Our friends, the Muslims

Folks, I tried to download some pictures showing our friends, the Muslims, but they didn't come across. However, go to the following Snopes.com link and I think you will see something interesting.

These are just more pictures the mainstream media is either too cowardly to show, or have been paid not to show. Either way, it is important for Americans to know what they are up against. The American left thinks that they can deal with these "people" the same way the deal with Europeans who disagree with us. Not so. Show me any other modern group of people who raise their children to commit suicide for their religion; show me any other modern group of people who demand death for insults to their religion. Could you imagine the outrage among the "political elite" of this country if Catholics, or Protestants, or any Christian group, inside or outside the US, mounted the same protests as our loving Muslim brethren? Any Christian would immediately be denounced as a fanatic, and censured or even jailed. And yet, Muslims are given a pass, and we are told we MUST respect their religious beliefs. Hmmmmm...

Let's face it; this is not one world, and it never will be. And while we must respect other people's beliefs, we don't have to agree with them. And we MUST learn to recognize a threat when we see it. And let's not be afraid to say it -- Islam is not a religion of peace, it is a religion that, if America's political elite treated it as they treat Christians, would be considered discriminatory and hate-filled. But the "elite" (and who crowned them "elite?!") refuse to look at Islam through the same magnifying glass they look at Christianity. Intelligent people must wonder why?
Of course, our politically correct left wing nuts will say, "Look how evil Christianity was during the Crusades? Look how many people died in the name of God?"
Good point -- if this were the 1500s. Only the intellectually vacant will attempt to judge the past by the "enlightened" values of today. They teach the Columbus was a murderer and terrorist for coming to America; they claim that our ancestors were evil for taking this country from Native Americans. They say that treating Africans as property was wrong.
By the standards and intellectual advancement we now enjoy, that is true. But the intelligent people among us look at the standards and beliefs of the time period and realize that people were acting in a correct manner for that time.
Sadly, many of the people teaching these beliefs are teaching them to our children -- in public school. They do not teach our children how to contrast the beliefs of that time with those of today; rather, they tell our children how evil our ancestors were, which makes us evil.
Even sadder, those same people don't look at current Islam and apply the same standards.
God, or Allah, or Vishnu, or whoever, save us all.
