Didn't US intervention precede this mess, perhaps, in part at least, caused it?

 

I await your polite response.

Don't worry, the muslim extremists are only the minorities.

They are barely enough of them to take over a small country - just embrace them with open arms; 'cause that's what we are expected to do.

Yeah but for now they're holding off under the pretext that doing something would be interventionist.

 

The irony goes so far beyond funny that it actually comes all the way back around and makes you laugh.

I am the only one who is tickled that the resurgent Islamic organization is named after the Egyptian Goddess, Isis?

Islamic reform versus christian reform

 

I don't like all the content in this article, but the view point does have an originial approach;
http://www.frontpagemag.com/2014/raymond-ibrahim/islams-protestant-reformation/

 

 

How Christianity and Islam can follow similar patterns of reform but with antithetical results rests in the fact that their scriptures are often antithetical to one another. 

 

 

 

from:

 

Raymond Ibrahim, a Middle East and Islam specialist, is author of Crucified Again: Exposing Islam’s New War on Christians (2013) and The Al Qaeda Reader (2007).  His writings have appeared in a variety of media, including the Los Angeles Times, Washington Times, Jane’s Islamic Affairs Analyst, Middle East Quarterly, World Almanac of Islamism, and Chronicle of Higher Education; he has appeared on MSNBC, Fox News, C-SPAN, PBS, Reuters, Al-Jazeera, NPR, Blaze TV, and CBN.  Ibrahim regularly speaks publicly, briefs governmental agencies, provides expert testimony for Islam-related lawsuits, and testifies before Congress. He is a Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center, an Associate Fellow at the Middle East Forum, and a Media Fellow at the Hoover Institution, 2013.  Ibrahim’s dual-background—born and raised in the U.S. by Coptic Egyptian parents born and raised in the Middle East—has provided him with unique advantages, from equal fluency in English and Arabic, to an equal understanding of the Western and Middle Eastern mindsets, positioning him to explain the latter to the former.

We need another...

I do not outright agree...

 

We need to stop kidding ourselves, but I wouldn't support violence outright as the remedy to the situation.  Agreed that we have a right and duty to defend ourselves (and our neighbors) and as such just wars are sometimes necessary - I am not convinced that a new crusade is warranted. 

 

 

 

It is my conviction that the Lord has spoken true, that for the world to change, hearts must change.  Only in that is the true remedy.

 

It would follow that the reason must follow the heart (heart as love, not passion).
