    That's a candy arse way of putting it. Muslims in Europe are in large segregated communities, don't wish to integrate, and their youth run amok due to lack of opportunity and perceived persecution.

    In America they to some extent are integrating but we have a tiny fraction of the numbers Europe. They still are as thick as thieves and if Muslims ever had the %s here as in Europe? They'll try the same things.

    Naive to think otherwise. We both know their faith isn't just a religion. It's a day to day living instruction manual

    As if because America is the great melting pot Muslims are integrating? Hah

    So the "Islamists" have a different Qur'an than the moderates? And the moderates have programs in place to teach their young Muslims that Mohammad got it wrong about Jihad - wrong that Muslims should "fight until their is no worship but for Allah" - per Quran (8:38-39)? Is that it 22catch?

    Any Muslim who is willing to move to or to stay in the "great Satan" (America) s probably not quite as radical, on average, as the average Muslim in most, say, Muslim-majority lands. American Muslims are an enigma, to some degree. Stop looking at American Muslims to see what Islam is really like. Many Muslim-majority nations have polls showing that 30 - 95% of Muslims think that barbaric Sharia Law is real cool.

    Yes, I think so. Americans don't roll much into what it means to be an "American." A French person does roll a lot into what it means to be French. American exceptionalism is the doctrine that the US is not an accident of ethnic history, but a civic project. Even if that's only a myth, myths matter.

    No, they don't argue that Mohammed got it wrong, they interpret what he said different. Islamic scholars are much better at that than you or I. I'm not willing to spend the time, personally.

    OR maybe Islam is just a failed belief system because Mohammad just simply made it all up to get his warriors to give him booty as per his instructions in Quran 8:41 - which says to give a percentage of the booty his minions plunder to....to...wait for it.....to......MOHAMMAD!! But people would never ever ever lie about being a prophet of god, right?

    If they don't crucify as punishment, then they are less of a true Muslims, since it clearly says to crucify as punishment. If it were not for the civilized Western world, I'm sure more "moderate" Muslims would be on board with following Q5:33 more directly, more as written, take it more at it's word, believe that Allah says what he means and means what he says.

    Even if Mohammad, say, oh, I don't know, had sex with a 9 year-old child, I bet no Muslim would say that Mohammad got even THAT wrong.

    Yes, their religion instructs them as to the proper number of stones, even or odd number (look it up, I'm not kidding you), to use when wiping themselves on the toilet, but does NOT instruct them that slavery is wrong, that beating wives is wrong (Q4:34 says to beat them), that killing gays is wrong.....I guess Allah doesn't understand PRIORITIES very well at all.

    There are Islamic scholars more educated on the subject than either you or I who interprets those passages differently.

    Why is that such a problem for you?

    Wow ok I listened to that. OK this is complicated.. See I agree with her on the fact that when times are hard Islamists recruit from normal Muslims preaching the garbage words. I said something to that effect earlier.

    But this State Dept Lady..

    She's attributing it to bad governance and lack of jobs.. Prosperity.. Whatever. OK fine I'll go with that.

    How ABOUT we stop performing or trying to do stupid regime changes in the fkn ME where they are from?? Or blowing countries to Hell over there and making moderate Muslims scamper about?

    The genie is already out of the bottle and it's OUR fault. So now we need to kill the Islamists. As many as we can... Then stop meddling in the ME so the moderate Muslims who outnumber Islamists 100 to 1...can put the cork back in the bottle!

    Moderate Islam has kept Islamists under control mostly for ages. The West gets a hard on for the ME 30 years ago and it's all gone to ***** since

    This lady.. Haha.. Jobs. Oi!

    Muhammad did make Islam up but not to have his warriors to plunder but Muhammad was a pedophile and made up a religion where he could get away with poking 7 year old girls.

    The righteous one - the PURE one - is the one who chooses to ignore the call to violence, no matter the source. Same goes for Christians, Jews, Buddhists, and Hindus, not to mention atheists, agnostics, and Universalists (spiritual and non-spiritual).

    Did I miss anyone?

    So a white, blonde, middle class (or above) woman of 30-something ... with ZERO life experience outside of her bubble of comfort and safety - is telling us how to deal with her Exotic Pets?

    The profound vanity and hubris of the Prog Left is the one of the most objectionable regressions in human history. We are officially far too rich, and far too well fed, to survive.

    Wait, what, another hit from the religion of peace, what??
    The death cult strikes again. :furious:

    The Spanish inquisition came AFTER 800 years of Islamic rule and Sharia law in Spain. Ringing any bells already?

    And yet, it was carried out by the Catholic church, sanctioned and funded by a Catholic monarchy and the Pope.

    Either Islamic-inspired madmen really do want to destroy the world 'as we know it' or western governments are faking an Islamic threat in order for us to be willing to destroy Islam. Either way there is only one of two possible consequences:

    1). We destroy Islam or .....
    2). The population of western countries revolt and destroy their own, respective nation.

    Why do you jump from "Uh-oh, fanatics from a particular group" to "That entire category must be destroyed?"

    And how would you propose even going about that?

    If I interpret it literally you're claiming two possible "consequences," the destruction of Islam or the destruction of every Western nation. This is a bold prediction. Am I interpreting that correctly?

    Yet another wake up call for the civilized world.

    And we have judges on the left coast that want to welcome the same kind of jihadists into the US with open arms.
