This thread scares me.

And it has nothing to do with Muslims.

Wow, this is just....rampant paranoia & neurosis. So you're trying to indoctrinate others like you think perhaps Muslims are trying to do? I'm curious if you actually know & are friends w/any muslims. If you aren't, well then you really can't lump them into the extremist group, can you? And if you do, I assume those that you do know are not of that group, so how do you think they would feel that you come on here & group them w/a bunch of extremists? I'm sure they wouldn't be too happy. I know muslims, I've dated a couple of them in my life. No way are they what you talk about. And they are moderate: they're not insane about their belief & they're not complete passive either. Nor are their families. It is possible to be a muslim & not be a crazy extremist.

Nothing against your post, it just occurs to me in light of some of the harsh posts about Christians on this forum, that if you substitute "Christian" for "Muslim", I'd bet it would be just as reasonable and sensible, but lots of people would jump all over it. Why is the above acceptable, and the paragraph below not?

Here's the text with the substitution, just as an interesting exercise:

I don't care what you hear or read, it's not realistic.
Islam originated in Arabia in the early 7th century. It does draw some teachings from the same source as the old testament. It's here. Feel free to ignore it.

No more nude and topless beaches like in France. Liquor stores will be outlawed.

Jews will have to toe the line, atheists won't exist or will have to be in hiding. Free speech - no way.

There are plenty of examples right now how life is under Islam - Saudi Arabia, Yemen, the Sudan, Iran, Pakistan. They do see themselves as the religion of peace because once Sharia law is established for everyone, that will be a kind of utopia they say, where everyone lives in harmony because no one dissents.
Like the madman of Tehran says, 'there are no homosexuals in Iran.

For an exhibition of Islam today visit the website for the movie Obsession - Radical Islam's War Against the West. Unfortunately, it's no longer free but with the help of a few friends, a viewing is possible.

Do watch the available movie trailers while there.

Hopefully the current economic depression will fuel anti-immigrant sentiment and stop the flow. Then white people will be able to start breeding again.
