully with the investigations and that they had nothing to hide.

That having been said, I'm sick and tired of the vast majority of these Muslims complaints! Most of these folks subscribe to the "You(U.S.A) brought this $#!* on yourselves by supporting Isreal, by bombing aspirin factories, by propping up the arab dictators, by........ Most of these Muslims have a hard time condenming the 9/11 attacks, and the folks who planned it, for the cowardly terrorist attacks that they were. These folks send their kids to the Saudi financed "Hate and destroy all infadel" Muslim schools(not unlike the Pakistani schools that graduate future terrorists) that operate in the U.S.A!!!

Yes, I know, I'm guilty of horrific generalizations. The truth hurts. I'm sick and tired of multicultural B.S.

America, love it or leave it.

[TADSLOS]

Their continued silence towards decrying the 9-11 attacks remains deafening. They don't deserve American dreams if, at best, they sit by refusing to renounce terrorist acts on behalf of their religion in a very public way, or at worst, they secretly support terrorism, either passively or actively.

After September 11, I would hope that we have gotten wise to what it is like to try to co-exist with Muslims. Nearly every "live" conflict in the world today involves Muslims. Friends, they cannot peacefully co-exist with anyone because they are absolutely intolerant. These are not "live and let live" people who you would want to have a barbecue with. They have worn out their welcome here in the U.S. as far as this American is concerned. I would personally restrict entry of all muslims to the U.S. and throw out every illegal Muslim alien (along with the rest of the illegals) and ensure that the muslim religion was strangled here in the U.S. Harsh? Maybe. But would you rather have suicide bombers here in the U.S? Every muslim we allow into this country takes us closer to an Israeli-type existence. Freedom of religion works when the multiple religions have some degree of tolerance for other religions. islam does not. muslims out.

Aw. You're breakin' my heart.

[ChadGore]

If by "muslim american dream" they mean the dream of growing their influence in this, you're damn right the dream is dead.

19 of their own lived among us, smiled in our faces, told us how much they loved this country, told us islam was peace, called us ignorant for doubting them, called is bigoted for daring to question them.

Then they turned around and in the blink of a sunny summer morning slaughtered thousands and thousands and thousands of freedom loving people from 80 nations around the world.

I will neither forgive nor forget in my lifetime.

[Cu Roi]

Those "charaties" are oftentimes money-laundering outfits for Hamas. They, along with the hawallahs, should be prosecuted for tax-evasion under RICO statutes.

"Congressman John Conyers Jr, senior Democrat on the House judiciary committee, is one of the few in Congress who has spoken publicly against Green Quest: "The suggestion that Arab and Muslim Americans appreciate being singled out and interrogated is a prime example of the attorney-general's wartime propaganda machine in full swing."

This ignorant and racist moron, has rarely gotten ANYTHING right.....he's still wrong. Jeeze, will we never be spared the stupidty of liberal/marxist/racist thinking?
