Wrong.

Islam is no existential threat to us no matter what we do.

On the other hand, they can certainly pull off a 9/11 every now and then.

I for one would like to avoid as many of those as I can. How about you?

No - I honestly think vast majority of muslims are not loons - but a minority is. The rest happen to live in countries with zero freedom and may be too scared to say anything.

When it is fake, absolutely.

But I actually have lived in a Muslim country before. Guess what? Most of it is not fake.

No. I wouldn't.

Are you asserting all Muslims act this way???

I thought only a tiny minority are extremists?

And to do so you think nothing should be done to upset them,up to quashing freedom of speech??

To add,Islam certainly had something to do with making those 3000 dead on 9/11 no longer exist...
