Not all Muslims are terrorists, but,
all terrorists are Muslims. Hmmmm... logic, or is just me? |

Look at all the crap happening in the world today and 2 things stand out as major contributors. Drugs and Islam. Both will kill for you.

Actually TSL, that logic is flawed. If all Terrorists are Muslim, we can only say that "if not Muslim then not terrorist," according to that logic. It's a simple contrapositive rule in formal logic. If "A then B" can only mean "If not B, then not A." You can't say that "If A then B" is the same as "If B then A."
This actually deals with set-theory and can get really complicated. Anyhow, I don't think all Muslims are that bad but there certainly are a disproportionate number of bad guys in that community. But what irks me is when these Muslims come out and say all this crap about how Islam is about peace........ok fine. If Islam is really about peace, that's great. But don't preach to us Christians that. Tell your violent terrorist Muslim brothers that Islam is about peace, not us. You've already told us 5000 times. This is why I'm led to believe that lots of those so-called peaceful Muslims are actually terrorist sympathizers who would love to see our destruction also. Now, that bothers me greatly. |

Please,turn this discussion around or it won't last long!
There are plenty of terrorists that are not muslims. Actually,there is nothing really to debate with this FU'd premise. You are just trolling for someone to take the bait and get himself in trouble.[:)] My suggestion: "Let it go!"<-------Rambo in "First Blood" |

Flawed.
Any all-encompassing class generalization with respect to humans and their beliefs/behaviour is by definition a logical fallacy. There is ALWAYS an exception. For Ed Sr.: It's over Johnny. IT'S OVER! Nothing is over, nothing! You just don't turn it off! LOL! I love First Blood! |

I've heard it said that only the Palestinians and other Islamists utilize suicide bombers, but that's not true. Sri Lankans have used them in the past in their war against Indians. I think they even took out the President of India once with a suicide bomber in the 80's, IIRC.

I heard this on the radio yesterday and thought this to be fasinating.
Did anybody know that of the 22 armed conflicts going on around the world, that 20 of them have something to do with Islam. Makes one kinda wonder about Islam really being the religion of peace! |

Not all Nazis were members of the SS or Gestapo either...
Some were ordinary clerks and bookeepers.. They were complicit on many different levels and bore guilt accordingly They all supported Hitler and his henchmen didnt question critisize or scrutinize too closely There were plenty of Nazi apologists in the media ..just like today... And many of the so called 'moderate' Nazis put forth much propaganda elaborating on the ideals of moderate Naziism.. It works real well to have half your people in a military style attack operations world wide..and the other half immigrating into a free society (especially one controlled by your mortal enemies Christians and Jews) Then put all your billions in oil money in notion of moderate Islam..put lots of money into the media (buy up a few newservices) advertising...and put lots into American liberal politicians pockets....next thing you know you have the biggest names in broadcasting carrying your message for you and the American sheep will lap it up as the gospel truth.. And you have lots of famous people in your pocket to convince your enemy that anyone who objects is a racists or intolerant... Even when the truth of what happens in Islamic nations is right in front of them...They stay bought and they stay deluded... |

Have to do with Islam, or do they merely involve Muslims?
It irritates the hell out of me when people assume that just becuase Muslims are involved, issue is Islam. For example, the Chechens. They are not fighting for Islam. There is also a difference between the PLO and Islamic Jihad. The PLO is fighting over the liberation of an area, whereas I.J. is fighting for propogation of their religion. It's an important distinction when dealing with terrorists because each require different approaches to deal with. Religious radicals are much more difficult to deal with, whereas political terrorists often have a more tangible agenda. I guess the PLO and IJ are a little closer together, so let me use someone else. IRA and Aum Shinrikyo...same parallel. |

Stallone's speech at the end (of First Blood) is priceless. I love how he relives the war in his head and just has to smash stuff in the room when he's talking about being entrusted with million dollar equipment.
Who says that guy can't act? |

If not all Muslims are terrorist, they haven't read their own Koran. I have and it says kill all non believers. If this was a dozen or so extremest in Texas we would storm thier home and jail em. If they fought back, we'd rightfully so burn em all.

