Quoted: I'm not in favour of these Islamafists, but reading that article the whole time I'm thinking you could add ARFcom members at any time with quotes like this,
Nearly every weekend, sound of gunfire can be heard from the camp. According to one neighbor who stated he's a combat veteran of the Vietnam War, some of the weapons obviously are "automatic" and large-caliber. On at least two occasions last summer, area residents heard small explosions.

"We hear bursts of gunfire all of the time, and we know that there is military-like training going on there. Those people are armed and dangerous."

Granted, this may be a legitamate problem, but the same could be written about us and the shoots that are held at Millers?

You raise valid points. However, I'd say the difference is that none of us want to use violence to destroy the Western way of life. I mean, this camp is supposedly sponsored by a Pakistani terrorist group. Reading the article, it sounds like they plan to bring some kind of religion or race war here to America. Not good at all. I have a feeling that our sense of political correctness in this nation is being exploited. Its about time we admitted who are our enemies are. The people trying to destroy us aren't Hindus, Christians, Jews, or Atheists. Sure, there are nutjobs who claim to be one of those, but our primary enemies right now are adherents to Islam. World War 2 wasn't a war against facism, it was a war against the Axis nations. Similarily, we are not in a war against "terrorism". Its a war of the modern world (US, Israel, China, India, Europe, etc.) against fanatical Islam. Nothing more, nothing less.

My previous smart ass post aside....I agree 100% with Agilling......we don't see North Koreans in the streets denouncing America......sure , maybe they hate us, but we don't see it every night on the evening news......Here in Cleveland, there were some Arab store owners,(i.e. Palestinians), who ACTUALLY CELEBRATED WHAT HAPPENED ON 9/11.....there was almost a riot and a lynching at W.33rd and Clark Avenues.....CPD had to be called because the Arab store was about to get torched...Emotions were high and, it was a crazy , crazy scene......One I'll never forget.......Cleveland has a pretty large latino community, Peurto Ricans to be exact, and many of the people in that neighborhood had relatives in New York City....so you can all well imagine , with the breakdown of communications, how upset they were to see these Ragheads celebrating, when they didn't even know if some of their families were safe....Do I think ALL muslims are bad or out to get America?...probably not....but we must FACE THE TRUTH....there are over 5 MILLION muslims in this country, many from home countries that are HOSTILE toward the U.S......what if HALF of them picked up a weapon, and started their own AMERICAN INFITADA?...things could get messy....Do I believe this will come to pass?...I don't know, and I am not a psychic....I never thought anything like 9/11 would ever or COULD ever happen in my country .....Since 9/11, I have changed how I think....I have armed myself....I have food and water for at least 30 days....and the more I add to it, the longer my family will be able to survive, should something horrible happen...and Hurricane Katrina showed me just how INEPT our so called "Homeland Security Dep't" is.....if that Natural disaster would have been a MULTIPLE CITY 9/11......I hate to think of how it would've turned out.....As far as Muslim Terrorist Camps in the USA......once again, I ask, WHO WANTS TO RIDE UP TO NEW YORK???
