Free choice = Muslim-free airlines

Submitted by Miriam (Australia), Aug 16, 2006 at 01:39

I want to exercise my free choice to travel on a Muslim-free airline or at least certain designated airplanes within an airline company. I for one would happily pay a little extra for that privilege. I don't care if it is not politically correct to demand this, but the Muslim world has totally lost my trust. Surely I have a right not to associate with people from a group that is potentially dangerous.

I also believe that all Muslim immigration to the US and the West should be stopped to protect our citizens. This should be precise and selective without any apologies. We are in a war, and precautions must be taken.

If this is tough on Muslims who are neither terrorists or Islamist sympathizers, - that is just too bad! While not all Muslims support terror, all terror acts of a global nature are carried out by Muslims. This points to much that is terribly wrong with Islam itself, in its very essence. Perhaps when it hurts Muslims enough, they will start pushing for real changes and updates to their warmongering texts and clerics. Without major changes, this is just a dangerous death cult and political movement hiding under a cloak of something called 'religion'.
