I did, and still do want a citation, since it's such extreme rhetoric that appears to be nothing more than desparate Republican fear-mongering aimed at keeping their jobs. > I simply pointed out there is an error in assuming all the posts made on > websites by Jihadists represent a genuine mindset. That's the point I was trying to make. She seems to be unwilling or unable to critically evaluate the source of the information without applying a severely slanted political filter. And since this issue is the very crux of the terrorism problem, I'd like to critically evaluate them for myself. Like I've said, *my* personal experience is that, to a man/woman, every Muslim I've ever met and conversed with (perhaps a hundred) has given me the impression that Islam is a very peaceful religion, and that while violent, the extremists represent an extreme minority. The rhetoric that she appears to have bought into does seem to be just that--the ranting of a single Jihadist on a website. Hardly a reliable indicator of the extent of the problem. > If I come across a website with an essay from a Christian explaining how > all Muslims should be killed You mean like some of the more extreme points of view in this discussion? > to make the world safer, am I to assume that is an authorative viewpoint? > >> but you can use any random sound extraction >> from any Democrat who is desperately trying to win the election >> in four weeks? > > When have I done this? If I have it wasn't intentional and I apologise. Again, probably me she's referring to. > Even if I have done this though, how does that invalidate what I said? Another smokescreen. The things I've been saying don't lead to the conclusion that we must give up everything in order to save ourselves. I think there's a slightly higher standard for her extremist rhetoric.

However, Muslims may think > they are. (In fact non-Christians often do think they are). In fact, I think the Christian extremists that are running the political party that is currently in power in this coutry *are* threatening my way of life. They're putting our country in danger by attacking countries that are no threat, and are using Chicken Little tactics to try to convince the American public that we are under such threat that we should hand over our Constitutional rights without question. Terrorists have not remotely threatened my way of life. My own government *has*. >> I have a couple scenarios that can make an >> irrecoverable mess or a middle mess that would take a couple >> hundred years to clean up.

Yeah, and I can come up with scenarios where little green men from Mars come down to Earth and take away our toaster ovens. I suggest we bomb Mars into oblivion just to make sure they don't. Oh, yes, and every American will be subject to daily household searches just to make sure they're not harboring one of these Martian Extremists, who hate us for our toaster ovens, and want to destroy our society. > I can think of 56 million reasons why an external source couldn't destroy > the UK civilisation.

It is phenomenallly paranoid. > Civilisations have been destroyed in the past - I cant think of any which > have fallen as the result of insurgent / terrorist methods. No, but I can think of several that have fallen apart because their government became corrupt and eroded peoples' rights all in the name of keeping power when they should not have been able to. > The west appears to be busy dismantling the things which make Western > Civilisation good.

How fragile that sounds. And yet, it is no stranger than assuming that Islam wants to destroy our society. Eric Lucas
