Islamophobia? No such thing. (sm)

Very interesting.

To the liberal mind voicing a concern about Islamic terrorism is islamophobia - anon

These are the same people - liberals - who cannot handle opposing opinions. You know, the same idiots who created safe spaces, oust college deans because of disagreements, and the list goes on.

If I asked a lib if my being against Islamic terrorists makes me - see msg. - anon

an islamophobe yet also state that I have several Muslim friends I'm sure it would completely confuse them. My Muslim friends speak out against Islamic terrorists - does that make them Islamophobic?

Great video!! - Dixie

Apathetic, unconcerned Americans need to wake up before it is too late.

Thank you for posting this.

I don't fear Islam. I fear terrorists. - XQC

I fear anyone who uses religion as a rationale to kill other people. The Christian crusaders did the same thing. The Christian Inquisition did the same thing, all in the name of religion. The European Prostestant/Catholic conflict did the same thing. People use religion as an excuse to do horrific things to other people and that goes back to the beginning of time.

I have had a lot of contact with Muslims through my military experience over the years who are equally terrified of what is going on and equally fearful of being victimized. I was a Middle East intelligence specialist in the Army and was trained in the Arabic language. I was stationed in the Middle East and at NSA and am very familiar with these issues.

What they DO seem to need is some internal leadership to widely condemn this sort of thing and provide guidance. They need to clean up their own house which they seem reluctant to do. The desire by the terrorists to "prove" Allah is all powerful by killing in his name is misguided at the very least and needs to be stopped in a religious context by their own people, not from outside. Failure to do that will result in more un-helpful videos like this and increase misunderstanding of Islam. Men will still use Islam as an excuse to kill and rape and take what they want until it becomes more expedient for them not to, either in a religious context or a social one, and other Muslims need to take care of this by providing the leadership needed to stop it.

I keep getting this idea that when these terrorists finally stand before Allah expecting their reward, Allah will just smack them upside the head and go "what were you thinking," pull the lever, and down they go to hell. A fun thought.

and all Christian symbols covered up, but when he speaks at a mosque with terrorist ties, all Islamic symbols are in full view. Splain that one.

Obama won he last election with 11 percentage points higher than Romney of the women's vote. Why, then, do we accept the fact that his administration paid the women on his payroll less than his male employees last year? The median 2012 salary for female employees of the White House was $62,000; for men that number was $71,000.

If I Were Trump, One Thing I Would DoSep 10, 2016
I would ask all my supporters to tell any pollster who calls that they support Hillary Clinton. One of two things would probably happen: 1. Pollsters fall for it and get the election wildly wrong. 2. Pollsters don't fall for it and can't make any predictions. Either way, it would be the end of the disgusting, crooked polling business that seems to be more trying to influence opinion than objectively reporting it, and we'd all be much better off without them. ...

I am horrified at all we are hearing about Jerry Sandusky and what he is accused of doing. It is hard to understand that not more was done. Have we gotten to the point in our nation that winning a football game is more important that a child?Did the parents know? I haven't heard anything about them. I will say that no amount of money would have kept my mouth shut if one of those boys had been my son. I'd of called every TV station, every radio station, all the newspapers, I would have ...

Is This A Punishment Or A Healthy Thing?May 01, 2012
I have 3 grown kids in their 30s and one is 40. Two of them can't seem to remember my birthday, Christmas or Mother's Day. Once in a while they may call late in the day, or text at 10:40 p.m. on my birthday, but often nothing is acknowledged or done. There have been occasions where I get a card and once or twice a gift, but not usually. One child does routinely send a card but never a gift. They are all professionals and fairly well off. So there I am on all their birthdays and a ...
