In a section which was once heavily Jewish, but is now heavily Muslim, several fires were set in a Synagogue on Tuesday.

Blog: Brussels synagogue torched

Muslims have been making inroads in many European countries, and are doing what Muslims do best, wage war against Jews, Christians, and anyone not Muslim.

Isn't it time we wake up to this fact, and stop the pandering to Islam? We have far too many apologists for Islam in America, people blind to the stated goals of Islam. We have seen the violence in our own country, and it's going to get worse until we wake up.

I am thoroughly repulsed by the fact that the Counsel of American Islamic Relations (CAIR) is in the back pocket of Barack Obama.

If I were President, they'd be relegated to a lemonade stand in Dearborn, Michigan never to be heard from or consulted again.

Unfortunately, ALOT of muslim violence will have to happen on our soil before the ignorant and apathetic masses in America wake up. I personally believe that by the time our "tolerant, politically correct" society wakes up- it will be too late. Look back at 9/11- has it really changed the general perception of Islam in our country? I don't think it has.

This nation was founded on the basis of religious tolerance and freedom but we have allowed foreign interests to hijack our military and way of life. We need to stop pandering to religious fundamentalists and stop supporting Israel and Saudi Arabia-which are both horrible allies. We will be free from terrorism so long as we are not killing innocent women and children in the Middle East-you cannot fight an idea-and even if we defeat ISIS there will be a new group tomorrow-probably funded and trained by The US at some point in time as well.

There is no noble reason for US involvement in The Middle East-anyone that tells you otherwise is just parroting propaganda-whether they are aware of it or not. I am way more concerned with the security of our own borders and the deterioration of the once largest Middle Class in World history than I am of the most violent region in the history of the World that also happens to be on the other side of the planet.

Seems to me a lot of people have no problem with substantially increasing the federal debt so long as it is for defense/ military spending. A lot of people have no problem with boots on the ground, so long as those are other people's boots.

I advocate for the imposition of a Flat War Tax on ALL individual and corporate income. No credits/deductions. Low income and Social Security would be included. 20% off the top should just about cover the cost of being the global leader and paying off some of the accumulated debt associated with decades of prior defense spending that was piled onto the federal debt.

While we are at it, let's reinstitute conscription- no exemptions beyond those who are severely and permanently disabled. Forget about education and/ or religious deferments. It's an opportunity to become employed, reduce obesity and get into top physical shape, earn VA educational benefits and healthcare.

Many folks, particularly liberals, forget that America's creation was based, in part, on Christian ideals and our defense of Israel is rooted deeply in prophecies outlined in the Holy Bible. America did not wake up one day 70 years ago and decide that Muslims were bad. What we did do is help secure the right of Israel, our religious and ideological ally, to exist which is based on the principles and prophecies outlined in the Bible. The defeat of Israel would be the defeat of Judaism and Christianity. America, as a country of Christians and Christian ideals, has promised that it would never stand for that.

American leadership is reticent to refer to this as a "holy war" but that is in fact what it is. And it's based on our commonalities with Israel and the principles and prophesies outlined in the Bible. You'll never hear American leadership say that, though.

All they have to do is quietly take up leadership positions in the government. Violence would still bring the U.S. together, but secretly taking over power in our government is a whole different story.

We could denounce israel as a ally, ignore a all out war that destroyed them, and isis would still want us dead. They would see thst weakness as further proof that we are weak and they will win. This whole thought that they want the middle east only and would leave us alone is nieve. They want to make us convert or die too. Its on thier book. Wake up libs!

A response that quotes the OP gets deleted as being "off topic"? Enjoy your circle jerk, I'm out.
