It IS About Islam!

I am constantly amazed at the ability of the gullible to believe something just because it is constantly repeated. The recent arrest of young Muslim men accused of plotting an attack at Fort Dix is a good example. A Muslim lawyer, Sohail Mohammed, located in New Jersey where the plot occurred is quoted as saying in regard to the plot by the Islamic men "Don't equate actions with religion,".

What? Don't equate Islamic fundaMentalism with Islam? Don't equate suicide bombers chanting Allah Akbar with Allah? Give me a break!

We hear this over and over again. Islam is a religion of peace; Extremist are hijacking a good religion; It (actions) are not about religion but about economics, race, etc, etc,

Bullshit!

I think it is time that people of reason begin to strongly disagree with those who choose to blindly pretend that religious fundaMentalism has nothing to do with religion. Islam is NOT a religion of peace any more than Christianity is a religion of tolerance. While this doesn't mean that all Christians are intolerant or that all Muslims are militant, it also does not mean that religion has nothing to do with the actions that militant Muslims and intolerant Christians take. Isn't this just common sense?
