Did you know that Muslims await the second coming of Jesus Christ?

So what? They also teach that Judas died on the Cross, not Christ. They're not waiting for the Second Coming of that Christ who willingly died on the Cross so that all men might be free....

The point is that they share much common ground with Christians, and that this common ground is in danger of being destroyed by extremists within Islam who seek a civilizational confrontation NOT based on their desire to promote Islam, but rather to seek power.

We are dangerously close to war, and while I wholeheartedly support this war, I want to make damned sure we strike at the enemy, not leave it alone.

The enemy is Wahabbism, and the House of Saud.

We (our government) have yet to speak the name of Saudi Arabia when we talk about our enemies in this conflict, that's dangerous. It would be like fighting WW II without attacking Germany.

These fools think that I have somehow "sold out" for simply pointing out that they are falling in the trap set by bin Laden.

"They also teach that Judas died on the Cross, not Christ."

This belief is based on the Gospel of Barnabas, promoted by the Vulgate Bible, and generally recognized as a false belief by most Muslims.
