That's a reality these days and I can't even begin to wrap my head around it. I'm genuinely confused and perplexed. Muslims should have to pay a price for what's happening around the world today. I wouldn't object to recording devices or bugs planted in every Muslim school and mosque. If they're teaching that stuff there they need to be stopped. If they object then they must be hiding something.

Yes I do. As far as all that other stuff is concerned I'm only speaking out of my own personal experiences with people. If I was the one conducting these polls those numbers would be far different.

And you know this how? I've been to Jordan and Palestine. From my experience there they're the same as in the west. The real reason there aren't many outside marriages is because there aren't many non-Arabs in those countries. It's nowhere near the melting pot America is. And since our religion doesn't restrict interfaith marriages it's more of a cultural issue, like Tom said, than a religious one.

Money isn't the problem here.

I'll be sure to mention this to my Aunts, Pearl and Susan, and to my uncle Lance. And oh yeah my cousin's wife Brandy when I see them. Lol But, yes, it is rare, especially as you put it "outside the west" which would make it extremely difficult anyways. Just curious, but how many of these people were arrested by Muslims? It's not clear who arrested whom in your shared link.

How can you convert those you're "supposed" to kill? A spouse can not prevent their spouse from practicing their faith. Therefore your reasoning is flawed.

Ever notice how I don't strike back with insults to other faiths? That "disease" taught me not to. It is forbidden. You might want to try that. BTW. If my religion is what you think it is then why are Muslims permitted to marry Jews and Christians?

Lol. I'm dying over here!

LMAO

You're onto something here. Let's wipe out South America to get rid of the drugs, mainly cocaine. Mexico after that to get rid of those pesky illegals. Africa is up next, well because they're black. All of the ME, minus the Israelis, and Indonesia too. That way we will get rid of most of Islam. Afghanistan for their Muslims and heroin. White people for serial killers and WMDs. Did I leave anyone out. Oh yeah, the Chinese. Then we can have our jobs back. India too while we're at it. HEAVY SARCASM in use.

Sorry, but I don't want to go through this topic again. Already have once before in this thread.

I guess lying is a skill, liar.

I'm not suggesting we open the borders. What I am suggesting is a full on withdrawal from the ME in every capacity and secure our borders. On 9/11 they got lucky. Found a weak spot. Let's ensure nothing like that happens again. We won't be able to stop all the attacks but we can prevent the ones that kill people in the 1000s.

By your logic they're doing exactly as they're told.

There isn't just one reason. I'm sure that's a part of it for some.

I've already explained it. I can't think like the terrorists do so I'm not gonna pretend to know that's a concrete answer but innocent lives are lost all the time in our wars in the ME. Maybe, just maybe, these guys want us to feel that pain too. I really don't know.

Our involvement in Iraq and Syria created an environment for terrorism to breed at a faster rate. That's a reality. Whatever it is we're doing isn't working.

Yes. I do. In fact I've said so here. I'm either for a one state or two state solution. Either or. Can't have it the way it is now. Either give the Palestinians equal rights in a one state or go to the '67 borders for a two state.I realize my take on this must be difficult for you to comprehend. It doesn't fit your narrative about me.

I will. As soon as I meet one Muslim that feels like they do. I know 100s of them and not one of them feel that way.

Not gonna happen. No matter what you say. When have I EVER said anything about Israeli citizens? Is honestly a tough thing for you to grasp? Nice thing about posting here, there's a history. Look it up, liar.

A question I've been asking around here for a while.

Please don't misunderstand me. I'm not placing blame on us and us alone. The majority falls on the terrorists. The vast majority, but we haven't helped the matter with our policies. That's a reality. We have never seen this type of attacks this frequently before.

What like 19 of those terrorists were from Saudi Arabia and who did we attack? I understand the attack on Afghanistan, but when you go after Iraq as well that has a certain look to some people. Check my post on identifying. Hence, post 9/11. If I'm talking about post 9/11 and specifically mention post 9/11 why would I talk prior to 9/11?

And furthermore some of you have the inability to grasp the concept of identification. In sports people back someone from their own city or state, because they identify with him. A white guy might root for the white boxer vs the black boxer because he identifies with him. Well it works in other ways too. These guys join these terrorist groups because they see a foreign invader on Muslim land attacking and bombing other Muslims. These people see news reports of innocent Muslim lives being lost and maybe they want others to feel that pain too. I sit here and listen to people blame my religion and I just take it, but I've listened for too long. I searched the Quran for anything at all that might condone these savage acts and can't find it. If I did find it I'd drop the religion in a second. Maybe you guys know something I don't. Prove it to me. Show me where this is condoned and don't take one line out of context.

Well then explain the uptick in activity post 9/11. These things don't happen in a vacuum. You're naive if you think we didn't play a role in the Arab spring.
