Islam. A religion of peace and love? Really ? So why are we all so very afraid to stand up and criticize? You know the answer to that question.

Editor's notes: Understand that Islam came into existence some 600 years After Christ. You simply cannot read the first 60 (or so) pages of the Koran without noting the murderous angst against Christians and Jews. A religion of "peace and love ?????" Try these very typical stories on for size and ask yourself "where are the hordes of protesting Muslims." Where are those who want Islam and Christianity to co-exist? We can accept that modern day Muslims want peace and co-existence but until and unless they stand up and move to disassociate themselves from their radicalized counterparts, their claims for peace will ring hallow. The black vendor in New York who called the police about the bomb ladened vehicle? He was [is] a Muslim. This country needs to see millions more of folks like that street vendor. -- jds

From Human Events:

And so while official Washington pretends that Islam teaches peace and tolerance, a Pakistani Muslim last week reportedly called two Christian boys in his employ, Waqas and Zeeshan Masih, a derogatory term for Christian, and then beat them with an iron rod for missing a day of work. He killed Waqas, 14, and seriously injured Zeeshan, 12. Meanwhile, a 14-year-old Christian girl, Sumera Pervaiz, endured five days of torture after being falsely accused of stealing from the home of her employer, a Wing Commander in the Pakistani Air Force.

Another Pakistani Christian, Marwat Masih, was savagely beaten and sodomized by a Muslim mob earlier this month. Marwat Masih is a barber and he committed the heinous crime of cutting a Muslim’s beard.

In Iraq Sunday, Islamic jihadists exploded two bombs near buses full of Christian students, killing one and murdering over one hundred. Last week in Indonesia, thousands of enraged Muslims destroyed numerous cars, burned down several buildings, and attacked a Christian center. What goaded them to this insane frenzy? There were rumors that the Christians were going to build a church. Islamic law forbids Christians to build new churches or repair old ones. end of text. Read the full article here.

Editor's notes: ever heard of Darfur ? The slaughter that is ongoing in that country is primarily about Muslim violence against the Christian community. Consider that the National Education Agency funded an artist who placed a Christian cross into a sealed jar of human urine and called it "art." Take an image of the "Prophet" Muhammad, seal it into a jar of urine and see what happens. Better yet, announce it and leave your home address at the bottom of the announcement. Get the point? In case you missed it, I just won the debate. -- jds.
