    >...and label an entire group of people based on what a small percentage does. <

    I didn't only base my opinion only on that which an allegedly small
    percentage does; I also took into consideration what a very
    large percentage of the muslim population does not do: actively
    support U.S efforts to ferret out and destroy terrorists who
    operate under the guise of Islam.

    And, Mr. Nielsen, just what percentage of Pakistanis are
    demonstrating against Osama? How many are demonstrating
    in support of U.S. policy? Huh? Huh? You also left out your
    poll results for Afghanistan. Actions speak much, much louder
    than words, brother; even a dummy like me knows that.

    If it has to the U.S. will seal up every godforsaken cave in the
    world if we are ever nuked or germed by these cave dwellers.

    Most Muslims want these terrorists brought to Justice, I don't know what you consider "actively support". So again you base this off of ignorance, and literally spit out statements that are pure lies.

    They demonstrate in a variety of ways, one of which is to
    proudly display their nation's flag. Hey! I guess that includes
    you too .

    To start out with the 5 million in this country, including me. The 80% + of the population of Pakistan, and any Muslims that actually follow religious principals of Islam, im sure over a billion people.

    I agree that the people demonstrating are nothing more than savages, but that still gives you no right to label everyone else the same as them.

    Americans don't go to Saudi Arabia and conduct suicide missions in an attempt to kill as many civilians as possible. At least not in times of peace. Hey they do have nuclear bombs and guess what. They are not even using them. If you gave a nuclear missle to Sadam, than he wouldn't wait 5 minutes before he lauched it at some country in the name of some bull**** God.

    My several Muslim friends, whom I assure you are just as appalled by the terrorism as you and we all are. However, they aren't yelling for the blood of everyone, as many people appear to be. Come to think of it, they seem to be the most rational in all of this... They want the blood of the terrorists, but they know that you can't blame a whole religion for this.

    ummm I don't think so... but it is a world religion. (budhism, protestant, then muslim.... perhaps). I should look into that. I am probably wrong.

    It's been quoted that Islam is THE fastest growing religion.
    I could say something, but I won't.

    First of, I have to say that the conversations go like this

    you are wrong I am right
    No I am right
    NO! I am right


    America does not exploit Saudi arabia, we actually are the backbone to their economy. People want us out of the middle east, ok we will drill in America and get our own natural resources. But of course if america withdrawals and doesnt get any money, we wont send food to these third world countrys. As you can see the big guy is always the bad guy.


    A few points about different religions, and Countrys-etc

    Torah = oldest accurate book ever made

    Christianity = extension of Judaism to both Jews and Gentiles, does not change the Ideas of Judaism at all, extends them to the modern day better

    Judaism = oldest surviving religion that is practiced the same today as yesteryear

    Islam = Rip of of Judaism, Muhammed created his religion from Judaism, this is known fact, not fiction

    Jerusalem = Most significant religious City in the world, Muslims, Christians, and Jews center for Ideals.

    Hebrew = only "Resurected" language in the world, dead for 1000 years and now alive and well.

    America = First ever total democracy in the history of man, most powerfull nation in the world, Major religions/sects
    Protestants, Catholics, Jews.
    7.1 trillion dollars a year in income for citizens, government gets around 45%. 400 billion of these tax dollars go to defense
    40 % of citizens have College degrees, 99% literacy rate

    Isreal = Total democracy, develops its own weapons, including jet fighters (C7), small arms (Desert eagle, UZI)
    99% literacy rate.
    Strongest military might in the middle east besides Iraq, weapons and training are equal to american Counterparts. Country could easlily invade neighboors and win.
    Can produce finished goods. Intel has a multi billion dollar manufacturing plant, only place in middle east this is possible to build because of Education. Country invented Virtual Reality, among many other technological inventions. Women are allowed in the military, along with anything else they want to do.

    Afghanistan = Totalitarian military government, routinely gets food and medical supplies from America and America`s allies. Country has been in civil war for years.
    Income from people is negligible, heroin is number 1 export. Most heroin and opium production in the world. Very little Historical signifigance. Women are not allowed to work outside, touch a man besides her husband. Men can have multiple wifes, Fathers routinly sell their daughters to men. In ranking of treatment of women, only Yemen is considered worse.
    65% literacy rate

    Iraq = Totalitarian military government, Developed chemical weapons that caused a stop on exports/imports to the country. 500,000 iraqi kids died because food from america was unable to get there. 80% literacy rate.

    Durban(meeting in the middle east) = 1 week before attacks America and Isreal pulled out together due to Anti - Zionism. Conference was on racism, Afghanistan, along with all manner of 3rd world underdeveloped nations attacked isreal for being "Racist".

    Oil = natural resource, although there are very viable alternatives, oil is the most abundant and cheap to produce.

    Heroin = 1 million americans 1 hundred thousand British people currently addicted, consumes most income from these people.


    _______________________________________

    Here is my plan, we feed clothe and give medical supplies to all third world countrys, give them weapons to stop invasions from other countries. Allow these countries to backstab US. Lets also get oil from these countries in the process, this is evil to do since even though we are helping these countries survive, we do not deserve anything in return.
    Allow "enlightened" individuals to lay all blame of WTC attacks on US. Allow more enlightened indviduals to blame Jews, and to want to pull out of the only democracy in the middle east. Allow most enlightened of all the individuals to not want anyone to die, death is too cruel yah know, these enlightened individuals would rather sacrifice their safty and lifes along with yours than harm a hair on a terrorist.

    Osama bin laden Aint a prince. he has killed before, does it matter if he is guilty for this? yes, it does but he should still be imprisoned and never executed. He should live 100 years in jail, so he cant be allowed to be a martry for the cause of killing innocent americans.

    oh, forgot 1 more list of things, what america has done for the world.


    WW1 = sent food and supplies, including weapons and technology, a clear allie was not made during WW1 as the war was a tragic accident. American boats sank during the war were filled with goods headed straight towards britain

    WW2 = America started the draft in 1939, sent american troups into various parts of the world before war was declared. Built a massive force to dessivevly destroy the enemy. America was attacked because we planned on attacking them, get your facts straight people.

    Vietnam = dont know much about this, except that their are many greatful vietnamese/korean in my neighboorhood, and their opinion of america is much better then yours.

    Hiroshima , Nagasaki = Military production towns, used for the Japanese war machine, first bomb was dropped and japan did not surrender, 2 weeks later after much decision of future consquences 2nd bomb was dropped. Japan surrendered. Carpet bombing would have caused as many deaths, if not more. Oh, btw japan was training school girls how to fight at the end of WW2.


    Food = america produces the 2nd most amount of food in the world, sends most of it to other countries, loosing money in the process.





    I will never feel "guilty" that i am considered to be in a rich country, I am well educated and willing to die for my country. I am well fed, I am Christian, I support Isreal, I believe these acts were terrible, I'm American, and damn proud too.
