Response to Mohammed

America does not need Islamic Law to remain what America is. In fact, America became what it has come to be based on Judeo-Christian Law, not Islamic. Your comments only prove what muslims all over wish to achieve, Islamic domination.
The Ottoman empire was able to remain for centuries because it did unite people. But the empire was also cruel. To say it was anything glorious is a lie. Also, the empire was in decline well before WW1. The Islamic world has united once again. And like its start, the uniting comes in the form of blood.

It was not Europe that caused the sick Islamofascist regimes we see in the Middle East today. It was Islam itself. It allows for complete control of its people, you know...rule with a sword. If the people of the Middle East would wake up and stop blaming the Western world for all that is wrong, then maybe they would take a look at their leaders and do something about it. Change can only come from within.
