Muslims overwhelmingly oppose attacks on U.S.
Barry Artiste Op/Ed
Though it is certainly a step in the right direction, it takes a few steps back when those opposed to killing US Civilians agree with al-Qaeda’s principles. For you see if the Muslim Countries were truly opposed to the killings, they could and CAN stop al-Qaeda in it’s tracks!
After all, many say al-Qaeda is a small minority of Terrorists when looking at the Big Picture! If this is the case, and many Muslims are adverse to it, why have they (Muslims) as a majority of people stopped it instead of allowing al-Qaeda to continue killing a very minuscule number of US Civilians, not to mention blowing up or butchering Millions of unsuspecting fellow Muslim civilian men, women and children in marketplaces and elsewhere.
Certainly belies logic don’t you think to send a suicide bomber into a public MUSLIM marketplace to kill everyone to make a point! But then what else belies logic is the millions of Muslims clamouring to Move to the West, and once here take up the Martyrdom flag of protests here on Western Soil, when clearly they should be taking up those Protests on their Native soil if they truly want change!
Does this make any sense to you? For you see if I did not like my Canadian governments stance, I surely would not move to your country and protest my Government which will fall on deaf ears. If you want change, take your protests to where the action is! Many say, they would be jailed or killed if they spoke out against their native governments! Perhaps that is True!
But you should know we in the West feared the same when 200 hundred years ago we protested British Rule in our country, we wanted change, we wanted our own say in government, our ancestors fought, died and eventually won our war in the Freedom of Independence by doing the fighting ourselves on our own soil. We did not go to your country to fight our war at home!
We won the War of Independence, we affected change! Hence why many Western Countries are a desirable locale for you! If you want what we have, you have to fight for it, and not rely on us to do your fighting for you, and then protest when things are not to your liking.
A point that in my Opinion, if you really wanted to stop al-Qaeda in it’s tracks, you could, but looking at this poll, you clearly aren’t! If an al-Qaeda world is what you desire, why are you living in our backyard, North America??? Certainly a Cowards Way to fight a war if you support al-Qaeda by sitting safely in North America or Europe out of Gunshot or Bomb blast range. Religious Wars have no place in our Western Society, so don’t bring it to our doorstep, bring it to yours if you feel so strongly about it!
Below is a televised link a few years ago on a Canadian Program featuring an interview from Dr. Elmasry, the Head of Canada’s Islamic Congress, one would think after his diatribes one would think the Muslim Community who profess to be abhorred by such horrific comments would have turfed this guys ass out of his position, and our government would turf his ass out of the country, Guess what? No one did anything, perhaps a few Tsk, Tsks from the Muslim community compared if anyone else had said such Hate. So what are we to believe about the seriousness of this poll?

After this was televised, National Media were outraged by Dr. Elmasry’s comments as well as Canadians and Muslims. The Islamic Congress proceeded to Sue for taking the Good Doctors words out of context, but watching the TV show it is hard to think his words mean anything else. To date this Dr. Elmasry is still around, My friend who I get a lot of information is also a Muslim, his name is Tarek Fateh, who with his permission was allowed to publish some of his articles. Tarek has been targeted by Elmasry as a detriment to Islam. Tarek in my Opinion is one of the very few who see the big picture many don’t get.
I put it this way, if Today! The Koran, the Bible, the Torah with their passages touting Brutality for Non Believers and newly written today and presented to Governments as rule of Law! Do you really think there would be a Hope in Hell it would ever get published or introduced into any society as gospel for governments and people to follow? Do you not think Governments and it’s People would go WTF? Is this End of Days? Of course not it would be nipped in the Bud! I tell ya, there would be a world Outcry like you would not believe with charges of Genocide, Racism Mass Ethnic Cleansing that would make the Crusades, Spanish Inquisition, Mein Kampf and al-Qaeda doctrines look like a friggin peace group all rolled into one!
So people, we need to realise we live in Modern times, not in the Dark ages.
You should know we are not you and you clearly are not us! If you live among us, then be part of us, cause as Bush once said, if you are not with us, you are against us! Words you should certainly live by if you wish to live amongst us! We did not put a gun to your head to immigrate to our countries, you chose to! Our Life, Our Culture, Our Values, this is now Your Country! Love it or Leave it, the choice is yours! We cannot change just for you, regardless of what Multicultural ethnic Vote Sucking Politicians say to you! Continue Protests and Terrorist acts by fundraising Terrorism in other countries on our soil against innocents, and one day We may make a one way choice for you! And you Ain’t gonna like it!

Raphael Alexander: Muslims overwhelmingly oppose attacks on U.S. civilians
Posted: February 26, 2009, 6:25 PM by NP Editor Full Comment, Raphael Alexander A global public opinion poll of Muslims in predominantly Muslim countries has found that the vast majority of people continue to oppose attacks on U.S. civilians.
In the poll, the largest number of those who approve murdering U.S. civilians could be found in the Palestinian territories with 24% in favour, 15% with “mixed feelings”, and 59% opposed.
After that, all the numbers drop off sharply.
For those who support attacks on U.S. civilians,
- 8% in Egypt,
- 5% in Indonesia,
- 9% in Pakistan,
- 7% in Morocco,
- 11% in Jordan,
- 8% in Turkey,
- and only 4% in Azerbaijan.
Although some rightwing blogs today have noted that some numbers have gone up in favour of murdering civilians since the last poll in 2007, the fact is that the numbers have gone up in opposition as well.

A powerful share, I just given this onto a colleague who was performing a bit evaluation on this. And he in reality bought me breakfast as a result of I found it for him.. smile. So let me reword that: Thnx for the deal with! Nevertheless yeah Thnkx for spending the time to debate this, I seriously really feel strongly about it and really like reading much more on this topic. If attainable, as you turn into expertise, would you thoughts updating your weblog with additional particulars? It really is extremely valuable for me. Significant thumb up for this weblog put up!
When you say that the Muslim countries could, and can stop terrorism in it’s tracks I fear that you are sadly mistaken, take a look at Britian, Spain, Russia, France, et al, many of these countries have problems with terrorism and still have not been able to destroy the terrorists that continue to live amongst them, if these western countries cannot do it, why then should you expect it to be any simpler for Muslim countries. Don’t overlook western terrorism, it still exists no matter what you wish to believe
