Lindsey Graham: Muslims Want To "Kill Us All"

Like Christianity was never militant. In fact religion may cause criminality. After all, even though around 22% of the population are non-believers, yet in prisons, only around 1% are non-believers. Obviously believers are more likely to commit a crime than non-believers.

 

AQ was a faction of the Mujahideen that fought the Russians. We supplied arms to all of them. I have always thought AQ was the brain child of Zawahiri and not Bin Laden. It was he who was MB and radicalized. I thought OBL wanted to take over the Kingdom of SA and that was why he wanted US forces out of the country. We blocked his becoming.

 

Even if he did say that exactly, past is prologue.

 

who said that, a Muslim or Christian that kills non-believer is worse than a religious fanatic that discriminates against others based on their gender or race, but they are both bad

 

So, if you believe what dear old Lindsay said.

What should Americas response be? What should our policy be? If this is true, and muslims are such an existential threat to us, what should we do about it?

 

Don't pander to them. They must follow local laws and be charged with a crime if they don't. Don't allow schools based on Islam because they must receive a broader education. No burkas.

 

And condemn the Koran in US Congress for hate speech towards non-Muslims.

 

Not sure abut that. I wouldn't like to see the Koran enter any government buildings and that includes Congress, The Senate, The Oval Office, The SCOTUS, all the way down to public schools. Perhaps some libraries can carry it..

It should be recognized for what it is, ignored as much as Mein Kampf, and known only as a curiosity piece of what the medieval mind was being taught and the harm which can result...

 

I agree. Not all religions are created equal, since some religions are totalitarian power-hungry ideologies to enslave the world.
Mein Kampf is a good referent point.

 

No they're not. Someone who burns children at the stake, it is not as bad as someone who says we don't bake wedding cakes for gay weddings.

 

Some people are unable to grasp the concept that there are varying degrees of "bad".

 

Yeah, I wouldn't consider the latter bad at all. A thief sure. That's a much lesser degree of bad but still bad. Opinions though?

People might be part of that words are violence crowd.

 

I like using a Thesaurus because it can often make me appear more 'erudite', 'knowledgeable', 'scholarly' and 'brainy' than I actually am. "Bad" just doesn't impress..

There is no conspiracy theory behind the point that... for instance... the Christian/Jewish America supported the WMD war of Saddam Hussein against it's own people and Iran. It's a fact that they did. Your point that it wasn't motivated by religion but just greed for power is really of no concern to the victims. And that goes for all my points raised in post 143.

 

Now that is a far right wing conspiracy.

 

isn't that what I said

a Christian or Muslim that murders people is worse than those that discriminate based on gender or race

 

No, it's not another one of your goofy "far right wing conspiracies".

It's called "Democracy" which means one person isn't the absolute ruler. Ergo, London is not "Governed" by a Muslim, as you claimed.. His powers are very limited.

 

If it was, it was contrary to Christ's teachings, the jihadists commit mayhem because of the word and deed of the 'prophet'. You don't judge a philosophy by it's misuse.

They aren't practicing Christians, that group commits fewer crimes, they're the kind who say they're Christians because their mom went to church.

 

London is simply governed by a Muslim.
As for democracy.... they VOTED him in!
You're just being jelly.

Dunno where you think that leash is at.
That is a far right wing conspiracy.

 

Yes, he was voted in. No, he does not govern. His powers are very limited.

A leash means he is constrained.

And the far right wing conspiracy is what?

 

Your "leash" is still a far right wing conspiracy. I'm not seeing any slave owner holding it.

 

Sorry, here's why you're wrong. A FEW Muslims have done these things. The VAST MAJORITY have not. You're entire argument is predicated on all Muslims being of the same mind. They are not. Your conclusion is the most ridiculous that could be made from not only the available data, but from simply understanding the very basics of human psychology. And by basic, I mean a 4 year old level of understanding human behavior.

 

Nobody, including Sen. Graham, has said ALL Muslims are terrorists. Not all Germans were Nazis in WWII either. As a wise Egyptian Muslim once said, not all Muslims are terrorists, but almost all terrorists are Muslim. Want to address those 35K terror attacks by Muslims since 9/11 now? A four year old could.

 

This is gibberish. What are you really trying to say?

 

I wrote... When the crusaders were just a bunch of rapist, looters, genocidal monsters.
You claimed that is how muslims are. A muslim like the London major is on some leash to be not like that.
That still is an Islamophobic far right wing conspiracy gibberish.
