Most Muslim Americans See No Justification for Violence



Every few months the Gallup poll showing that 40% of Palestinians believe that suicide bombings in defense of Islam are sometimes justified. Some people like to use this as evidence that Islam is a violent religion.

However those people forget that that number doesn't compare Muslims to any other religion.

This poll does.

British, Germans, and Japanese were famous rapists in war.
Muslims are better in this regard.

The Muslim "holy book," the Koran, says that Muslims should kill the "infidel" (anyone who isn't Muslim) wherever they find them.

Islam is a violent "religion" (it is more like a cult). It is not a "religion of peace," and anyone who says it is, is either trying to hoodwink you (Muslims) or they do not know what they are talking about.

WAKE UP!

Just who sends Christians to war, just who tells them the enemy is across the oceans? Our government is more responsible than any fundamentalist Christian at starting wars.

Some people just hate......the poll even suggested it's Mormons who support civilan attacks.
Read the bottom of this link as to who the polled and how, polls are very misleading, for the most part to show favor of the survey being done.

The only Muslims polled were Muslim Americans...we don't a problem with suicide bombers of a religion in this country (not just Muslims).

For some reason people just don't get this, Islam it's all about religion and nothing else. At least a Christian can walk away from their religion, Islam not so much.
