A lot of this assumes that the pollsters and the people being polled know what Al-Qaeda's real goal is, and I don't think they do. I think Al-Qaeda's real goal is to create fundamentalist Islamic governments everywhere from Pakistan in the east, all through the Middle East, and including Turkey, all across north Africa to Morocco on the Atlantic coast, and if they can, up into Spain and Portugal, and into eastern Europe at least up to the boundaries of the old Austro-Hungarian Empire. They want to recover all the territories that Islam once ruled, and they think fundamentalism is the way to do it. And they think that because--and I'm certain this is the Taliban calculation too--they're convinced that Islamic empire fell because it allowed western influences to subvert it even as it conquered, so God turned his face away from them. For a fundamentalist Muslim the calculation is simple: return to the old ways and God will take care of everything else, Islam will be returned to its former glory and power.
Actually, they have stated that their goal is a worldwide caliphate several times.

...until you nicely ressurected it....:)

Please! Allow me to resurrect it!

GOPHER!

Perhaps you would like to debate the lovely qualities of gentle Islam with Ayaan Hirsi Ali............if it is not too much for you. Mind you, the former Dutch MP has had some experiences that might make you a little uncomfortable......such as having her clitoris cut off, having her family attempt to force her into an arranged marriage (in Canada, no less), having her friend and collaborator murdered on a public street in Holland by a radical Muslim, and having lived with death threats and fatwas against her continued existence...............

But, don't let that distract from your wonderful defense of the "religion of peace".

God knows you've made up your mind, one perhaps wastes their time attempting to confuse you with the facts.

Colpy,

Haven't we gone through all this bigotted sh*t enough times already?

Did Muslims kill 10 million girls in India in the past 20 years?

Didn't you read my links showing how fanatical Hindus have killed so many more Christian missionaries than did fanatical Muslims?

Did you read the many links posted by others showing how Muslims have been victimized by Christians and Zionists?

Will your hatred for Muslims ever end???

How many more Islamophobic threads must we have on this forum??? Note how Sanctus (a normally intelligent writer) never bothered to answer my challenges because the thread's topic is so obviously a fraud.

When will the bigotry on this forum ever come to an end???
