The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street

It seems to me that the mainstream Muslim community could be doing much, much more to thwart the spread of the disease destroying them. They should be distancing themselves in a much more aggressive manner from the extremist plague. Even moving away from the practices that tend to anger others around them. They could follow their religion without some of the outward appearances for one thing. (But then so could the Jews and Sikhs).

Muslims know what passages are being used by the Monsters and they know how to counter them.


Then, unfortunately, we also have this kind of thing: https://www.washingtonpost.com/nati...957850-a583-11e5-8318-bd8caed8c588_story.html

If you want to show examples of foreign alphabets and writing styles, why use controversial phrases? Why show examples you know are likely to incite backlash?

@FIH, you clearly didn't bother to take 5 seconds to search on whether your claim is actually true. I did and found plenty of evidence that Muslims around the world are doing what they can to peacefully protest the actions of ISIS. On the battlefield, most of the ground war against ISIS is being fought by Muslim forces.

Look here, if you don't believe me.

I'm talking about actively monitoring family, friends, neighbors, co-workers and so on that may be radicalizing under their noses. And then actively working to intervene and de-program them before they're lost.

Okay. So how do you prove your assertion that this is not happening?

The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices -- to be found in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill and suspicion can destroy, and a thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all its own -- for the children and the children yet unborn. And the pity of it is that these things cannot be confined to the Twilight Zone.

Is this movieland? Following, monitoring, de-programming...all that cool stuff is usually accompanied by an upbeat music score and gadgets. All Muslims must learn those skills in kindergarten or they can ask their 5 year olds how to do it right?

Since you seem to know what they need to do, why not get yourself a burqa and show us how it's done.

Yeah, and while we're at it women shouldn't dress in a way to invite getting raped.

Like wearing five-inch-heels that would hobble them and hinder their movement, rendering them unable to run and making them prime targets for rapists and countless other miscreants of society.

Are you really such a sexist as to believe a woman's attire is responsible for her being raped?

No, they're just being sarcastic.

There have been cases of people being attacked because they were wearing certain attire 'required' by their religion. Sikhs have been attacked by fools who thought they were Muslim for example.
