What in the Koran gives you any hope there would be a reformation rejecting Jihad?
What a crock of crap. Travel a bitā¦
As though we are still in the 1800ās.
It is the coalitions of Christian nations of the west that have been bombing the hell out of the Middle East the last four decades. Radicalizing Muslims. Perhaps a new occupation is in order.
The fact that about 1.2 Bn Muslims reject the bloody Jihad by following the less radicalized version.
It really can be āThe Religion of Peaceā if their scriptures are read by those not choosing to use them to justify murder of billions in the name of God.
Right now though about 30-40% of Muslims at least give tacit support to the terrorists and about 10-15% give them direct, substantial aid. That has to change.
Keep in mind though that itās Muslims themselves who continue to suffer the most at the hands of the Jihadists like ISIS and AQ so I have little doubt that much of that support is out of fear not out of common cause.
Seeing Nations like Jordan and Saudi Arabia coming together to combat Iran is in my opinion a very good sign of what we might see in the future.
Bullshit. We respond to violence with violence, we donāt initiate it.
Do you believe that will happen?
Well tell that to Iran will you since they keep spouting it whenever they can.
At some point it will have to happen or the rest of the world will be faced to wipe them out.
Youāre an imbecile. Much of North Africa, where the great Saint Augustine was born, was Christian until the 6th century when Muslims wiped Christianity out there. Many Biblical cities visited by Paul are now Muslim. Constantinople, the great Christian city of the East, is now Istanbul. The eternal ā ā ā ā ā ā capitol of Jerusalem was taken over by the Muslims for centuries. Islam has taken many Asian countries too, and have a foothold in the Philippines.
Today, Americanās are spiritually weak, which is why Democrats are able to impose their evils on so many. Islam is already converting many stupid Americans. POS Democrats are electing hijab wearing Congress people. If you donāt think Islam could take over America then you are even stupider than I thought, and thatās pretty damm stupid.
More importantly theyāve learned they cannot defeat us in a standup fight which is why they rely on terrorism and insurgency to break the backs of their enemies.
One well coordinated attack in just a dozen major US cities would collapse our economy and if they attacked the right targets bringing down our power grid for any length of time could kill tens of millions each week until power was restored.
With due respect, thatās a rambling bunch of wishful thinking. Islam will become pacified at about the same time as the US becoming a Scientology country, with its capital the holy city of Hollywood.
40-50% of muslims support terrorists, thatās not a problem, thatās a cancer thatās taken over the host.
Nothing Iāve seen supports such a contention. The vast majority of Muslims are decent, peace loving people who are the victims of the extremists more frequently than any other group.
They are largely subjugated in countries ruled by the extremists or in which the extremists are constantly attacking anyone who opposes them in any way, shape, manner, or form.
Weāre now seeing broad coalitions among Muslim countries like Saudi, Jordan, even Egypt to fight the Jihadis which shows weāre gaining significant ground.
Two of the largest Muslim countries on earth by percentage of Muslim population are the Philippines and Indonesia and both of which have been very aggressive in battling their own jihadi terrorists with and without US aid.
Itās going to be a long war but without a doubt the radicals are in trouble as long as the rest of us stand our ground and keep gaining ground against them physically, morally, and militarily.
Either there will be a reform and repudiation of the Jihadists, or at some point the rest of the world will have to rise up and utterly destroy them. There are no other options.
A poll in Indonesia after 9-11 gave Osama bin Laden 59% approval. In moderate Jordan, it was 56%. Nowadays, because heās dead, itās slumped a bit.
Which was nearly twenty years ago, and again, those are people living under the thumbs of the same radicals.
Those polls are about as accurate and reliable as Soviet election polls.
Bullshit. They are getting worse if anything.
Toronto Muslim: Executing gays may sound āunfair,ā but thatās sharia law and āitās coming to Canadaā
Islamic is neither a race or ethnicity you idiot.
And if they continue to get worse at some point the rest of the world will be forced to utterly destroy them.
This is why countries like Iran and Syria can never be allowed to have nukes.
Iām extremely uncomfortable with the Saudis pursuing a nuclear option as well for the same reason. While the govāt itself is not furthering or exporting Islamic terror on the rest of the world they have a very tenuous grip on power over a country filled with people who support the Jihad and a concentrated effort could easily bring down the Royal Family and replace them with another Jihadist govāt.
Pakistan is a great example. The country is largely populated by pro Jihadis, and while the govāt officially opposes them there are many supporting Islamist theology and Islamist terrorist within the govāt particularly the ISI which protected and supported AQ and specifically Bin Laden for years in spite of officially being a US Ally in the WOT.
The rest of the word will overlook how bad they are as long as they are destroying us. After we are destroyed, there will be no Force for Good to stop them.
Itās not something they have the ability to accomplish, so itās not a real threat.
