All I read here is a lot of endless Islam bashing. But, I have yet to hear any ideas of any type of solution to this so called problem. The problem is not religion, believe me, hate will find a way. In this case religion is only a vehicle for this hatred.

The majority of Muslims probably could not care less about the west or the Jews would it not be for their fanatical leadership who use religion in conjuntion with their own cult leader tactics to get their followers to believe as they want them to.

Charismatic leaders, the Hitlers, Husseins, Bin Ladens are not far removed from the Jim Joneses, the David Koreshes, or even the Jim Bakers of the world. They all use their own power and appeal to prey upon the weak for one reason or another. Usually that reason is not for the betterment of the many, the people they claim to lead. The one who gains from it is are the leaders and their own kind.

All I read here is a lot of endless Islam bashing.

What started this thread is a story of Christian-bashing by none other than the President of the United States and his Secretary of State. The President does not have to bash Muslims and should not. He should not, however, characterize the Islam faith as something it is not. He should also not belittle Christians who dare speak the truth about what most Americans clearly believe.

The President says it is the sentiment of most Americans that Islam is a religion of peace. I have seen no private or public verification of that assertion. On the contrary, most Americans are very concerned about how the Islamic faith has fostered some of the most dangerous and murderous people and been their proud motivation to turn murderously upon innocents from one end of the globe to the other.

To President Bush and Secretary Powell, I'll quote from The Outlaw Josey Wales, "Don't piss down my back and tell me it's raining."
