Either you are trying to be coy, or are disgustingly naive. If you are actually that I'll informed, you won't survive what lies ahead when Iran becomes bold enough to attack Israel.

Are you claiming that you have lived in Muslin countries? Looking at your past postings, I don't see that you did.

True, I did not 'live' in the countries I named. Yet, I did meet people and interact with them. I entered various Mosques (including the wonderful mosques in Istanbul), without people casting stones at me.

What, in your opinion lies ahead?

Yes I was born and lived majority of my life in a Muslim country.

If you are in compliance with Sharia Law during your visits I dont see any reason for people casting stones at you.

When you live in a Muslim country for some years only then you will realize that Infidels do not have equal rights and are officially second-class citizens of the State. Also a Muslim cannot openly be an Atheist among many many other issues.

As I have previously stated, my wife is Jewish, but instead of running off to the Middle East, her family was smart enough to emigrate to the United States. It's not our responsibility to protect those who decided not to come here. America first and last in my opinion.

You Apologist are nutty. For someone whom holds "equal" disdain for all organized religion you sure spend most of your time defending Islam at the expense of other organized religions. Take a look at the majoity of terrorist organizations around the world. Whats the commonality? They're Christian, Buddhist and Hindu

It doesn't take a brain surgeon to see who the biggest threat is.

Israel seemingly has no problems handling hostile surrounding states. Godspeed to them.

But that's no reason to make their enemies OUR enemies.
Do you think that their enemies are friends with any of our buddies? Really?

I'm only defending Islam, because it's the only religion under attack in this thread. I'm against organized religion, but I never discriminate against anyone based on religion with the exception of the Westboro Baptist church. I believe that religion has no plaçe anywhere in politics or business especially when it comes to foreign relations. The only discrimination I've seen in this thread is against Muslims, and I know enough about religion to know that such behavior goes against the very basic teachings of all religions. Think to yourself, WWJD?

Well, as a former Christian, current Athiest, I dont believe JC was the son of god or even that he existed at all. If he did exist I would like to think he was a man of peace. Mohamad on the other hand was a illiterate warring Slaver and a child molester as admitted by his followers. Anyway, we all know Christianity is going away and Islam is growing, and unfortunately is showing its increasing violent side on every livable continent.

How about when the religion through the Koran pushes raping non Muslim little girls on up and uses Sharia to kill and abuse women and children along with many Christians and Jews NOW?

It is being hit hard on this and other sites because the fruit that comes off the tree of Islam is poisonous.

It's not ignorance, it's pure hatred. Nothing will ever get through to them. Look at the anti-vaccine people, nothing will ever convince them that vaccines are safe. These people have information all around them yet none of them choose to seek it out and even if they did the opposing viewpoint would not change their beliefs.
