I probably shouldnt use the term, you are correct.

What I find really chilling is that after the japanese attack on Pearl we had groups of japanese here volunteering to join the servie just to show their patriotism.

Where are the Muslims like this?

I dont think they exist.

Check out the poll that the Pew organization did yesterday, the populations in most of the Islamic world simply hate our guts.

Ok, fine, if thats what they want then may God have mercy on their souls because they simply cant conceive of what we are cabable of doing, they have no conception that if things really get rough places like Mecca are going to be turned to glass.

Actually, I have seen two articles dealing with Muslims in the US military. One was an Afghani whose parents fled to the US with him when he was young. He is now in the military and was stationed in Kabul last year.
There was another article a few months ago about a Lebonese-American that signed up after 9-11, to the shock of his family. He said he wanted to protect his home. His family was concerned he'd be hurt. It would be interesting for a historian to take some numbers down and figure out the percentage of Japanese-American soldiers during WWII and Muslim-American soldiers in the last year, but I admit I'm not privy to that data. Also, I wish I could remember if the Lebonese man was Christian or Muslim, since there are a large number of both.
I wish I had those articles for you. I'll try to look around.

And I don't trust polls... it's all how they word the question.

Look at how the polls told the mid-terms would go.
