in response to reader comment: How do I fight back against radical Islam

Mate.. You won't believe how many people feel like you. The answer is critical mass.
Ensure you "know" that Muhommed was a murdering warlord who personally cut the heads off hundreds of people, that he consummated his marriage with a nine year old girl, that he traded slaves, that he told his followers to lie to enable them to kill those on his hit list, that he tells muslims to hide their real thoughts from non muslims, that he tell muslims they cant be friends with non muslims., to be intolerant of other religions, that his glorious battles were mainly raiding caravans for booty... and then he wrote a book that created a supernatural being that inherited all these faults.

But do the journey yourself. Watch and read. Watch "Islam: what the West should know." Read Muhommeds biography by Spencer.

Muslims believe muhommed is the perfect man and should be imitated..
Now, consider that the people who created these fanatics are already shaking in their boots due to islamophobia in the West, which is the "irrational" fear of islam. But "our" fear is not irrational. It is real ... based on Bali, 9/11, London, Madrid, the hate placards, the imams sermons, the suicide bombers, the beheadings. Make them really fear the Frankenstein they have created..

All you have to do is share your feelings and express them to others coherently. The West 's tolerance is well past its use by date. Express yourself in every medium you can think of. Write to politicians and ask them to consider if people who have these irrational beliefs are worthy of being accepted as immigrants. Talk to family and friends. go on talk back radio. Demand that America "urgently" reaches a point where it is self reliant on energy. America's oil purchases is the main source of income that funds this religions growth. ...oh and confront Bush and other politicians to stop the crap about islam being a religion of peace. The sad truth is that a moderate muslims must accept that the bloodthirsty messages of the koran are not the actual words of God.and Muhommed was not a man to be imitated. But that acceptance means they are no longer muslims.

Therefore there are no moderate muslims, only ex muslims.

Lastly. Do everything logically. Don't become a fanatic. Don't express hate or violence. Just follow a course that confronts Islam with its own faults at every opportunity and try to get others to do the same.
