The only thing which will end the conflict is to eliminate islamism and deprogram all the muslims. The koran demands the destruction of non-believers (ok subjugation, conversion or death - freedom of choice i guess)... People born in the middle east have no choice ... children believe what their parents teach them - this is no secret nor a surprise. : No muslim may convert under penalty of allah! And any muslim who blasphemes is again subject to allah's wrath. With this in mind, is it any wonder why the people can say nothing? They are terrified of this cult and i can't blame them. ...

islam demands obedience to the koran, demands followers to destroy non-believers (see above), forbids muslims from leaving islam, and forbids any discussion of the matter period! . The choice is clear... All of the people of earth (and i suppose any future planetary colonies if we get that far) must become islamic or islam must be eliminated. koran allows for no other options. i didn't write it, but that's the fact.
