http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-864522917532871834anybody seen it?it scares me.the world is only set to become more dangerous and intolerant.all these people are not muslims. i felt like beating the shit out that dude at 6:34. especially for the bullshit he uttered at 7:15. and he seemed like a white convert. converts tend to be a lot more extreme than the average born-muslim.anyway, the ultra-PC liberals will play it down and dismiss it as a hate-film.

I don't feel like watching your video. But I guess it is scary. No. Our free society cannot be destroyed from the outside by Jihadism. The only way would be if most of us gave up on protecting freedom in the name of security, after-which we will have neither. Islam is not a threat to western society, it never can be unless we ourselves make it a threat by sacrificing western values in the name of waging war upon it.

I watched the video in the link.The threat posed by attacks from radical Muslims inside the country is something of which I'm aware. It gets worse in parts of Europe. But as a threat to the fundamentals of Western civilization, I'm still not seeing it.Worst-case scenario, homegrown terrorism leads to widespread distrust of the Muslim community followed by restrictions of civil liberties targeted at the same. As the threat wanes, we start to feel really bad about it, restore the liberties, and pay a bunch of people a lot of money. Essentially what happened in the 40's to Japanese Americans, although I don't see myself buying an Afghan car in my lifetime.Along those lines...

No, we can talk about whatever we feel like. This is an internet forum, longer conversations have been had over even more silly subjects. However, joining Act for America is more effort than this deserves. If these individuals commit crimes then the information you have can be used against them to prove motive. However, best I can see the individuals living in America that you are referring to have committed no crime and it is unclear that they intend to do so. If their sole intent is to talk and spread the ideals of radical islam through non-violent means then they should be left alone until law enforcement has probable cause that a crime is being committed. Again, the reason I say this is because the ideas they are trying to spread will not spread. Radical islam is a failed idiology by modern standards. Radical islam is far less likely to conquer America than the many communists, trenchcoat mafia, pacifists, or radical christians waiting in the edges of subcultures.

Being muslim does not grant them access to the public treasury. If we assume everything you have said is true then your course of action should be to lobby the legislature to stop funding schools that are not owned by the department of education. If they refuse then contact the voters in that area. Either way, such would be a local matter, what are you doing bringing it to our attention? In the case of education, there are bigger problems than spreading Islam that we are trying to deal with. What is happening in Minesota is an experiment with charter schools, which I support completely. If the cost is a few children going Islamic then I'd gladly pay it to break up the government's education monopoly. This is not a violation of church and state because the tax dollars are not going to the school but to the students, whose parents just happen to have chosen a religious school. Go start your own christian school, or school of Satan Worship, I will similarly defend your school's right to charter status. To state again, what someone wants to do to the country is irrelevant. They will fail no matter how many mosque/schools they build, because the only parents that will send their children there are already islamic. As such, their only hope to reform the country along islamic lines is to breed us out, which is unlikely given the reproductive tendencies of our latino catholics.

Yeah, that's good. I just think it's strange that the same guy that was deported from Turkey for plotting to overthrow the government is actually living in America. And he is actually sponsoring 90 public charter schools in the US that are religious in nature particularly to Islam. I think it's good to question his actual motives, especially when he has spoken about moving "into the arteries of the system without anyone noticing your existence until you reach all the power centers." I think that is somewhat alarming. Not to say that it will happen, but it's always good to pay attention.
4/11/2009 8:38:20 PM
And I do not think it is good to question his motives. He does not hold any public office. Therefore, the only motive anyone cares about is legality. And there, the only people that should care is law enforcement; you, me, and his neighbors should grant him the same presumption of peace that we give each other. There is nothing about him being islamic that makes his desire for power alarming. We would all like power, afterall. And it is only natural for no one to notice you until you attain it, such as a city council election. This country is filled with ambitious people, and that is the point: whatever ambition the muslims bring to the table will be counteracted by the ambition of everyone else eager to tell their neighbors how to live.

