If you are placing multicultural and interfaith interests above the safety of your country you are in deep trouble. Associating the Democratic party with Islamist organizations like CAIR is backwards. REAL Muslim activists are fighting against brutal Islamic theocracy, not the USA.

American Muslims enjoy greater rights, freedoms and privileges than in ANY Muslim country.If you don't already know the damage that's been caused by the spread of Islamism throughout Europe it's because the national media has effectively blotted it out. No one is hurt more by this naive brand of culturally relative progressivism than Muslims. All is not "equally brutal" between secular Western society and Islamic theocracy. Islamism is far more right wing and fascist than anything happening on the Western right. If you truly care about Muslims then speak against deceptive Islamists (who call themselves "activists") already working to impose Islamic laws and customs into the West.

Support the ACTUAL Muslim activists putting themselves at great risk to REFORM Islam, speaking against racism, homophobia, the oppression of women and Islamofacism. Don't be silenced by manufactured claims of "Islamophobia." If we don't get a grip on this now the world your children inherit will be remarkably less "liberal" than the one you appear to take for granted. Muslims in America are doing pretty well. But if you don't stand up for the principles of freedom it will be easy for the Islamists to take it from you.
