Well, come to think of it, that's pretty much what folks said about Bush and his views about Saddam and al-Qaeda.

Idiot.

Maybe he and Obama can get together with Justin and search for the underlying causes of Islamic terrorism.

Hopefully they do it in the jungles of Nigeria.

Everybody already knows the underlying causes of terrorism, look up look way up, it's the pricks at the top of the human crust. Yer their friend.

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries!
Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia
in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many
countries, improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods
of commerce and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the
Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and
refinement, the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan
law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as
a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the
faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.


Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence of the religion
paralyzes the social development of those who follow it. No stronger retrograde
force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant
and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising
fearless warriors at every step, and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the
strong arms of science, the science against which it (Islam) has vainly struggled,
the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”

Thought I'd get it out while I am still allowed to do so.

Why Isn’t Canada Taking Action to Find More Than 1,000 Missing Aboriginal Women?

A recent report from the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) has found reports of more than 1,000 missing or murdered aboriginal women in the country. Eighty-seven percent of these women are mothers. “If you put it into context, it means that over the last 30 years, 40 aboriginal women and girls didn’t — every year — did not come home to see their families,”
And we expect someone to do something about these Nigerian girls when we can' take care of our own.

Upon skimming through the thread titles immediately visible on the Forum I found nothing on the 270 odd girls who were kidnapped in Nigeria.

Yes it took awhile to make it to the forum didn't it?

I guess we didn't want to offend and such.

I wonder if we'd all be so concerned about this story were it 200 Western white girls who'd been kidnapped.

I know. The tact and delicacy of this forum continually surprises and reassures me.

Nope. We're too busy denying that white Christians do stuff every bit as horrible.

I never mentioned what colour or religion the perpetrators would be. I just mentioned the colour of the girls.

Had 200 white Western girls been kidnapped it would not receive the same amount of coverage in the Western media as this does, and there would not be many Z-list celebs making those annoying "selfies" in which they hold up those silly placards saying "Bring Back 'Our' Girls" (Our Girls that they have never met and don't even know personally).

Bill Maher Battles Arianna Huffington over Islam - " Liberals Too PC to Ever Condemn It " - YouTube

I can't STAND Bill Maher, but someone hit him with a Sensible Stick before this argument.

ISLAM is the problem.

Here is some reality for you. Remember Muslims make up 1/4 of the world's people.....and what fraction of the terrorist murders?? And it does not even count the honour killings, the slavery, the FGM, the clear and integral persecution of women, the execution of gays, the murder of apostates and blasphemers....

Your contention is beyond ridiculous.
