Islam:

Submitted by Larry Mitchell (United States), Apr 26, 2007 at 18:06

I had the misfortune of reading the Koran over 46 years ago while stranded in an airport in Japan. It was a paperback, amid several month old newspapers and magazines. In keeping with your readers/responders criteria--I'll skip 99.999% of my totally negative comments about Islam! Except to say--it's goal is worldwide domination by ANY means! To put Islam in a "nutshell"--without quoting the actual "verse"--the Koran states that when Islam is in control anywhere--one has three choices: 1. Convert to Islam 2. Pay Tribute 3. DIE! PERIOD!

This has been, and is being, carried out in various places of the world--to the "blind-eyes" of the West! Racism? Intolerance? Bigotry? Islam INVENTED these! Worse, they practice it worldwide to this day--including within AMERICA! Yet, Muslims, DEMAND "freedoms" from these "three"--while living in a CHRISTIAN NATION--AKA AMERICA! In a "perfect world"--the only thing I agree with about Saudi Arabia, is the ONLY religion TOLERATED is ISLAM! I wish this were true in America--that CHRISTIANITY was the only religion tolerated in America! To Muslim responders: There are those of us out here who know who you REALLY are! AND--WE--are NOT deceived! And, oh, spare me, the "Crusader" bit!
