		<description>&quot;The infamous Nazi rallies are never described as Christian events because most Christians are disgusted with the Nazis.&quot;

Apparently Muslims aren&#039;t too disgusted with Nazism. Because radical Islam was BORN from Nazi influence and &quot;Mein Kampf&quot; is the biggest selling, non-Koranic book in the Muslim world today!

Sorry, but Muslims defame themselves with this kind of stuff.</description>

		<description>&lt;b&gt;Media Legitimizes Islamic Extremists While Defaming Muslims&lt;/b&gt;

On October 29, 2007, Texas court held a hearing on &lt;a href=&quot;http://muslimsagainstsharia.blogspot.com/2007/10/islamists-attempt-to-quash-free-speech.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;TRO filed against Joe Kaufman&lt;/a&gt;. The next day the Internet was flooded with the following headlines:
&lt;b&gt;&quot;Islamic Groups Sues Joe Kaufman of Americans Against Hate&quot;
&quot;Islamic groups sue man who arranged protest&quot;
&quot;TRO Against Anti-Muslim Group Extended&quot;
&quot;TX Muslims Sue FL Islamophobe for Defamation&quot;&lt;/b&gt;

We already &lt;a href=&quot;http://muslimsagainstsharia.blogspot.com/2007/10/islamists-attempt-to-quash-free-speech.html&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;addressed the &quot;Anti-Muslim&quot; and &quot;Islamophobe&quot; aspects&lt;/a&gt; earlier. There are other, more subtle, but also more dangerous issues with those headlines. We cannot stress enough how important it is to draw a distinction between moderate Muslims and Muslim extremists, between Islam and Islamism. However the aforementioned headlines and articles associated with them completely ignore that distinction and mislead their readers in the process.

The infamous Nazi rallies are never described as Christian events because most Christians are disgusted with the Nazis. However, when Islamofascist organizations put out their events, it seems to be universally acceptable to describe those events as Muslim or Islamic. &lt;b&gt;Why such double-standards?&lt;/b&gt; Why does the media shun Christian extremists, but embraces Muslim extremists? Is there a hidden agenda or just complete ignorance?

Western Muslim community and Western media must address the following issues arising from ignoring the difference between Islam and Islamism:

1. Radical Muslims are legitimized as mainstream
2. Moderate Muslims are bunched together with the radicals, which gives credence to the notion that all Muslims are radicals and gives rise to Islamophobia

We ask everyone in the media:
- If you do not understand the difference between Islam and Islamism, stop providing your opinions on the subject
- If you do understand that difference, please make it clear every time you address the subject and call everything by its proper name

Some of the favorite media questions are &quot;where are the moderate Muslims&quot; and &quot;why are they silent&quot;. Well, &lt;b&gt;we&lt;/b&gt; are right here. It&#039;s &lt;b&gt;you&lt;/b&gt; who don&#039;t want to hear what we have to say.

		<description>Mantis is another naive shrill whose ideology overrides his common sense.

People like him treat the Bill of Rights as a suicide pact, i.e. &quot;I don&#039;t care if Osama knows where the nuke is hidden and a million people are going to die in an hour. Now that you have him in custody, you have to mirandize him and allow him counsel before asking him anything about it.&quot;

Sinister delenda est.</description>

		<description>Why do we allow foreign nation to teach foreign language and culture in our schools.  That is not how you raise children to be loyal Americans.  Mexico also has schools in the U.S.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;No. But, disallowing them ENTIRELY when they are based on Wahhabism and are inimical to the USA is not meddling in the curriculum, its assuring national security.&lt;/i&gt;

So you support government shutdown of private religious schools based on what they teach.  Interesting.  The name of this site should be changed to SACL.

Btw, are you familiar with &lt;a href=&quot;http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/infousa/facts/funddocs/billeng.htm&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;the Bill of Rights&lt;/a&gt;?  The first one is pretty clear on this:

&lt;i&gt;Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, &lt;b&gt;or prohibiting the free exercise thereof&lt;/b&gt;; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.&lt;/i&gt;

You getting it yet?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;A private Islamic school funded by the Saudi government is being accused by the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom of teaching Wahhabi Islamism to 1,000 K-12 children in Fairfax County, Virginia. &lt;/i&gt;

Fairfax County, Va. Right down the road from George &lt;strike&gt;Muslim&lt;/strike&gt; Mason University, a &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;public&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; university that has kowtowed to Islamists and put in footbaths for their ritual prayers. What ever happened to &quot;separation of mosque and state&quot;?</description>
