Through murder and mayhem, rather than wit and wisdom, Muslims demonstrate their intolerance of modern, secular, and non-Muslim beliefs.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;They demonstrate their unfitness to live in peaceful society.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;“Moderates” assure us that all Muslims are not crazyeyedbarbarian murdering-in-the-name-of-Allah jihad scum. No, the vast majority, they claim, are really into peace and tolerance, as is written in the Koran.&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7576/2343/1600/religionofpeace.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7576/2343/200/religionofpeace.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;It’s like living in Berkeley, except with burqas.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Don’t mind subsequent verses that abrogate those pretty sentiments with admonitions and incitements to kill infidels – you just don’t know your Koran! (Infidel)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;This is when the old adage “Fool me once…” is best repeated.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Moderate Muslims distance themselves from their terrorist brethren through one or more of the following methods:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Remaining silent and keeping a low profile (This group appears to be shrinking);&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Attributing barbaric actions to “third world fanaticism” and “anti-Western sentiment” masquerading under the banner of Islam (“Islam is not the enemy!”);&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Asserting that the “Bedouin” (read: desert hillbilly) elements of modern Arabs are responsible for the terror (You have to get a chuckle out of Muslim elitism);&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Bringing up the Christian Crusades (Although Muhammad crusaded first);&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Trebuchet MS;"&gt;Noting that much of the Muslim world is "fragmented", lives in poverty, and, therefore, subject to the rages of uncontrollable and radical factions (Unlike Christians, I guess, who are all united under a single religious authority and live in splendor);&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Claiming that Western governments, like the United States, are actually BIGGER terrorists (NO! You are! Nuh uh, YOU are!);&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;Secretly providing Muslim terrorists with weapons, funding, and training camps (Seems to work for some – at least, for a while).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7576/2343/1600/kumbayamuslimstyle.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7576/2343/200/kumbayamuslimstyle.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Moderate Muslims cannot sit back and preach peace and tolerance, while their “radical” brethren slaughter Jews, Christians, Hindus, and, apparently, any and all others who oppose a theocratic-totalitarian word order. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;But, this is exactly what “moderate” Muslims have been doing for decades, while branding their critics “Islamophobes”. Their tactics appeared to be working; then, Denmark.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;The World Trade Center wasn't enough. It took a handful of cartoons published in a Danish newspaper to reveal their duplicity.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;Take note, Muslims: You &lt;em&gt;are&lt;/em&gt; your brother's keeper, and your brother's evil and criminal actions &lt;em&gt;do&lt;/em&gt; represent you and your religion. In fact, he's defining – and has for many already defined – Islam.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt;And, now, my Muhammad cartoon: .&lt;/p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:trebuchet ms;"&gt;(You’ll have to BLOW THIS UP to see it.)&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/22961463-114079772257952955?l=haveanotherslice.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22961463/posts/default/114079772257952955'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/22961463/posts/default/114079772257952955'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://haveanotherslice.blogspot.com/2006/02/islamophobiaphobia-fear-of-having-fear.html' title='Islamophobiaphobia: Fear of having fear of those practicing Islam'/><author><name>Havarti Hal</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10365061008311224104</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry></feed>
