Quoted:
Matrix, you stated.."they cannot call themselves Islamic as what they have done is against Islamic law."
The prob
lem is that they DO call themselves Islamic. You wishing it was not so, does not change that fact.
They have a different interpretation than you about Islamic law.
The primary reason they wish to wage war is religious. That is exactly what makes them so dangerous.
BTW, I respect your right to practice any religion you want.
My intent is definitely not to "destroy" you.
Please try not to personalize everything.
I consider all the people on this board my brothers, until they prove otherwise.
Referring someone "un-American" is unnecessarily insulting.

It is difficult not to personalize everything when this is happening in our country:

These folks have made it personal by selecting whom they wish to pick out of the crowd.
These individuals who call themselves American are nothing but terrorists...just as these terrorists who claim to be Islamic are not.
Their "interpretation" goes against most views of what Islam is....as claimed & preached by most Imams/Clerics in the world. Yes. There will always be fringe sects who promote violence...kinda like the KKK or T. McVeigh. They will always exist because human nature permits hatred to occur out of ignorance & fear.
Just because they claim to be Islamic does not mean they really are. Just as these Americans who have attacked others because of how they look are not true Americans...in my opinion.
I apologize if I have offended some by calling them un-American, but in my opinion, anyone who condones/permits such violence against other Americans who happen to look like the terrorists...well....what makes them any better than the animals that did this to our country?
[b]Anyone on this board can try a simple exercise to see what its like to be a Muslim today in America:
Wear a t-shirt that says "I support Afghanistan & Terrorism"[/b]
By simply being the same color as the terrorists that is what some people in this country believe. By being born this color, naturally all of us must be terrorists.
That is simply BS.
As to why they wage war, I have posted some interviews with OBLaden about why his hatred is so strong for the USA:

Religion has been the source of many a war...& continues even in our "modern" times. The more things change, the more they stay the same.
