Quote of the Day by OldFriend

[happygrl]

"CAIR is not doing Arab Americans a favor by being confrontational and not looking for the larger American interests first."

And that's just one quote from this article.

Darwish nails his fellow Muslims/Arabs for their foolish and counter-productive identity politics.

[Gorzaloon]

I suspect it took this person a certain amount of courage to write this. Articles like this have been in short supply, and would do a lot to defuse a situation that would otherwise get much worse with the next terrorist event. Though many of his coreligionists probably do not think so, he is doing Islam a big favor.

[petuniasevan]

That's HER. Nonie Darwish is a woman.

[FreedomPoster]

How long until there's a public fatwah by some cleric?

I refuse to tolerate the intolerable.

ML/NJ

[E Rocc]

That's HER. Nonie Darwish is a woman.

Which makes her unlikely to be the target of any "profiling".

Had Clinton proposed "profiling" those who resembled Tim McVeigh after Oklahoma City a whole lot of rotation devices would have become brown and smelly.

We should forward this to CAIR. Of course they're so busy complaining about the proposed mosque-counting (no terrorists have ever been associated with a mosque have they?) they may not have time to read it.

[Hillarys nightmare]

It did in fact take backbone and intestinal fortitude for this man to write this! It is simply a crime that his voice will not be heard all over the world by everyone.But at least he said it! One can only hope that the main street Tv media will would pick up on this man!

[Hillarys nightmare]

Retraction is in order! Did you day a woman? A muslim Woman?Dear Lord, This is just too good to be true! Excuse me but just where are her muslim brothers on the subject? I hope she has not endangered herself with her Peace loving brothers of the faith!

[Cool Guy]

BUMP!

There are hundreds, maybe thousands, of articles, declarations, and condemnations of the attacks on America and of the actions of Radical Islam in general out there.

I did a search on the Internet and was surprised at what I found.

It appears that the voices of moderate Islam, the majority of Islam it would seem, are being drowned out in the media.

I took some time these last few months to try and figure out why.

I found some interesting information about radical Islam and its roots, I think that I also figured out what's actually going on in our world today.

The key to understanding what's going on is to realize that like Christianity, Islam is not a massive, single-unit block of believers. There are many sects of Muslims...Shi'ites, Sunnis, Wahabbis, are some of them.

The specific sect, and the most radical one, behind the vast majority of the acts of terrorism in the world today is the Wahabbi sect, Usama bin Laden is one of them.

This sect has its roots in the house of Saud...our friend Saudi Arabia.

As you can imagine, Wahabbism is a well-funded movement, and Saudi petrodollars can get a lot of stories pulled from our media outlets.

If you want to learn more, go here, and read the article under the section titled extremism.

[Luis Gonzalez]

CAIR is the American marketing arm of Saudi-funded Wahabbism.

[TLBSHOW]

I did that same search months ago and I have concluded that Islam is the enemy of the World, Christians and the Jewish people.

[Luis Gonzalez]

There are millions of Muslims in the US Todd, they have been here for an awful long time.

They live and co-exist with Jews and Christians, and for the life of me, I can't recall a single incident of violence perpetrated on Jews or Christians by American Muslims.

Some enemy.

But thanks for the reply. There's no stronger support in FR for any position a FReeper could take, than to have you take the opposite one.

That maybe right, but I do not agree with your argument with TLBSHOW.

[Luis Gonzalez]

What argument with Todd?

I don't argue with Todd, I merely correct him.

[Luis Gonzalez]

This is just one example of what the media never gave air time to.

[RWG]

How do they [cair] expect to be taken seriously when they close their eyes to the human rights violations in Moslem countries...and in the same vein, someone should ask darth vader why doesn't he promote his psa in one of the homelands to muslim terrorists who are in government? Locally, there is a frequently played public service announcement by james earl jones commanding listeners to be tolerant towards religions they don't practice. What a waste of air time for that nonsense. It is not in this country that the message should be played but how about in saudi arabia, iran, jordan, and egypt to suggest the start of a list?

[TLBSHOW]

Sorry L but I am right!
