I share your feelings. I too once thought that Islam could peacfully coexist in our nation, but I'm not so sure anymore. I'm not advocating people go out right now and start targeting muslims in the US, but I definitely think we need to keep our eyes open and watch for the signs (ie prepare for SHTF).

Some of that stuff you posted really makes me wonder about Islam in the US. When I was in college my next door neigbor in the apartment I lived in was dating a Pakistani guy who was a muslim. I tried to be open minded, I went over and met the guy. I shook his hand. It was as limp as a fish. When that guy's family found out that he was dating her they were outraged. They took him out of school and told her that she could never see him or talk to him again. Keep in mind this guy was 21 years old and his parents were forcing him to do what THEY wanted him to do. They do NOT want to mix with the rest of American society. I wonder what their intentions really are...

...all I'm saying is keep your eyes open people...watch your back...

I personally know 3 muslim men, and their families.  2 are as American as anyone...  gun-toting, Harley-riding, productive Americans.  

The other guy is somewhat shady.

We have a few on campus here at OU.  Near campus they built a mosk and have daily calls to prayer.  My buddy lives near there and they come by in herds and he has always been polite.  The past year or so he has been getting stared down.  He says he can feel the hatred towards him.  
After 9-11 some frat guys went to the mosk and messed it up really good.  Now it's like a compund with bars all around.  I can only imagine what goes on in there.

Keep your eyes on Europe.  There has been an inexorable migration of muslims into western europe over the past few years.  

Hopefully, they'll show thier hand there and we'll learn our lessons without schoolbuses blowing up and wholesale hostage-taking here.

Ask people in Philippine, Malaysia, Indonesia, and Thailand how they like having those Muslims around.  Each and every one of them ended up with the Muslims wanting to have a separate Islamic country of their own, and each and every one of them have to fight bloody wars.

Is that something we want?

I think "NO".

There may, indeed, be Muslims who like their Harleys and beer as much as the next guy, and whom many of us might enjoy going shooting, golfing  or fishing together with... that I do not doubt.


but... a) we seldom ever "know" people we think we know:(ever get a divorce fron that sweet little thing you married with love in your heart?) and b) history is rife with betrayal of societies by people many within those societies thought had been co-existing happily forever (Ever read Uhuru or some of Robert Ruark's other books that deal with Kenya's history? How's about trusted family servants and workers whose families lives had been closely intertwined for decades taking the same babies they had cared for all their lives and bashing their brains out against a wall before they slaughtered the rest of the family? Want more?...there's lots out there and not all about Africa, by a long shot, either!)


Many here have said it before me...a Muslim is always a Muslim first...and yes, so is a Christian...but the Christian religion does not specifically encourage the killing of "infidels"...the Muslim religion does...or at least close enough that many of them will tell you it does...certainly the radical clerics have no problem with it.

I believe we will pay dearly for our tolerance and political correctness where this religion is concerned...very dearly indeed, and the payments only started with incidents like 9/11 and others before such as the bombing of the Marine Barracks in Lebanon and Clinton's mess in Somolia. They  will get far more expensive before this is over I fear.

Yes, Islam CAN coexist with mainstream American culture.  That is, until IT becomes the mainstream, dominant force, at which time its true nature would be revealed and it will be too late to do anything about it.

There's no reason it can't, as long as the RoP is willing to shun Saudi money and the intolerant, violent Wahabism sect that goes with it.  But that's not very likely. The trend is the complete opposite. Global Islam is embracing Wahabism, Jihad, and Saudi money.

Indonesia went from a very easygoing, tolerant Muslim society to an intolerant one with all the bombs and church-burnings that go with it.  Why?  Because the Saudis used the massive revenues they gained by squeezing the oil supply after the Arab defeat in 1973 to spread their militant brand of Islam all over the globe.

As an analyst for the Rand Corporation observed, Saudi Arabia is the kernal of evil that fuels global terrorism.

I used to think it could. After all, the US Constitution pretty much demands that we not single-out and punish people based upon their religion. After all, what if YOUR religion was singled-out? But now I am no longer sure. I think people are right when they say that islam desires to take over EVERY peice of land it inhabits and make it the state religion of the land and punish ALL others. So THAT is NOT reconcilable with the Constitution. So we have a BIG problem here -- follow the Constitution and allow the muslims to take over and abolish it and US, or abolish it ourselves and prevent the islamics from doing that. Now you can see why we are screwed either way. But I gotta give in for my desire for self defense on this and side with the believe that America and islam are NOT compatible...

Exactly. That's my point.

So do we stand and watch what's going now--like in Thailand, Nigeria, etc... and act only if it happens in our soil? By that time, it'll be too late, and US is a battlefield.

Does our govt know the implication, the foreshadower of what most likely to happen in US?

What are the alternatives?



Sadly and unfortunately, our country will not pre-empt the infiltration by radical Islamists (who start off as moderates).  I foresee increased incidents of cultural friction occuring between Americans and Islamic Americans or immigrants of Islamic faith. Lives will eventually be lost and eventually revenge is sought.  From there it will be tit for tat and it could eventually reach huge proportions.  Islam, like Christianity, may teach tolerance but it has definately taken a different turn.

I used to laugh at some of the members of ARF.com because they would continually talk about SHTF, but I'm not laughing any longer.  Stoically, I am actually surprised I haven't seen Mujehadeen (Holy warriors) with ski masks running down the streets in downtown USA...yet.

Once I thought we could coexist but now, It's another story. There is no way in hell we can live side by side without me keeping my weapon at a low ready. From now on I will look at every Muslim and wander what is he/she up to? It's us or them and I think with yesterday it is coming very soon to a street near you and me.

Personally I hate that I think this way but what in the hell am I supposed to do? If our government is not going to do the job for us over there then it is coming here and we will have to do it ourselves.

We have a few on campus here at OU. Near campus they built a mosk and have daily calls to prayer. My buddy lives near there and they come by in herds and he has always been polite. The past year or so he has been getting stared down. He says he can feel the hatred towards him.

    Don't they teach you how to spell??  Gee, I know now not to send my kid to OU.  You guys need to get over stuff that isn't your business.   99.999% of the people who practice the Faith of Islam just want to be left alone.  Trashing somones place of worship is pretty cowardly.  I have several nieghbors who are Muslem and they keep thier yards nice and their houses up.  I have several nieghbors that are "Poor White Trash" (No offence) who don't keep thier yards and houses up. Who do you want for nieghbors??   In the United States of America you have the right to worship/not worship they way you want.  A lot of you BobbleHeads forget that.  
     There are also a lot of Mid-Eastern people who live in the USA who are Christian. Copts, Chaldeans, Assrians and a couple more I forgot.  
      You guys need to "Live and Let Live"  Most recent imigrants just wanted what 75% of what my ancester wanted when they came to North America.  A chance for a better life.  If your interested the other 25% just wanted casnios.  It took 200 years to get them

I have not read the Koran but my wife has.  She tells me there is nothing in the Koran urging muslims to live in harmony with or to be tolerant of other religions.  Quite the opposite she says.  As such, I tend to view most muslims as people who would just as soon slit my throat as look at me.  So, NO I do not think that we can live in harmony.
