Can world survive Islam.

September 11 did not make much of a dent in the overall American murder rate in 2001, which stood at roughly 50,000. 

The actual, effective fighters of the first crusade were Franks. They had no stake in Jerusalem. You're appealing to some abstract devotion to religious purity and devotion on the part of people who were so depraved that when they got hungry, they killed, cooked and ate their prisoners. These were people who had plundered, raped and murdered their way across the western portion of the Roman Empire.

(Try to get it through your thick skull that there was no "Byzantine Empire--they didn't call it that, the Empire did not call itself that--it only got that name from monkish, gnomish historians centuries later. How can anyone take you historical abortions seriously when you can't even take on-board basic historical fact?)

The Church of the Holy Sepulchre was ordered destroyed by the Fatimid Caliph who then controlled Palestine, in 1009. The First Crusade did not begin until 1095, eighty-six years later. The church had already been rebuilt with the consent of the Fatimid Caliph who had succeeded the Caliph who had order its destruction. The reconstruction of the church was completed in 1048, forty-seven years before that crusade began. The fate of a church which had already been re-built was a casus belli, an excuse for war.

The crusaders were Franks. The Franks had never lived in Palestine, they had never own one square foot of Palestine--it was nothing more than am excise to invade and attempt to set up a kingdom in Jerusalem.

The crusade, no matter what holy joe bullshit you come up with, was a naked plundering expedition and a land grab.

they did nothing to return the former territory to the Roman Empire, or to defend it from the Turks.

There is a serious problem within Christianity when their adherents bomb abortion clinics and murder doctors who perform abortions, and their body guards and the employees of such clinics.

There is a serious problem within Christianity when atrocities such as the slaughter at Srebenica was allowed to take place without interference, and the criminals who committed it are allowed to go unpunished.

There is a serious problem within Judaism when Zionists routinely murder innocent men, women and children, and go unpunished.

while you so eagerly blame the actions of a tiny minority of Muslims on all of Islam

"Zionist" is the new code word for "kike."

You disgusting racist pig. Zionists are those who believe that Jews should have their own homeland, based on what they claim were their historical borders. They believe that any acts are justified in pursuit of that goal. Not all Jews agree with that, and that includes Jews in Israel. After seeing your performance here in the past, i am not surprised to see you using a vile racist epithet and then trying to shove that off on someone else. You are a low-life scum-bag.

Really, Laymna, you are the lowest of the low.

...you are much more likely to die from something else than from terrorism

Let's not over-estimate the threat posed by terrorists. In the grand scheme of things, they don't represent a significant threat.

Hey asshole, all you appear to have is some reactionary catholic blog writer. You've got a gall to sneer at anyone else about sources.

I've never been in a mosque in my life. I have never in my life hear an Imam or Mullah speak--you snotty, bigoted little piece of ****.



Aren't we the little bitch. How come you can talk that way without being banned?

Woow... you are way off, Thomas. Here are the real numbers from FBI source

Besides, would you not see the difference between 3000 murdered in 2 hours by one source, versus how many died in the entire year (8 765 hours) from almost as many sources as murders?
Seriously?

Don't forget that WW1 started pretty much as a result of killing a single man, and that caused millions to die.

... terrorism is a comparatively little deal.

This is all of a piece with your Zionist polemics...There is a serious problem within Judaism...

Yes. A policy mistake with catastrophic consequences. That's what you get when governments overreact to terrorism. I rest my case.

I was merely pointing out what small fish terrorists are in the overall pond of threats.

Don't forget that WW1 started pretty much as a result of killing a single man, and that caused millions to die. That's why there was so much outrage when 2 Americans were beheaded but nobody pay much attention to everyday murder here.

From inception, Zionism avocated tangible as well as spiritual aims. Jews of all persuasions - left, right, religious and secular - formed the Zionist movement and worked together toward its goals.

he's a hateful son of a bitch who likes nothing better than to pick a fight. I have no doubt that in his circle of friends, such as they may be, he routinely refers to Jews as "kikes"

You're not suggesting that a disgustingly brutal murder of a couple of American citizens is just and sufficient reason for starting a world wide war that will eventually result in the deaths of millions?
