Right. Sometimes they pretend for a while, but if they seem to be considering a peaceful solution, it most likely means they're simply buying time to regroup for the next attack... always been like that.
Are you freaking serious? What is wrong with you?
Thankfully I don’t know one person that feels this way. I could certainly never be friends with anyone that believed this. Ugh!!!
Border security and better immigration laws would help. The Constitution has only one sentence about religion. It says: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of a religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof”. But America has never defined what a religion is. Most assume it’s a personal quest for spiritual development that transcends worldly governments. But the end goal of Islamic jihad groups around the world is the establishment of an Islamic government with the Sharia laws from the Quran and teachings of Mohammad.
lol - musta touched a couple of nerves. Please feel free to suggest the Muslims and Jews sit around the camp fire and sing a couple of versus of Kumbaya and maybe make some s'mores. After all that has worked so well up to date.
I am no constitutional lawyer, and I am definitely no fan of Islam, but I would be amazed if the Supreme Court would support the deportation of an American citizen because of his or her religion. On the other hand the PEW Research Center estimated the US Muslim population to be 3.45 million in 2017, and growing. Ouch!
I meant to respond to this sooner but lost track of it since I read it while on my tablet and hate to respond with more than one sentence when I'm on it. So I searched until I found it. One thing is for certain ElCastor, I cannot eradicate your experiences with Islam and Muslims and since I've lived as a Muslim who has experienced things differently than in other countries, you can't eradicate mine. Because my experiences have been totally different, it doesn't mean I don't acknowledge the injustices Muslim women in other countries face. Not only do I know about it, I abhor it !
Of course I am aware of endless atrocities committed by Caucasians over the decades, but I am also conscious of the fact that those Caucasians long ago abandoned the Spanish Inquisition and killing in the name of their religion. I sincerely wish Islam would do the same, but this I regret is an endless argument that will never be resolved.I wonder, have you looked for a list of killings by Caucasians over the decades? This includes all people of color...Native Americans, Africans, African Americans, Hispanics, etc. Have you looked for a list of religious wars, other than Islamic, that took thousands, if not millions of lives? Inquiring minds want to know.
My point is and has been that all Muslims shouldn't be lumped in the category of those who commit atrocities such as Hamas starting this war with Israel !! I know so many people who's interactions with Muslims have been positive and describe us as "nice, peaceful people". I consider our interaction a discussion, not an argument. Perhaps in your fact finding quest, you should check out what percentage of Muslims of the world are peaceful and what percentage are not? Stereotyping based on negative qualities and deeds is not cool no matter what race, religion and nationality is being referred to!
Your use of the word "Caucasian" seems to have escaped the notice of most people here. It is a racist term and I think you know that.I meant to respond to this sooner but lost track of it since I read it while on my tablet and hate to respond with more than one sentence when I'm on it.

I've mentioned this before, but the men who oppress their wives are not following the teachings of Islam! They are exercising power over them because they can and the practice is so ingrained that it's like a cancer that has spread throughout those countries. The Quran gave women certain rights and Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) who's Hadiths Muslims advised men to treat their wives kindly, if they are faithful. There is mention of beating them "lightly" if they commit adultery and I guess you know that Sharia law permits stoning them to death. Here are 15 rights as mentioned in the Quran and Hadiths that should not be denied but unfortunately, they are.

And all white people shouldn't be called racists and all Jewish people shouldn't be hated because of their religion. There is a lot of hate to go around in this world and the best way to end it is to stop playing the victim card.
Please don't buy into the use of the word "caucasian." It is a racist, derisive name for white people.
How about endless atrocities committed by blacks against other blacks? How about the black Africans who sold other black Africans into slavery? How about the first slave owner in the Colonies was a black man?I meant to respond to this sooner but lost track of it since I read it while on my tablet and hate to respond with more than one sentence when I'm on it.

I've never heard - nor personally felt - that the term Caucasion is a racist one.
Redirecting attention using whataboutisms neither erases nor justifies the horrific, brutal injustice of centuries of slavery in America.
Google is your friend.
I was never made aware that it is a racist term! How so? Who made that determination and how was it made? I'm going to ask my BFF of 46 years, who is White, what she thinks about it.
The term “Caucasian” has a complicated history and is considered by some to be a racist term. The term was first used in the late 1700s by German philosopher Christoph Meiners, who believed in the pseudoscientific theory of scientific racism. Meiners thought that people from the Caucasus region had the “whitest, most blooming, and most delicate skin” and viewed non-Caucasians as inferior and “animal-like.” German scientist Johann Blumenbach added to Meiners’ theories, saying that people from Georgia were the most beautiful on Earth; therefore, it must have been the birthplace of humanity.
WTH do you know?! You are new here. There are huncreds of threads and discussions you couldn't possibly have read through.I'm well aware of the history of atrocities by all races & nationalities, which is why I made the points that I did. Congratulations! You have set the record for the fastest "newbie" gets put on ignore.
Google it.
Oh, hon, I know a whole lot. I know that racists come in all colors and I know that playing the race card is a cop out. You do not know how long I’ve been here as I may just have a new account. One thing I know for absolute certainty is you are very, very toxic and I’ll wager I am not the only one who has blocked you. Ta ta.WTH do you know?! You are new here.

I also find it interesting that people seemingly walk on eggshells around you. I bet you love that.
Good advice, and one that I have already taken. Check this out. The endless violence around the world documented here is typical, and pre-dates the current battles, battles which began with the murder of more than 1200 Israeli civilians and tourists in the initial Hamas attack.
