Thats all I need to read. If you are mentally ill you are mentally ill and what you do should not be taken seriously (in terms of thinking this person represents anyone besides the mentally ill). Try again.

Taliban beheading video GRAPHIC


"The beheadings were referenced in media in an almost cavalier manner, failing to reflect the truly vicious nature of the act and the Islamists who performed the act. The truth is that the beheadings performed in accordance with Islamic (Sharia) law are anything but – they are absolutely horrific and gruesome – and represent unspeakable evil."

Most of them are of the same mind so I guess they are mentally ill too.

So as long as the death is pretty your fine with it. But once death is shown to be what death really is (ugly) you throw a hissy fit? You guys want to see people killed for killing people, death isn't pretty, and if you think its supposed to be nice and lovely you sir are mistaken.

Islam4UK is planning a mass demonstration in London at the end of the month supporting

You do not even know what you are arguing and it changes with each post. I am done wasting my time.

Ohhh-kayyy... But a scary % of them sympathize with those crazy extremists and feel that their terrorist attacks are justified. Easy to feel safe and cozy living up there in your predominantly white, overwhelmingly Christian Lake Zurich. You also have to realize that the US has only ~1% muslim population, which is increasing. As that number increases, so does the culture clash as they don't emigrate to assimilate. They emigrate to spread Islam and Sharia Law. Just ask your buddy, Herman.

From your link;

"The Muslim Council of Britain hit out at Islam4UK saying it “risked sparking violence” and masked “the real threat from rising Islamophobia and far right fascists like the EDL and BNP.”


The MCB also hit out at the Daily Express newspaper after they published news of the rally in a front page splash under the headline ‘‘Now Muslims Demand: Give us full Sharia Law’."

Maybe you can point out where they are condemning Muslim violence? All I see is the fear of retaliations as the reason for protesting the march.

FAIL!

Provide a percentage of those who agree with terrorist attacks from the United States. You can feel how you want about plenty of thing but as long as you go out and do it I'm not worried. The Muslims in this country are peaceful and if they seriously wanted to kill they would, and they wouldn't be afraid of dying because they would apparently be doing it in the name of Allah but lately I haven't seen many Muslim religious murders have you?

You don't live in a muslim dominated area so you're not likely to see it.



22% of American muslims feel that violence against civilian targets is justifiable, conversely 78% of American muslims feel that suicide bombing can never be justified.

Look at what happens to countries as their muslim populations increase. There was a whole thread about it. Nobody is saying that the mainstream muslims here now in their low numbers are running around blowing people up with the exception of a few crazies. It's what happens as they increase in numbers that is worrisome.
