having spent 40 years living and working in many areas of the middle east i have known many muslims. where are all these peacefful ones i keep hearing about? maybe the elites in cairo and abu dhabi like the united states but i can assure you that the man in the street hates our guts. america, you better wake up to the fact that tens of millions of these people hate you the way you would hate a child molester who had just violated your son our daughter. these people are manaical in their rage for you. the liberal press in this country has bent over backwards to portray islam as a peaceful religion that can be blended into american society to co-exist peacefully alongside christianity and judaism. this is impossible and a lie being told to the american people. there is not one muslim country that shares its people with another religion. while they may allow a few churches and synagogues, these are for show only. those that calim to be any other religion other that islam are regularly subjected to pogroms using violence and murder to silence these infidels as they are called by the faithful. make no mistake, islam means to control america. the process has already begun. what just happened in michigan, thanks to the aclu, will soon be coming to neighborhoods near you. think you have a problem now, wait until the public schools across this country start teaching islam to your kids. the weak will immediately fall under its spell and soon america will have home grown terrorists to worry about as well. i am sure i will be branded as a bigot by many who read this. i have lived in the middle east. i have witnessed how angry a muslim mob can be as they burn down a mission and slaughter the priest and nuns there. you may ask how would a westerner know such things. very simple really. i know the customs. my father was mexican so my skin is dark enought o pass for arab. i also speak fluent farsi and arabic. if needed i can pass as arab. i tell you people to warn you. what is coming to america reads only as someone as stephen king could imagine. only this is not fiction but real.
