Making nice-nice with murderers.

Bush is killing murderers; he is showing respect to fellow American citizens who happen to be Muslim.

"Islam affirms God's justice and insists on man's moral responsibility."

What a load of crap!

Get a drink before you read this.

Why wasn't a statement enough? Or better yet, invite the imams to the Tree Lighting ceremony and then say these words standing next to the imams and the Xmas tree.

So much coddling of the jihadis while true conservative muslims like kabbani and fadl are ignored while the WH and Bush cavort with murdering saudi sponsored jihadi scum.

Bah!

Is he lying? Islam, the way it is observed by 98% of Muslims in the world, IS peaceful.

Even if Bush thought it wasn't, it would be stupid for him to say so.

Just like it's stupid for you to say so.

First Winston Churchill who says Islam will bring down Europe.

Quotation of the Decade? Gregory Smith offers this Churchill comment on that great religion we are not fighting against,,,,,,,

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property‹either as a child, a wife, or a concubine‹must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities. Thousands become the brave and loyal soldiers of the Queen; all know how to die; but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith.


It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science‹the science against which it had vainly struggled‹the civilisation of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilisation of ancient Rome."


.........

"Churchill despised the (ISLAM) Pathans, calling them 'Stone Age savages whose daily deeds are treachery and violence'. He dismissed Islam as a 'miserable superstition propagated by the sword', the founding principle of which was an 'incentive to slaughter'. The village mosque, he deemed a 'consecrated hovel'. He hated the Pathan lifestyle, saying they lived in 'fortified slums, amid dirt and ignorance, as degraded a race as any on the fringe of humanity; fierce as the tiger, but less cleanly.'

Even Pathan women came in for a journalistic beating from the future Prime Minister. 'Their wives,' he wrote, 'have no position but that of animals. They are too filthy to handle and too noisome to approach.' He called the local Pathan patriots who had risen in defence of, what he called, 'their pestilential land', 'ignorant, depraved, squalid, athletic savages'.

He wrote that 'extermination of the inhabitants' of the Frontier was necessary because of the 'perpetual inheritance of our race'."

The above is from various sources.

Below is Neal Boortz


RECOGNIZE THE ENEMY --- THE ENEMY IS ISLAM

In Nigeria the wonderful, peace loving Islamic mullahs are getting ready to stone a woman to death because she had sex outside of marriage. Penalty for the man? Well, remember … this is Islam. It’s all the woman’s fault for tempting the man.

Islam is a violent religion bent on world domination. Recognize this now or pay the tab later.

John Rossi’s recent article in The Weekly Standard told us of Winston Churchill’s opinion of Islam. Here --- read this:

"That religion, which above all others was founded and propagated by the sword--the tenets and principles of which are...incentives to slaughter and which in three continents had produced fighting breeds of men--stimulates a wild and merciless fanaticism."

Is it time to listen to Winston Churchill?

Sorry Neal not just yet but soon!

What if you practice Islam the way it was meant to be practiced? Is it still peaceful? Why haven't "moderate" Muslims condemned the "radicals"? Their silence is tantamount to acceptance of radical teachings.

I wasn't aware that Robertson has used that reference to what Bush has been doing, but by presuming to make theological declarations for the consumption of anyone, Bush is acting as a sort of theologian.

You really ought not accuse people of stealing, they might accuse you of being an ass.

From the Muslim event, Bush officially opened the Christmas season at the White House by lighting a Christmas tree just outside the gates.

I hope he took a shower first. I know I'd have to.

And the murderers of 9/11 just happened to be Muslims too. And their actions were motivated by their religion, or so they claimed. But I don't suppose there's any chance any of these other "fellow American citizens who happen to be Muslim" would ever entertain similar notions. Because theirs is a religion of peace.

Did I get it right?

Those must be the peace-loving 98% who have taken to the streets and mosques denouncing terrorism in the name of Islam.
