Truly we have to stop calling a chicken a chicken just because it clucks.

Radical Islam is responsible for the slaughter of untold tens of thousands in the past 10 years alone and, you suggest we get over "Islamophobia". Good luck.

The militant arm of Islam has made their own bed with virulently hate inspired atrocities that literally blanket the globe and you ask for a ceasing of Islamophobia? You have made the bed and remained absolutely silent about the heinous atrocities and support them when Islam gets to be a subtle threat. You call that Islamophobia?

I agree, let's leave the children out of it and only talk of the children that are forced into marriage in Muslim nations. Let's talk of the children born to Christian mothers gang raped by brutal Muslim thugs who call themselves "soldiers" and "policemen". Let's talk of children born to Muslim women brought about through rape on any ol' trumped charges against the women. I see no reason for the very well documented atrocities of Muslims wherever they go to cause any uncalled for fears.

Gosh I just can't see any reason for all the "phobia" over Muslims. The efforts to shut down free press in Europe (succeeding mightily), Canada, and the U.S. don't shoot up any red flags for me. I agree, there is just to much "phobia" over CAIR and similar organizations to bring in Sharia law and shut down free press.

What a joke as we watch freedom of press gradually shut down everywhere "peaceful" or "moderate" Islam" has a presence. I have seen hundreds of pictures of the so-called "peaceful" Muslims parading around in Great Britain with signs blatantly speaking of beheading infidels and suggesting various ways to intimidate the police forces. The fact that police and politicians in once free nations now bend over backwards to accomodate almost anything they want is no indication of implied threats. Naw, I just don't see it.

Don't give me any of that baloney of the acts of an isolated few either. Radical Islam has not only swept through the Middle East and many nations of the Orient but, all over Northern Africa. Christian churches are burned and bombed, the people slaughtered, tortured, raped, and driven from their homes and properties.

What gives us any reason to suspect that Islam is any threat?? I'm with you "Keith", I just don't get it.
