I have always believed that Islam is the most dangerous movement in America and Europe, especially after I read the book, "Why I Am Not A Muslim" written by a former Muslim. There is no excuse for murder, persecution,polygamy,female genital mutilation, beheading,stoning to death,beatings, hangings- in the name of religion. Islam is inherently incompatable with any free society,and this is why democracy does not nor will not take root in the Middle East. Even Turkey, the only country in that region that separated religion from politics, struggles with militant Islam and those that call for a return to Islamic law. Muslims themselves kill each other and bomb their own Mosques in the name of Sunni or Shia belief.

The spread of Islam must be countered with education and truth before it is to late.
