In any predominantly Muslim nation, people of the book are taxed till they convert. People who are not "of the book"...well they're not as fortunate. Both followers of Hinduism and Buddhism would be considered fit for slaughter, esp. the latter since they consider god (Allah) worship antithetical to peace and complete awakening. > > I predict that eventually we'll see Islam no longer classed as a religion by some western nations, but instead as a dangerous social and political movement, with a quasi-religious core.

It appears to me Vaj, that along with being an anti-Transcendental Meditation pseudo-scholar, you also turn out to be a hateful xenophobic bigot. Any huge group of ANY religious ideology will be found with its fanatic and extremists - that would include the Christians and the Jews. The obvious fact that you seem to eagerly and blindly ignore to feed your paranoid hateful bigotry is that the huge and vast and overwhelming majority of the members of these groups are peacable, law-abiding human beings with families who simply want to get along with their lives and have conflicts with no one. I would have thought that self-professed 'know-it-alls' like you would be intelligent enough to not be sucked into the anti-Isalm hysteria by the prevailing paid paranoia propagandists on the Fake Noise network like many ignorant, insecure people were by Joe McCarthy during the 'communist panic' era. It's easily lead irresponsible clowns like you who would foment more hatred and divisiveness to perpetuate and escalate the conflicts. Apart from that - considering the Ft Hood shooter - in this country people are supposed to be afforded the rule of law - not mob lynching - which some of the obsessed hateful bigots would love to carry out. It hasn't been shown that he was part of any terrorist network. In any case the whole event is under intense investigation by the DOJ, the FBI and the Pentagon - and the actual facts will come out in court - under the rule of law. Apparently most Americans still DO have common sense - particularly after having been suckered into supporting BushCo's extensive propaganda fear-mongering and repeated lies about the great EVIL of Iraq - when it turns out that Saddam and in particular, the Iraqi people HAD NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH 9/11: Poll: Most say Ft. Hood Shooting a "killing spree" not "act of terrorism" Fox Noise Poll: Mixed Views on Calling Ft. Hood Shooting Act of Terrorism 49 percent shooting is most accurately described as "a killing spree" 44 percent incident should be called an "act of terrorism." Among groups, young people under age 35 see it as a killing spree (61 percent), but seniors 65 and over are more likely to describe it as terrorism (57 percent). Democrats are more likely to call it a killing spree (63 percent), while Republicans tend to call it terrorism (58 percent). Men divide evenly between the two descriptions, while a majority of women say the shooting was a killing spree (53 percent) rather than terrorism (41 percent)... Asked about Hasan's possible motive for the shooting, 45 percent think he is someone who just went nuts one day and opened fire, while 38 percent think he is a Muslim extremist protesting U.S. foreign policy. One in 10 thinks it was some of both. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,576016,00.html <http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,576016,00.html> > On Nov 20, 2009, at 4:20 PM, do.rflex wrote: > > > > > > > Rachel Maddow delves into the right wing's apparent anti-Islam sentiment, which is looking more & more like the new McCarthyism > > > > Watch: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/21134540/vp/34052943#34052943 >
