Well I'd suggest (referencing junkernaut's first post) that we NOT behave like the Mayans or Aztecs. The aztecs are a GREAT example junkernaut. You had a civilization of roughly twenty MILLION who ALLOWED 500 conquistadors to land and start talking to the natives. TWO YEARS later those conquistadors allied with many who disliked the Aztecs brought the Aztec civilization down.

We are allowing those who WANT to kill us to set up shop in THIS COUNTRY and preach their HATRED unfetterred. They are preaching this hatred in mosques in DEARBORN MICHIGAN for god's sake. We are ALLOWING a terrorist front group called CAIR (counsel on american islamic relations) to not only OPERATE here but to SUE (in our courts) airlines that have the nerve to remove suspicious passengers (the flying imans). In fact, the DEMOCRATS are killing a bill that would protect people who report suspicious behavior (which is what the gov't ASKED citizens to do in the wake of 911 etc)from being SUED!!! And we are so afraid to offend anyone that granny is getting searched more at the airport than Mustafa when we all know DAMN WELL that a thirty year-old arabic male presents far more a threat than an 80 year-old granny!

I'm suggesting we wake the fuck up and confront REALITY and reality is that a very large number of muslims (probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 100 million or more) want to kill us. John Edwards can talk about bumper striker slogans all he wants but make no mistake THEY ARE AT WAR WITH US whether we choose to admit it or not.

I'd also ask that Clone or anyone else on this board show me even ONE relatively mainstream chrtistian or one person who proports to speak for christianity who is maintianing that we should KILL those who don't convert to christianity. There are christians who believe they are right and those who disagree are going to hell. But I know of none who maintain that THEY have the right to send them to hell. THAT is a material difference! The christians are not CURRENTLY (in this century) maintaining that they have the right to kill unbelievers. The muslims are!!!

And folks WE are the unbelievers.
