The face of Religious Tolerance in the US
Now for some facts:
As of 2010, there were 2,595,000 Muslims in the US.
- This brings up an interesting question, all Muslims are terrorists, why haven't these American Muslims committed at least a few thousand terrorist acts? Suicide bombers on buses, schools, churches?
Wait, the liberal media is covering it up because Obama is a Muslim.
- Master At Arms Second Class Michael A. Monsoor, USN Seal, awarded US Medal of Honor for his actions in Ramadi, Iraq. Funny thing he was a Muslim, therefore anti-American.
-From 2001 to 2006 t's estimated that around 3,500 Muslim-American servicemen have been deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan, with seven being killed. These seven must have been killed trying to kill non Muslim service members.
Funny thing, since 9/11 more Muslims have been killed by Muslim Extremists than any other religion, and during our active involvement in Iraq, at least 500 thousand Iraqi non combatants died either as a direct result of US military operations, or indirectly as a result in the region being destabilized by the invasion.
As stated in another thread, drone strikes are not surgically precise, there is a number of non intended casualties.
2,977 Americans died on 9/11. Even at a 10 to 1 revenge requirement, I do believe that we exceeded the number needed.
As I`m poking around...I`m seeing a tendency to classify "terrorism" differently.
If you look at rightie sourced stuff, they don`t regard white christian crime as terrorism......
The word "terrorist" in the rightie-alternate-world is now synonymous with Muslim and refers to brown people doing terrorism on American soil....Not lilly white Christians saving babies....
I recall Palin debating,trying to slip in the word terrorist in as many times as possible (fucking little cunt) to associate the President with terrorism(Muslim terrorism) when she was asked about abortion clinic bombers and she was dumb struck.....as if the the notion that the anti-abortion-right was the primary source for anti-abortion terrorism NEVER occurred to her.
The recent story about a black fellow getting his throat slit and an ear hacked off is domestic terrorism ........ in every sense and definition of the word.
As to the OP....k....There is no doubt the the bulk of American religious intolerance is sourced from the Christian right....
And Jesus, if that was the only harm they brought into the world,we would be so much better off.
