I have a very big problem with your ... diatribe, if, as you say, Islam is so great, the way of life for a muslim so pure, filled with love and peace and Allah is wonderful, why are thousands of you flocking to the west claiming asylum from countries and people you so hate and yet denouncing the countries you rejoice as true Islamic states?

Just to make sure I have things correct, you live in America, you are a devout muslim, you hate everything the decadent west stands for and you have yet to buy your ticket to muslim utopia Saudi Arabia, Iran, Pakistan or any other country that you believe is living life correctly according to the Qu'ran, well Mohammod you've got me beat!

Perhaps it's because you only like some bits of the Qu'ran, you know the westernised version, where you scream and cry at being a victim of a non muslim country, of course you'll have applied for and received US citizenship, or you could have been born there but here's a thing you should appreciate, just because you were born in a stable it doesn't make you a horse. Maybe you should give serious consideration to relocating to a far more idyllic place where like minded people will welcome you with open arms and you will never have to put up with those of us you consider communist and they will also appreciate your interpretation of the Qu'ran!
