The truth needs to come out about Islam and Sharia Law, which alot of muslims do not want to live by, especially the women. Its hard for alot of muslims because they do live by their faith and are hard-working, god fearing people, but there are so many radicals who distort and abuse their faith. We are all much better people for being educated on History and what drives ideologies and hatred. Dr. Pipes is certainly correct, when he says the Left who hate Capitalism and Islam are working together. If the mindset of peace loving people doesn't realize what is going on, the combination of the two factions will result in disastrous changes for all peoples.

The United States for the most part has been a humanitarian country, the aid that is given to other countries as well as military support is astronomical. The Latest aggression against Israel is due to the Obama pro-Palestinian attitude. Israel is not to blame for all the problems in the Middle East as well as the US is not to blame for all the problems either. One must understand that chaos and fake problems are issued against Islam's opponents to create attacks and plant ideas into peoples minds. Its too bad that so much of the public has been brain washed by the Radicals in Islam, thats what they're counting on.
