And What Do Some Muslims Consider To Be The Worst Form Of Terrorism?
If you're operating any heavy machinery right now .... stop. What you're about to read and hear is so completely absurd that you're sure to double over with laughter.
Last week we had a meeting of some group called the " Organization of the Islamic Conference." During their conference the foreign ministers of the member countries decided that they needed, for some reason known only to Allah, to determine just what was the gravest terrorist threat in the world today.
OK ... are you ready? Do you really want to know what these Muslim leaders consider to be the greatest terror threat in the world today?
You asked for it.
The greatest terror threat in the world to day is ...... Islamophobia!
Yup! Now you know! Islamophobia is terrorism! And just how do you define Islamophobia? Well ... it's the "deliberate defamation of Islam and discrimination and intolerance against Muslims." Scares me! Scare you?
You say something defamatory about Islam ... like scoffing at the idea that it is a religion of peace .. and that's terrorism! You show little tolerance for people who call for your death and the death of your country, and that's terrorism! Not only is it terrorism, but it's the worst and most dangerous form of terrorism in the world!
Wait ... we aren't through with the hilarity. The ministers also informed us that "The linkage of terrorists and extremists with Islam in a generalized manner is unacceptable."
Maybe it's just me, but have any of you seen any terrorists around here lately who weren't Muslims?
Sure .. there are some rare exceptions, but generally speaking ALL terrorists are Muslims. The linkage is there. To ignore it is unacceptable, not to mention extremely dangerous.
Now ... before I move on. Let's be fair here. There are some Christians out there who support the idea of shooting doctors who perform abortions, or blowing them up with bombs. So let's not get too cocky here.

As such, these comments automatically and by operation of law constitute racism and hate speech.

Rob, this is an interesting article. Let me play devils advocate for a moment. Just suppose you or I were Muslim, but peaceful and did denounce Islamic terrorists. Do you not think that there is indeed some Islamaphobia in existance here.
As a muslim (if I were one) I would think that I would be stuck between a rock and a hard place. Fear of those that would kill me because I wouldn't support their extremism, and fear of those that would start war against me because I will not/can not stand up to the extemists.

This is true, however, let me give you an example: You see all kinds of marches recently with illegal immigrants marching against immigration reform. Don't hear or see much on the American Citizens that are against amnesty. Doesn't mean we don't exist.
I am sure they are out there, but unfortunately we don't here much about them. And the article laughs at generalizations, but they do happen, and are dangerous. They is like saying that Fred Phelps and his hatemonger followers from the Westboro church represent all christians. It's simply not true.

Freedom, I agree that some Muslim's would think they are between a rock and a hard place but they all say that Islam isn't about violence. I say either walk the walk or shut up about it.

I know what you're saying but the Westboro church and Islamic extremists are in different solar systems in regards to potential impact.

Let's first take a look at the term "Islamophobia"
If we break it down into the two root words "Islam" and "phobia" we find the following:
"Islam" is an ideology that encompasses not only a religious belief but a system of government that has consistantly proven that it cannot function in conjunction with a fully democratic form of government. In other words, it's like trying to mix water and oil.
"phobia" as described by the American Heritage online dictionary is: "A persistent, abnormal, and irrational fear of a specific thing or situation that compels one to avoid it, despite the awareness and reassurance that it is not dangerous."
Please note that the requirements for a phobia are an "abnormal" and "irrational" fear.
Now, let's take a look at the term "terrorism"
Again according to the American Heritage online dictionary
"terrorism" is defined as: "The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons."
So based on these definitions there is no such thing as "Islamophobia" becauese the terrorism used by the jihadists/mujahideen in the name of Islam throughout the world in order to force this Islamic ideology on them, regardless of all their reassurance that it is not dangerous, make any concern or fear legitimate.
Furthermore, this phony claim by this organization is nothing more than a means of providing jihadists/mujahideen throughout the world VALIDATION FOR THEIR TERORIST ATTACKS IN THE NAME OF ISLAM.
26% of young (under the age of 30) U.S. Muslims believe homicide bombings against civilians are OK to "defend Islam," according to a new poll.

I'm sure this is a major concern for the non-Muslims in Rwanda, Sudan, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, etc, etc.
There is NO such thing as Islamophobia because Muslims throughout the world have legitmized every negative thing that has been said against them.

That is the most ridiculous comparison I have ever seen. How does one group of no more than a couple dozen people making fools of themselves on street corners come close to comparing to the number of mujahideen that are committing genocide, suicide bombings, and murder throughout the world in the name of Islam? To even try to make a link there is absolutely sick.

No, it is not. Extremists are cut from the same cloth regardless of religion....
I don't get how conservatives can claim we are in Iraq to help "the people" who are almost entirely muslim....then in the next breath come out saying we have to wipe muslims off the planet or we will never be safe.....
Which is it Mom? What do you support? Are we really in Iraq to help muslim people or are we there to kill them?
