After watching the Blind Sheik on TV last night, and seeing how we had a sergeant in the U.S. Army who was one of these radicals, and hearing direct quotes from them about "eradicating Infidels from the world Allah created for the Muslims," and "we have to conquer the West from within", and "we can use their own freedoms against them and they will allow us to infiltrate their highest levels," I'm leaning to "the whole thing scares the shit out of me, there's no way to tell the good ones from the bad ones, and I think it's going to be an all out war with only one side surviving."
The more I listen to more of these Islamists, the more I'm thinking, "screw this. It's going to be an all out hoohah, and either we're all going to be wearing robes, or those folks have to be greased."
You ought to watch that show on Discovery Channel called Triple Cross, it'll scare the living shit out of you. Skip their comments and just listen to what these Islamic higher-ups are saying, even the ones in frigging government, and you'll straight shit your pants.
I get the feeling there is a very small group of Muslims who say "what's so funny bout peace, love, and understanding," then there's a very small group that says "this planet is for us, and everyone should be Muslim and if they aren't they should be dead," and there's a huge group in the middle that leans to the "death to the non-Muslims" group, which either sympathizes with the radicals, or outright helps them through funding or other support. I think even if you could ferret out the "peace, love, and understanding" folks and wipe out the rest, the basis of the religion itself would sooner or lead to more radicals.
Tough deal all the way around.
