1. Sen. Lindsey Graham, one of Donald Trump’s most outspoken Republican critics, agrees with the president when it comes to fearing Muslims, according to Salon. “The one thing I like about President Trump is that he understands we are fighting a religious war,” the South Carolina lawmaker said Tuesday evening on Fox News. “We are fighting people who are compelled by their religious views to kill us all. They kill fellow Muslims who don’t agree with their view of Islam. They kill Christians and vegetarians, libertarians, you name it. We are in a war.”.... 2. GOP Senator Lindsey Graham's warning that "Muslims want to kill all Americans" shows that Islamophobia is rife among the white majority particularly in the political arena. Among the many factors that contribute to America's rampant Islamophobia and racist abuse could be white supremacy, racial and religious prejudice, and the history of crusades. The crusades were a series of religious wars sanctioned by the Latin Church in the medieval period. The best-known crusades are the campaigns in the eastern Mediterranean aimed at recovering the Holy Land from Muslim rule. 3. Michael Richard Pompeo was director of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) from January 2017 until April 2018. Despite his extreme views on Muslims and the many human rights violations committed by the CIA, the "most loyal Islamophobic general" of the Great Islamophobic Emperor Trump, just like a wolf in sheep's clothing, is busy criticising other countries, particularly China, for discriminating against Muslim minorities.
Islamophobia is an irrational fear of Islam. Muslims have called for the destruction of Israel and the United States. Muslims have slaughtered more people than the all the KKK members and white supremacists/nationalists combined (those are the people the left says we should fear the most) Muslim terror plots continue to be foiled to this day. And the very reason we have airport security is because of Muslims. The fear is not irrational. If you disagree with me then allow me to pick some Islamic countries you can move to so you can prove me wrong. Here is a list of attacks and murders by Muslims during the last 4 weeks: https://www.thereligionofpeace.com/attacks/attacks.aspx?Yr=Last30 But continue on with the nonsense about how much we should fear white nationalists and the other boogie men the left tries to sell.
The West has been in this war since 635 A.D. when the Muslim hordes came out of Arabia to lay siege to the cosmopolitan city of Damascus (no, it was not always a Muslim city) and this war is never going away.
Remember when Biden said there were no scandals during the Obama years which got everyone to list all the scandals during the Obama years? I can easily see this thread going in the same direction.
Religious extremism is bad no matter where it is coming from — and most religious views in general are extreme. That said, let’s say... Canada; started bombing our cities, killing farmers working in the fields with drones, accidentally killing children because they were deemed an “acceptable loss” to take out a high value target. Now say that has been occurring for well over a decade, don’t you think that would create many radicals? We need to exit all of these nations that don’t want us there, focus on our country. We are in dire need of funding to infrastructure and education, protect our borders and move the remainder of the funds to internal programs.
Out of curiosity, how many radicals were created in the USA after 911 occurred who embedded themselves in an Islamic society and killed themselves while taking out innocent people? Osama bin Laden was a Saudi and we were not at war with the Saudis when 911 happened. There have been Muslim bombings in countries around the world who had nothing to do with the anything, yet the Muslims bombed them anyway. And then there are the Christians in Africa who seem to get massacred on a weekly basis, who are they at war with? We don't kill people because they're Muslims, we kill terrorists. We don't kill people because they're gay, Muslims do. We don't kill people because they won't convert to Islam, Muslims do. We don't kill people because they like Western movies and music, Muslims do. We don't kill people because someone drew a picture of our god, Muslims do. Muslims have slaughtered and/or enslaved tens of millions of people and they still do it today but the media barely mentions it. And what's the difference between what Graham said and the comments about Israel from Omar and Tlaib? Not only do they openly hate Israel, they want to boycott them.
Graham isn't that far off track IMO. zero chance I visit a majority Muslim country, less than zero that my wife does.
Which is why I am 100% for protecting our country. Now trump is waiting on an order from the Saudis to attack... Strange times. And we have been bombing the ME well before 9-11. Religious extremism is a dangerous tool to manipulate people desperate for meaning. This is true Graham insults every person of Muslim faith, including the many in the US that are not wanting or willing to hurt anyone. I could be mistaken but I believe the remarks from Omar and Tlaib related only to a specific country.
I would think we would know if 1.2 Billion Muslims wanted to kill everyone. One could say there is a percentage of Muslims at the extreme end of the spectrum who want violence, but it’s just stupid to make any blanket statements about Muslims.
How does that sort of concept play towards the lefts opinion towards Conservative Christians, Southern Conservatives, one be painted as "Bat Shlt Crazy" and the other anything from knuckle dragging inbreeds, Supremacist, Nazi, Homophobe, deplorables, trailer trash and the plethora of other hyperbolic labels they are broadly painted with?
If it's 10% of 1,200,000,000, we have a big problem. And large numbers of Muslims hold extreme views, for instance, in supposedly moderate Egypt, 85% of Muslims think 'apostates' should be killed. As the brave Ayaan Hirsi Ali has said, Muslim terror exists because it is embedded in a wider circle of sympathetic Muslims.
I wouldn't say all Muslims are bad. But I would say far too many of them are easily manipulated and radicalized to the point of killing themselves in their efforts to kill others.
They might not all want to kill us, but the ones that don't, want to outbreed us into extinction. Good luck trying to find a muslim family with less than 4 kids in it. They see themselves as better. It's true. Also, how come the same things that apply to Chrstianity and Judiasm don't apply to Islam? Why can all other religions except for islam be poked fun at? Why do they get special status? Care to explain? Maybe you should research charlie hedbo, they can't even take someone talking trash about them without resorting to murder. Stop acting like its OK, clearly, there is something wrong with this religion.
Yes, religious extremism is a bad thing. I watched my mother go from being a Catholic to a Jehovah's Witness and she's in it very, very deep. If that religion turned violent my mom would probably kill people if she was asked to. Meanwhile, two of my bothers are also Witnesses but they're more subdued and quiet about it.
Not to mention polygamy which makes it worse. Don't get me started on the inbreeding. Islam is a retarding influence.
Actually many, Far to many are taught from birth to hate the west and Israel or anyone that doesn't adhere to their stringent way of religious interpretation and teaching.. Many are taught they are to be rewarded for sacrifice whereas the most persecuted Relions in the U.S. are mocked for teaching reward for love and tolerance for their fellow man.. Stark difference!
Get yourself a plane ticket and drop yourself in Libya, Egypt, Saudi, Kuwait, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan.....just pick one. Step outside of any touristy (protected) area and mingle with the everyday local. Report your findings back to us if you survive. Thanks in advance....
Allah. Just Allah. Allah is all. Islam is the only way to Allah. Anyone that is not muslim is an infidel, and over time, all infidels are slated for extinction. That's the easiest, most disturbing thing to understand about muslims that nobody gets.
Are you referring to the poster? Graham said " “We are fighting people who are compelled by their religious views to kill us all. They kill fellow Muslims who don’t agree with their view of Islam. They kill Christians and vegetarians, libertarians, you name it. We are in a war.” Where did Graham go wrong?
Because Islam is a violent culture! And we have a counter culture that cowers to those that threaten and exhibit a propensity to retaliate..
