Reader comment on item: [Fixing] Islam's Image Problem

Submitted by Ruth Lowry (United States), Aug 1, 2003 at 16:50

Many of U.S. politicians are residing in "la-la-land." It is one thing to respect another's religion, and yet another thing to ignore the dangers posed by adherents of a false interpretation of a religion, that vows death and destruction to all who do not follow their beliefs and practises, and openly have uttered such statements throughout history as, "CONVERT OR DIE," "IF YOU DO NOT BELIEVE AS I DO, YOU ARE AN INFIDEL!" Among other things, this is an INSULT to every religion other than the fanatical Muslims interpretation of ISLAM.

Daniel Pipes of course is a danger to those adherents of fanatical Islamism who make no secret of their intention of Islamicizing every nation in existence ... America included. They are aleady at work, right here in the "too good" U.S.A.: unbeknownst to the likes of "politically polite" bureaucrats who ally themselves with such cunningly clever people. Those who "debunk" Daniel Pipes, should rather read his works and take some classes with him. He knows the enemy. Too many of our "leaders" do NOT. I hope they find out in time to stem the flow of the "America must become Islamic" movement.
