I agree that Krauthammer can be very sharp about many things, but here he conflates Islam with radical Islamic movements, not being very specific about the difference.

I'm sick of the whole bigoted Muslim hate thing going on in America. It's appalling, shameful and stupid, and shouldn't be tolerated. It makes our country look ignorant. Radical Islam or terrorists are another story. The two are not one and the same.

The agenda and end result is the same - the way they go about it is different

Just want to double check what you mean.

I wrote: "I'm sick of the whole bigoted Muslim hate thing going on in America. It's appalling, shameful and stupid, and shouldn't be tolerated. It makes our country look ignorant. Radical Islam or terrorists are another story. The two are not one and the same."

Are you saying radical Islam and terrorists are one and the same? Or that Muslim Americans and all Muslims are the same as radical Islam/terrorists?

Their agenda is the same - the terrorists are impatient; non-violent Muslims true to their religion employ stealth jihad. Nothing explains it better (for me, anyway) than this article -

http://www.legion.org/magazine/9907/stealth-jihad

"While Shariah deems jihad to be the personal obligation of every faithful Muslim capable of performing it – man or woman, young or old – they can forgo the violent form when it is deemed impracticable. In such circumstances, the struggle can be pursued through means that are, at least temporarily, non-violent. Taken together, the latter constitute what renowned author and expert Robert Spencer calls “stealth jihad.” Adherents to Shariah call it “dawah.” "

Ah. Then I'll put you clearly into the religious bigot category.

That is patently unfair and untrue. Just because I don't fall into lock step with what you believe does not make me a bigot, and I resent such an accusation. You are not the owner of all the answers.

Shariah Law is everything to all Muslims - it is not just a belief, it is a way of life, and it is their politics. There are terrorists and there are moderates; HOWEVER, their agenda and goal is worldwide domination.

There is a lengthy white paper report on the subject that I suggest you take the time to read if the Stealth Jihad article was not to your liking.

So you think a religion that treats women as poorly as the Muslim religion does is a good one?

Its probably the worst religion going... though they all have major issues.
