I agree with you totally. But to answer your question seriously ... Muslims have been in the U.S. for some time. But, because they minded their own business, worked hard, didn't evangelize, and basically just lived quiet peaceful lives (just as their religion teaches them to) no one noticed them much or paid that much attention. Then came 9-11. Islamic terrorists. Because of the actions of a handful of mislead fundamentalist fanatics people who new nothing of Islam judged ALL Muslims based on that. Now, good people, good Muslims, suffer the political and cultural fall-out brought about by 9-11. So now some folks have a new scape goat. Communist Russia fell. The news media and the politicians and the religious right (another group of fundamentalist fanatics) needed another villain. Currently its Islam and Muslims. They use the hate and bigotry they stir up to keep people occupied. That way folks don't raise a fuss about REAL issues. The environment, health care, etc. Its easier to bash others in ignorance than it is to honestly think and work on REAL issues. Know what I mean? ~ Peace & Blessings ~

America is not alone in their disregard of African atrocities. It's got nothing to do with being Muslim. It has to do with the fact that there isn't an economic necessity to go in there and do anything unfortunately. Unless we stand up as humans and say something our governments won't do anything about it.

Well, you may have a point, muslims can wear what they like, we are not allowed to wear caps and hoodies in some shops or banks. muslims can preach racial hatred, if a brit did this, they would be arrested instantly and imprisoned for racism. Infact, muslims virtually cant be done for racism, apparently, only white people are capable of it. When a muslim breaks the law, WE have to care about their human rights, when we break the law, they couldnt care less, and a muslim, can enter our country, and without doing a stroke of work, scroung off us and complain we dont give them enough, if we did that in their country, we'd probably be shot. So yes, they probably do think they own us...

Study our recent U.S. history (20 years) and you will discover that more than 95% of our terrorist attacks and wars are against Muslims, and that they are the instigators of such activities.\n\nOR -\n\nStudy religion.  What are the Muslim faith doctrines ... OOPS!  "Death to all infidels!!!" (you are an infidel if you are not a muslim).\n\nNot all religions preach violence; you mentioned Christianity in your question, as I understand it christians preach peace, hope and love.\n\nOR -\n\nStudy Ancient History.  As far back as you would care to travel in time you will find the muslims at the heart of conflict from their very inception as a family, then tribe, then nation, then world religion.\n\nOR -\n\nStudy sociology.  Muslims view of life does understand that what you 'believe is true, is true' regardless of how other individuals or nations regard truth.  The driving force in Muslims lives is their religion because they clearly see that it is their belives that give meaning to life (and direction for their life choices).\n\nMeet a devote muslim and you will meet a person that has NO tolerance for anyone who does not believe exactly as they do. \n\nThis is true of very few of the 5000+ religions in the world.\n\nIn my opinion, muslims are just like you and me (hopefully), individulas that in the U.S. have the right to their thoughts and beliefs as long as they are not hurting others.  BUT therein lies the problem.\n\nThe scottish have a saying "Fool me once, shame on you.  Fool me twice, shame on me."\n\nWhy are people racist . . .

I don't think it's a case of that many people converting to Islam.  It seems to me that Muslims have been here for ages and that world events of the last 10 years have thrust them into the spotlight.\n\nI don't think the US is becoming Islamic.  I also don't necessarily like to define our country by religion.  Yes, we were built on Christian values, but from the start we have embraced FREEDOM of religion.

Muslim social scientists and researchers have spent a great deal of time trying to determine the number of Muslims in the United States. Most accept the estimate of from 5 million to 8 million. That is to say at least 5 million people in North America claim Islam as their religion and/or practice. What is represented in this report is based on estimates made in 1991, the World Almanac reports that Muslim in the United States number approximately 5,220,00. The total worldwide Muslim population is generally estimated at slightly more that 1 billion. David Barrett's publication, "International Bulletin of Missionary Research" cites a lower figure, 988,004,000.

wether its the act or the react , is the main question. first of all muslims (not muslums) embraced Islam as their way of life (and death), Islam (and all other relegions) never teach its believers to be a bad human,  bad to other human, bad to animals, or even bad to any plants and earth.. Its all begin with a concerted effort by the hidden hands to label muslims apparantly, and they succeeded. They planed their plans hundreds of years ago to achieve this state of global labelling on muslims, they try to play god, but have they forget God;s plan is better than their plans?. God is most Mercyful, all catastrophies on this earth is from our own wrong doings. God created a logical reason just to suit our level of thinkings, has any of us observed how great were the previous nation during civilization before us? have we ever understand why those civilizations, which were great vanished? or is it just a coincident? The Romans were so advance and powerful, but where were they? Was it because of the works of terrorist during their era?.. Where are Babylonians now? Why there is only the Ankor Wat's Temple there, what happened to the Ayuthians? Do they vanished because of the terrorist?\nThis could happen to Americans too.... the signs, the hurricanes, the earth has spoken, lightly... just wait until the dollar values drop in next 7 months... America is Big, if Big falls, it will fall hard...

Not all Muslims hate America, just the ones that want to control everything and everyone.

Hey good for you. I got nothing against Islam at all, and I'm sorry as an American for any prejudice that has occured against Muslims. I know that it is radicals that attack our country and the way we live. Just as there are radicals in all aspects of life and other religions.\n\nI for one do not condone or practice any kind of mistreatment or mockery of people of Islamic faith. But I also stongly detest any attack on America and our way of life. If they do not agree with it, find. They do not have to live that way. I will defend my country though, as I have taken an oath to defend against all enemies both foregin and domestic.

I am an American citizen that DID vote for Bush. As far as most Americans are concerned, Iranian citizens need to get THEIR leaders to calm down and TALK. We understand you are very devoted to your faith, but not EVERYONE wishes to live in that kind of society. This is a BIG world and we ALL need to live here. How about showing us why some call Islam the "Religion Of Peace". PLEASE?

I've no doubt that Americans are decent people who want the best for humanity. Maybe their pilgrim heritage lends itself to their view that democracy and the American way is best.\n\nWhilst I too believe in their values, I accept that others don't. Many Muslims see democracy as a corrupt and evil philosophy. You can't deal with such views.\n\nAs a criticism of the US, they only seem to accept democracy if the "right" people are voted in. Their disruption of democratically elected governments in Chile (70's) and Palestine (today) are examples.\n\nGood luck with your quest for an answer.