^ ok, but don't you think that if you actually explicitly say this:
4/12/2009 7:33:02 AM
I think you misunderstand why people seek power. The vast majority of people seek power for its own ends. (I don't want to be president because I'd be good for the country, but because gosh darn it I want to be President!)As such, anyone seeking power is the enemy of everyone else seeking power and therefore will use whatever power they have to keep others from power. Therefore, since it is easier to push down than it is to pull yourself up, everyone that gained real political power did so by moving "into the arteries of the system without anyone noticing your existence until you reach all the power centers." Turning to motive, why would you assume that "subjugating the American people to my ends" is not the goal of most seeking power today in America? Do you think George Bush would have truely objected if his voice had been the only one that mattered? Do you think Obama enjoys cowtowing to the multitude of power centers in America?But again, this is all beside the point. The American political system like all political systems only operates at the willfull acceptance of the populace. (Sadam Hussain was dictator because the Iraqi people accepted him as a dictator). The radical islamist in question would get no where with American citizens. The police would refuse to enforce his laws, the courts would strike his laws down, the people would marginalize him, other politicians would wreck him for their own ends (he would be their crusade with the public). Whatever his goals and whatever tools his has at his disposal a radical islamic America will not be the outcome for all the reasons I have stated in this thread which you have not bothered to counter beyond "but he means to do it!" So what, someone I met in college sought to make himself nazi dictator of the whole world, should you worry? [Edited on April 12, 2009 at 11:17 AM. Reason : .,.]

0EPII1 doesn't come from here, so he is not used to how our systems work. That's why he thinks they can snap their fingers and suddenly take over, and that's why he is naturally inclined to crack down on basic freedoms.[Edited on April 12, 2009 at 12:57 PM. Reason : .]

That's pretty much the same kind of hype video you'll find against Scientology, Communism, etc. It's just one guy with an opinion.OMG, one master document that will step-by-step show how to destroy america!!11I loved the part where it would zoom around to different sentences in the document that said controversial things.

^^^ I agree with you that it would be almost impossible for a radical Muslim who wants to impose Shariah on the US to succeed. But it can happen... not now, but maybe a couple of centuries later.^^ I clearly said they can snap their fingers and take over. Pls. And yes, I know exactly how democracy works, and the institutions within it, including law enforcement, courts, etc. And that's one of the reasons everybody should be concerned, even though it might take a couple of centuries or more to take over; they already have Shariah courts in a few European countries. Yes, I know there are differences between Europe and the US, but the basic principles of democracy are the same there and here. If it can happen there, it can happen here. Shariah courts first, what second, and third, etc? And yeah, I want to crack down on basic freedoms... You obviously don't fucking know anything about me, in that case. I also force my British Caucasian wife to have sex with me every four days (as per the new Afghani Law), never let her leave the house, and I have already chosen a husband for my 5 week old daughter.I think we can lay this thread to rest now... everybody has given their opinions, and the dialogue -- if there ever was one -- has stagnated.[Edited on April 12, 2009 at 8:09 PM.

Then the discussion turns to why you are concerned with what might happen centuries from now? As I have said, radical islam is what we call a subculture, it will not dominate, not even centuries from now, thanks to the reproductive nature of our latino catholic population. You have presented nothing to suggest that their efforts at conversion of non-muslims is working any better than the conversion to hinduism or scientology. But, for the sake of discussion, let us stipulate to that. Now, is that a bad thing? Is the presence of Sharia courts in Europe really so appalling that people seeking their use should be prevented? It is a tennent of democracy that the majority gets to set policy, and if the majority of Americans choose to impliment Sharia wholesale a few centuries from now, who are we to complain? We will all be dead by then, so you cannot argue that it harms your sensibilities. And you cannot argue that it will harm your great grandchildren's sensibilities, since we have stipulated that by then they will probably be pro-Sharia muslims. So, what is your objection? Yes, as I explained earlier such a society would be poorer in every respect, but is it not their right to choose poverty? Who are you to impose your will upon a future people by attempting to silence the messenger? From a pragmatic perspective, as their message is in every way a poor substitute for western culture, then attempting to suppress their message will grant them both credibility and stature among the American populace. Afterall, nothing discredits a bankrupt philosophy more than its implimentation.
