LOL. Which "christianity sects" have refused to assimilate in the US, view their non-Christian neighbors with hate, fear, and distrust, and pledge allegiance to their religion before their country which goes against American doctrine?

Remember, cults don't count.

Jews like Danile Pipes are making a living bashing Islam and demonizing Muslims.
Well the Neo Con crowd is demonising muslims in the same way they are demonising of communists during the cold war. Todays muslims are like the communists in the 1950s USA. It must have not been easy if you were suspected of being a communist supporter during the 1950s due to the parionia, and today it not easy living as a muslim in the USA due to the parionia as they fear they would take over.

Even there were Democratic politicians that were labelled communist then the same way some Democratic politicians are labeled muslim today. Its just more scare tactics of the Neocons.

The suspicion of communists was justified then as suspicion of radical Muslims is justified now.

Notice I said radical Muslims. If you are a liberal Muslim who only wants to live in peace and have freedom, most conservatives will welcome you with open arms.

If you praise Osama and call for shariah, then you are not welcomed.

Exactly.

All I can say is Turkey is a turkey.
Turkish Jews have a great deal to be worried about as anti-Semitism is on the rise in Turkey, although AKP condemns anti-Semitism:

“Our Jewish citizens have, as members of the Turkish people, defended, and continue to defend, the right position of Turkey to the utmost," said Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan in a speech last week, adding that “looking with hatred upon our Jewish citizens ... is not acceptable; it cannot be and should never be.”

I read the OP's info a few years ago, maybe from the CIA page or maybe somewhere else I forget. Anyway, I am very glad to see it reprinted here. More people need to wake up and see what is in store for us if we fail to recognize the threat and take steps to counter it.
Can it be stopped? Yes, all it takes is identification of the danger and then people will elect leaders that will resist. Geert Wilders in the Netherlands is an exaple of one who sees the danger and will not submit. His party made a good showing in the most recent election there so there is hope.

I love it when liberals get their panties all bunched up whenever someone "demonizes" Islam and then tries to equate the situation with "but extremist Christians etc. etc. etc." newsflash my kumbaya hippie friends, there has been more death perpretrated by Muslim radicals than Christian radicals the past several decades, stop trying to equate the two sides, it doesn't work. geez, what is the Left's obsession with Islam huh?

I hope you're joking! I think the crusades were the Christian equivalent of today's Muslim global jihad.

Careful, the libs will try to tie present-day radical Muslims with radical Christians that have been dead for 800 years
