  • I really don't know what makes me want to puke more: The Islamo-nazi infiltrators, or their native-born patsy collaborationist dupes.

  • Unite against U.S. imperialism!

  • There's a big gray line in between bigotry and the kind of scrutiny that Islam and its followers should receive. Islam has had an intellectual free ride. You can't show me an Islamic country that has allowed a critical scholarship to develop. No one is allowed to challenge the dogma. Western society has seen the kind of progress it has precisely because it was able to shake off the shackles religious/ideological fundamentalism. And now threats of violence keep Islam free of intellectual honesty.

    "You can't show me an Islamic country that has allowed a critical scholarship to develop."

    the fact is the west supports and protects status quo governments that is the reason for this, it benefits US hegemony in the region.

    even Islamic states, that are not directly supported and protected with economic and diplomatic support from the western world. like Iran you only need to look at there history to see how the west brought about an a more islamic fundamental state.

  • @Chemicalogic The US caused the rise of Islamic Fundamentalism in Iran and Iraq and other countries by subverting, undermining, and destroying secular regimes. This is revealed, for example, in William Blum's book, Rogue State, which Osama Bin Laden declared in 2006 would be "useful" for Americans to read.

  • @joefriendly

    That's not completely accurate, Joe. I read Blum's book and he was wrong on some key points. While the US did side with Muslim fighters against the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, it was purely politics. Britain and France tried to destroy Islam by force but then opted to place secular elites throughout the Middle East as they carved up the region. In fact the overwhelming majority of Muslim "countries" are weak secular nation state with pro-Western client regimes.

  • @joefriendly Back in the 30s, people like you supported Bolshevism and National Socialism.
