My dad was in the Army during the Korean War, although he was fortunate to be stationed in Germany, or I might not be here typing this :s And my husband was in the Navy for 9 years. He'd already been out for a year when I met him.

I thanked both of them last evening :)

When founding fathers were Muslims, how would America be then?

With the current rate of Islamic propagation in America, Muslims will probably make up the majority in year 2200.

In 2200, they would probably indentify some of the prominent American Muslims as the founding fathers of Islamic America such as Muhammad Ali, Malcolm X, the American taliban, the muslim congressman, the muslim ambassador to Iraq and afghanistan, hamza yusuf, and al-awlaki, muslim ball players, muslim writers and scientists, and a whole lot of other muslims.

In 2200, the United States of Muslim America would not be as bad as the previous United States of America.

I can't speak for Rusty and LBer or anyone else, Mawar, but your pathetic attempts to TAUNT Americans into some kind of hysterical tantrum won't work on ME.

America has no interest in being governed by Muslims or sharia law, Mawar. Our system of government was lovingly, carefully constructed by people who held a bone-deep belief in the right of each and every human being to determine his own destiny.

But they were also realists. They knew that the rights guaranteed to Americans would not be respected outside American borders, and that there was a certain large segment of the human race that wants to impose its will on as much of the rest of the world as it could manage. The persons making up this group might be English snobs as they were in 1776, Nazi Germans trying to take over the world as they did in Europe in the 1930s and 1940s or Communist bureaucrats or Syrian politicians murdering their own citizens.

They might be as infamous as a Hitler or a Saddam Hussein or a Josef Stalin, or as petty as the mean customer abusing a salesclerk (I have PLENTY of experience with that one!) They might try to rationalize their actions as being "for the greater good" or claim that the people they want to dominate actually LIKE being controlled, like American southern plantation owners said of their slaves prior to the American Civil War, 1861-1865.

And frequently they use religion as a tool. Catholics did this in Europe, especially between 1450-1650...and MUSLIMS ARE DOING IT TODAY.

Well, Mawar, many Americans have laid down their lives so that no one, NO ONE inside or outside of American borders, can ever do it again. In fact, today is what we Americans call "Memorial Day," the day we set aside once a year to thank our veterans and especially to remember those who died so that the rest of us could enjoy our freedom to live as we wish. If you think, Mawar, that Americans today are no longer willing to fight for our nation and our freedom, take it from me, Mawar, you're wrong. Americans have NEVER been afraid to sacrifice their lives when they believed in their cause, and that is never going to change.

You don't believe me? Come over here, Mawar, and find out.

But why do Americans bent on committing suicide, torching their own respective little corners of the country, and penetrating each other of the same sex?

Isn't this behavior indication of the eventual decline of American society?

Muslims, on the other hand, have never been part of these madness. We are safe.

Why do you Muslims, bent on committing suicide, strap bombs to yourselves?

When a woman is raped, why do you blame HER if she has the courage to expose the rapist, especially when she knows she may well be murdered for having "soiled the family honor?"

Why do you worship a pedophile?

Isn't this behavior indicative of the utter hypocrisy of Islam and Muslims generally?

"Muslims are safe." Sure you are.

I don't. many of these poor soldiers dragged into Afghanistan because they couldn't find job.

All the wealthy soldiers....Well, there aren't any wealthy soldiers because wealthy families don't let their sons to be army.

So its all about poor Americans fighting for wealthy Americans. Or to certain degree, colored Americans fighting for white Americans.

And you are calling these Americans fighting for nation and freedom. No way, I won't believe that.

No, you can't afford to believe it. Nevertheless, rest assured that many wealthy and powerful men and/or their sons have served in the American Armed Forces. Just off the top of my head, I can name three: George W. Bush, Jr., John McCain and John Kerry.

If founding fathers were muslims, what would America be at the beginning? I picture it ... in my head

Saiful Adams, "Astagafurilah! Those British soldier are cruel....."

Jafar Washington, "What is it?"

Saiful Adams, " They shoot unarmed civilians with blood pig".

Thomas Jainudin, "That kafir King George, deny our rights as free man"

Jafar Washington, "But he want us only to marry to one woman".

Thomas Jainudin, " Nonsense! What kind of man that dare to decide our rights to have multiple wive".

Thomas bin Faiz, " I got inspiration, to write Phamflet .... Allah sense".

Mawar, again you're speaking from your imagination.

Actually the total percentage of whites in the army is higher than their population percentage, blacks are also enlisted in comparable proportion. Other "colored" group are not joining army in proportion as high as whites and blacks.

Coming from Malaysia, the media tend to portray whites in a way that is very different from the fact. But Mawar (if he's Radzi who he never denied to be) have studied in US, he'd be distorter if he speak evil about whites beyond other races... or unless he never bother mixing with other races here to find out we're all the same.

Great post, Rusty :)

I really do hope you and Trisha and Aiesha will consider visiting the "Bush is a hero" thread. The invitation was for all of you as well, and even for Mawar, although I'm betting he wouldn't have the guts for it.

Daily Horoscope for June 18

Taurus

No matter what else you're supposed to be doing today, it's a good idea to devote a little time to making sure your finances are running smoothly. You might even want to pay some bills now, rather than wait a couple of days until they're due, simply so you can make sure that you don't forget them. There should be some good news about a pay rise or perk, too.
