Why not a war on Islam? How about because of this. There should be no war against Islam because they already lost the war almost 10 years ago on 9-11...
Osama bin Laden did not represent a lunatic fringe of Islam. There is nothing inconsistent between Islam and anything Osama bin Laden every did in his lifetime..
Tell me what I have said is a lie. Let's discuss it. Show me what is a lie and why it is a lie.
Since you did not click on the google link. Too much to ask for you. Or watch any part of Mermi TV. Education hurts when they education tells you things that upset your fantasy.

I am sure most people here would be against organized crime even if it had existed a long time, had impacted cultures (favorably and unfavorably) was huge, and just happened to call itself a religion.
--- or even if it did not even think of itself as organized crime.
But clearly not with people addicted. We are not shooting them
We are talkig about a religon. A better annalogy would be thinking that Annon is out to shoot Tom Cruise because he is a Scientologist. (By the way, they are not)
I get my opinion about 9-11 from Muslims I chatted with after 9-11 who still regarded Osama bin Laden as a champion of Islam.
Do you know what critical thinking is? Do you know how science works? It is not enough to say "your theory sucks". You have to give a theory that is better and explains things.
By the way, that is how biblical fundamentalists attack evolution. They don't like it. It sounds mean to them and it upsets how they see the universe. So they attack it. But they never provide an alternative theory that explains things.
Osama bin Laden was considered to be a hero by the United States when he went to Afghanistan to help drive out the Soviets. He was also regarded as a champion of Islam among Muslims. He drove out the Soviets -- kind of -- and he built roads and helped the people. THere are kids in Afghanistan there named Osama, after him. Osama bin Laden is all about Islam and doing what it fundamentally says.
What he did to the Soviets in Afghanistan he decided to do against the USA. When he went home to Saudi Arabia, he noticed that the infidels were marching around his country oblivious to Muslim customs. He did only what he understood Islam to tell him to do.
Show me where he was wrong. Here are direct passages from the Quran that Osama bin Laden could thoughfully cite to support 9-11 and his war against the USA
THere are so many passages, I do not know which ones to call your attention to.
Most Muslims don't know this stuff that, if taken literally, the Quran clearly calls upon Osama bin Laden to do what he did. And if this is true, you cannot blame 9-11 on just a bad bunch of people with bad hearts.
And, yes, Islam demands that the the Quran to be interpeted literally. It is not a book of poems where you can interpret it in any way you imagine.
Non-Muslims are to be fought until religion is only for Allah:
And fight them until persecution is no more, and religion is all for Allah… (8:39 – “Persecution” in this context means resistance to Islam – defined in the prior verse as an unwillingness to believe (see verse 38). This passage was “revealed” following a battle that Muhammad deliberately provoked. Verse 2:193 essentially says the same thing and was also “revealed” at a time when the Muslims were not under physical attack).
Osama bin Laden did this when he went to Afghanistan during the Cold War. He was our hero then. The reasons why he did what he did then was also why he decided to turn and fight the infidels in the west.
This is how SCIENCE tells us what is true and what is not.
You see it is not good enough to accuse someone of bs that is not true just because you do not like what they say. You have to PROVE them wrong.
For example, I met a racist white supremacist in the Navy who told me "Europeans were sailing on the ocean while people in Africa were still primative". To him, that meant something. But it was a logical fallacy. I corrected him. I said "that is because necessity is the mother of invention. Africans had food and resources easily available. Europeans had weather changes to struggle against to survive. If life was tougher i Africa and easier in Europe, it would be the black people enslaving the whites to settle the new world". What I said made sense to him and he conceeded "maybe you are right".
You, on the other hand, just stomp your feet and hurl personal insults. That does not count. Show me alternative theories that make sense. Otherwise, I will just dismiss you as a crybaby for saying the world is not as nice as we all want it to be. Am I wrong? I mean, all I know about you so far is you cannot grasp what I had assumed were simple concepts that anyone could grasp. For example Annon is at war with Scientology. But I don't thnik anyone with a working neron in their head would think Annon wants to kill Scientologists or would not consider Scientologists to be good people or even friends.
May I thank the editor for sparing us from further thousands of words cut and pasted from hate sites. But may I be permitted this? (from a non-hate wiki site). Among Bill's heroes are Robert Spencer of jihadwatch. From his wiki entry
He also co-founded Stop Islamization of America (SIOA) and the Freedom Defense Initiative, with activist Pamela Geller, with whom he co-authored a book, The Post-American Presidency: The Obama Administration's War on America.
She argued that the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem, one of Islam's holiest sites, should be removed because it was built on the same site as Judaism's former First and Second Temples.[28] ... [She] argued that the [Bosniak] Muslims were not murdered but committed suicide to embarrass their enemies.
What is your point? If the catholic church is bad, this means, what, exactly about Islam? What? Tell me your conclusion?
Do you think that by Ibn Warraq and Robert Spencer are bascially full of it and liars? Have you read any of their books? Do you think they are wrong when they say that Islam is a threat to Western Culture, or way of life, science in general and the well being and survival or our species? Is all that a lie?
From 8 Aug. Who's the liar? And another reference to him was deleted by the editor from Bill's cut 'n paste hate site material. By the way, that's what I mean by Ibn Warraq unfortunately finding himself in bad company.
In fact, for Bill to be able to say both, have you read any of his books? and also, I don't even know who he is, indicates something also demonstrated by his bizarre changes of writing style and linguistic competence: he is not the originator of the material (or much of the material) he purports to compose. He simply knows almost nothing about what is in his own successive posts. That's why his arguments are so inconsistent and incoherent.
It is pointless trying to address his material. It is simply regurgitated junk, taken by him from I know not what source that even he has not fully acquainted himself with.

Craig, you are a liar. When did I say that Robert Spenser is a hero of mine? I don't even know who he is. You are a liar. You tell lies that you know are not true. You, sir are a liar.
Why is a web site of the Quran a hate site? And this is THE SEVENTH TIME I HAVE said that I quoted from the open forum on the web site. I never knew the Op-Ed place existed. Yet you get some sort of sick pleasure from attacking strangers on the internet with hog wash.You are insisting something is true about me that I have repeatedly shown is not. Your personal attacks are insulting, and, in fact criminal. Consider this fair warning.

It is like you are living in a world of your own creation. I quoted the quran, not Robert Whomever. And now it seems you even say you do not even know where I get my information. Here are the quoted from the Quran.

If not, complain to the editor that somebody else is writing in your name. If you did write it, how can you later deny ever having heard of Spencer? Dear me, have you never even read any of his books? How remiss of you.
And what do you mean, my attacks are criminal, and you're giving me fair warning? You're not going to be my best friend any more, or what? Or am I to be afraid of a more serious threat? Explain. Surely I have a right to know.
I have pointed out Robert Spencer's close collaboration with Pam Geller. Look them up on wiki. Readers may recall Ms Geller's previous appearance in this thread, at #959 posted 21 Aug. If you can bear it, please have another look.