Yes, and not all gun owners are believers in the RKBA guaranteed by the Second Amendment.
But gun owners must and should recognize that they must, at some point, join in or their rights will suffer. Devout Moslems should understand that they are either going to have to clean up their religion and make certain that we understand that they eschew the faith of the terrorists, that they deny them, and condemn them, or, be lumped in with them. Sorry. That is just being realistic. Does Christianity condemn those who kill the abortionists? It had better, for its Founder would certainly have condemned them. Thankfully, Christians do, as well, in every instance! Every adherent who knows [b]Jesus[/b], knows that [b]Jesus[/b] does not ask any believer to kill anyone for His sake, or for the sake of His Gospel. If you are a Christian and don't understand that, then I seriously wonder about the state of your faith. Eric The(HonestToGod)Hun[>]:)] |

View Quote You comments make me think that you dont really understand Islam that well. If the Chechens are not fighting for Islam why then do Muslims flock there from all over the world to fight and die alongside the Chechens? Because they really believe in an independent Chechen state? I dont think so. Why did the Chechen terrorists in Moscow release all Muslims, instead of just Chechens? This is not a matter of simple nationalism. Why didn't all these Muslim Jihadists just leave Chechnya after the Russians retreated in 1995? Why did they continue operating in Russian provinces to the north? Answer: they were fighting to bring more Russian lands into the fold of Islam. |

How bout this...we are at war, correct?
We are not fighting communist. We are not fighting Nazi's. We are not fighting Budhhist. We are fighting Muslims...we will have to kill Muslims in the next few months. We are being killed by Muslims today. So...who is our nation's enemy? It is...the Muslim. IBTL [b][blue]NAKED[/blue][/b] |

not all muslims are bad, in fact very few Americans of the Muslim faith are anti American. my step son is Muslim , and just last week he decided to join the USAF, he is a proud American, and going to be serving his country.
also id like to know how people can bash a marijuana discussion, because it makes the AR15 community look bad, but not comment on a post about how all muslims are terrorists? Timothy McViegh was supposedly Christian, the KKK are supposed to be Christians, lots of white power racist groups say they are Christian, but we dont confuse the faith of Christ with these groups. flame me if you will, but i know many good Muslims. |

Of course, you can't group all Muslims as good no more than you can group a people for their appearance or national origin. The problem is the religion as a whole. Regardless of who says what, the black and white of the text says kill the non-beliver. As such, any follower of that religion should be suspect of terrorist acts. Anything less is foolish.
The comparrison to Christianity and anit-abortionist just doesn't wash at all for Christianity teaches not to kill while the Koran says kill. Duh! As for using Tim McVey, well you just played into the terroist hands. Surprise or not, I have a number of Muslim friends and have polled not their opinion but of their famillies still in the middle east. Half are convinced that 9/11 was committed by American Tim McVeys and the other half are convinced that the CIA did it so we can stomp on the Middle-east. None that I have personal knowledge of, will believe or condemn their Holy Warriors for they are seen as special in the eyes of Alla. Even moderate Islamic countries still see Bin Laden as a Holy Warrior almost bordering on sainthood. The KKK was percieved as an evil organization by our government for it's preaching of racial purity and as such we penetrated their cells and jailed them when ever a crime was planned or committed. How does this differ from the Mosques here and abroad where hatred of non-Muslims is openly preached? Freedom of religion you say, well your not well informed for the KKK sees their movement as religious and tie their beliefs to the text of the Judean Bible. We have a double standard here. I'm not saying jail or expell all Muslims but to ignore them is suicidal. I'll admit the thought has crossed my mind though. Most of us have children and I don't know about you but I don't want to loose my child to some act of terrorism because I don't want to offend the sensitivties of a religious group that teaches they should kill my child. Talk about stupid!!!!!!! The only way to be safe is for all of us to become Muslims. Is this an option you will accept as a cost for freedom? |
