Islam is NOT a religion, it is a political ideology based on a false "holy book" compiled by a lunatic, pedophile, war monger who centered his deity around the "moon god" of the arab world he called allah.
The Islamic or muslim "faith" is a political system and not a religion. The two become clouded and shrouded by acts of "worship, prayers, and religious references to allah" so it must be a religion. Did anyone ever see the "worship" that existed when Adolf Hitler was rising to power? Has anyone seen the photos of 1000s lining the streets with arms extended, shouting homage to the man? Does anyone recall our world history lessons on the rise of the Roman Empire and the proclamation that Ceasar was "god?" Did that make ancient Rome a religious structure? Certainly, the Roman gods like the ancient Greek gods and goddesses played a role in their lives, but clearly, Rome became the empire it was through political and military might and strength, as did the Nazi's.
Sharia law of the Muslim world is certainly not about freedom or equality, and bears no resemblance to our the founding documents of the United States, as some Imam's have recently tried to suggest. It is not a religion, but a system designed to replace our Constitution and rule of law. Therefore it is incapable of cohabiting with Christianity, Judaism, or other world religions that are not seeking to usurp the law of the land. In fact, being a political ideology and not a religion changes the dynamic of islam, revealing its' opposition to our U. S. Constitution and therefore illegal as a practice in this country.
The people and government of the United States of America and our allies fought against the Nazi's, Communists, Fascists, and other political posturing to preserve our nation. It was called a cold war complete with threat of warheads, bombs, and spies seeking to infiltrate our society and create changes from within. Some "anti-war, peace activists" sought to promote these political philosophies on religious grounds of "make love not war," but the common sense people had no difficulty realizing the oppressive, destructive nature of these government structures seeking to dismantle personal freedoms and human rights. No one argued that these factions had a right to exist for "religious" reasons, simply because they recognized it was not religion. Had it been touted as such, true intellectuals would have been swift to drag the lie to the spotlight and restore truth, unlike the intelligentsia that resides in the current media, sweeping truth under the rug with the other dirt and grime that corrupts rule of law.
Until the politically correct (tolerance, why can't we all just get along, you do your thing and I'll do mine) populace finally realizes that this is a legalistic ideology (Islam) and doesn't want to play the game by the rule of U.S. law, the Constitution, Bill of Rights, Declaration of Independence. Their play book would force everyone to eventually play by their rules (sharia). The correctness crowd will continue to cower and acquiesce until the game is 100 - 0 in favor of the enemy and all forms of crying foul will be useless.
Our U.S. Constitution guarantee's the right of worship. It does NOT guarantee, the right of a diametrically opposed political system to coexist. The freedoms that built this nation and produced the once meteoric rise to great strengths, was built on the basic common sense principles of human rights and freedoms clearly spelled out in the pages of the true Holy Book; the Holy Book who's message is about life, liberty, truth, freedom, peace, justice, good will, grace, temperance, and more. This Holy book broke the back of oppressive monarchy, set the stage for human prosperity, lit the fire of freedom to die for, and caused our own nation to stand with our friends, supporting other nations fighting for a free world.
Don't turn a blind eye or deaf ear to this, lest we cause all the blood shed by 1000s from our nation and our allies to stop the spread of despotic oppression in WW2, Korea, Viet Nam, and now the Middle East. See it for what it is, hear what it is really saying, and don't wait until it's too late to do something about it.

"Shhhhhhh, we're told. Don't protest the Ground Zero mosque. Don't burn a Koran. It'll imperil the troops. It'll inflame tensions. The 'Muslim world' will 'explode' if it does not get its way, warns sharia-peddling imam Feisal Abdul Rauf. Pardon my national security-threatening impudence, but when is the 'Muslim world' not ready to 'explode'? ... When everything from sneakers to stuffed animals to comics to frescos to beauty queens to fast-food packaging to undies serves as dry tinder for Allah's avengers, it's a grand farce to feign concern about the recruitment effect of a few burnt Korans in the hands of a two-bit attention-seeker in Florida. The eternal flame of Muslim outrage was lit a long, long time ago." --columnist Michelle Malkin
