Would you agree to the building of a memorial to the Axis War dead next to Auschwitz/Buchenwald/Bergen-Belsen?

A monument to Japanese war dead near the Arizona?

A white supremacist headquarters next to a Civil Rights Museum?

This is just too in your face. I would rather see a building open to all and dedicated to all religions (Judaism/Muslim/Christian/Hindu etc) instead.

But this is just my opinion and in the end the people of NYC have to live with these type decisions which are what I consider "in poor taste".

The "Official" Islamic Religion didn't coordinate the attacks. A group of individuals (who happened to be Muslim) did.

Not the same as your examples.

FYP

Also if you read the Qur' an it quite plainly states that murder is a sin. There is a reason Muslim groups, including the Nation of Islam who isn't even considered to be Muslim by many Muslims, spoke out against the attacks.

On a much smaller scale, it's closer to people protesting the establishment of a large Southern Baptist church near a major site of KKK activity. Sounds just as ridiculous to me.

I didn't know there was an "official" Islamic Religion. I guess that means that there must also be "official" Christian/Jewish/Hindu/Buddhist religions.

Who are these "official" Muslims and how do we get them to stop the terrorists who commit heinous crimes in their religions name? These terrorists were coerced by their leaders to kill infidels and specifically Americans in the name of Islam. There are too many "Harvey Milktoasts" out there that want to just get along instead of calling BS on "official" Islam.

We had 8 terrorists arrested in NC who were plotting attacks. This happened in Johnston County, NC about a half an hour from where I live. Nobody from "official" Islam has condemned these terrorists. They defend them instead.

Maybe they should take the money needed to build a 13 story Mosque/building and plaster adds all over National TV condemning all terrorists and encouraging other Muslims to turn them in before they can wreak more havoc on innocent people. Maybe a large portion of the funds needed to build the Mosque could be used to educate their own followers about "true" Islamic beliefs. Whatever they may be.

It may be true that most Muslims are not terrorists but it is true that most terrorists attacking Americans are Muslims.

^^^I never mentioned what someone must look like to be a terrorist or a Muslim. I only mentioned that most terrorist acts were planned and executed by people of the Islamic faith.

I guess Christianity is innocent then, huh?

heheh...Dude it gets really tricky when you want to accuse one religious faith on carrying out attacks when people of your same religious belief are doing the same.

Let me give you a head start...

Abortion Bombings
KKK Lynchings
1996 Olympic Bombings
and those fellows from the Concerned Christians who wanted to blow up religious sites in Jerusalem

Ok lets try the names of numerous "Christian" terrorists groups.
Sons of Freedom
National Liberation Front of Tripura
Nationalist Socialist Council of Nagaland
Russian National Unity
Lord's Resistance Army
Klu Klux KlanIrish Republican Army And that doesn't even count people like the ones who bomb abortion clinics. And those are just Christians. There are other groups who have different religous make up, and those for who religion isn't important. Saying that most terrorist as Muslim is fear mongering and bigoted.

Educate yourself first.

The Muslim who posted last said that they need to educate their uneducated. That is no different than what I posted. Should he/she educate himself/herself as well?

Read my statement again. I said, "most terrorists attacking Americans are Muslim". How many of these obscure groups you cited are attacking America? Maybe the KKK but the FBI virtually destroyed them in the 70's and 80's to where they are now a non factor.

Oh let's not forget the liberal wack job groups such as Earth Liberation Front, Earth First, etc. Their religion is "Mother Earth".

Terrorism in the name of Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Mother Earth is wrong, period.

My objection to the building of the Mosque so close to the site of the 9/11 attack is that it is too in your face. Build it somewhere else.

One assumes she already has. You however are a reactionary idiot.

Your response?


So exactly how many people does it take to incite terror?

How many neo nazi anti Jewish gunmen did it take to shoot up the the Jewish Holocaust museum down the street from me last year?

One.

How many people did it take to make an attempt to bomb the Pentagon

One.


An how many did it take to bomb Oklahoma?

Two

You want to incite terror? All you need is one good incident.

I said "Official" Islamic Religion because I wasn't sure what the proper term was. I wanted to say The Nation of Islam, but didn't believe that to be correct. I'm sure you knew what the hell I meant, but being a smart ass was easier for you, I guess.

And you seem to forget the shit that gets carried out "in Jesus' name." You also seem to forget that terrorism is not something that's exclusive to Muslims (Oklahoma City?).

You're ignorant.

And he may have also forgotten that more and more terrorists look just like him.
