    So much for a religion of peace and tolerance
    I have often spoken out against Muslim hate speech here and in other places but there comes a point when the existence of these people is intolerable and not free speech

    And of course you can't post a link to it but click on the link anyway so you can see that Islam is not a religion of peace and tolerance but a religion of bigatory and sedition

    There are fanatics in every religion. They should be stamped out, right?

    Yes such people need to be dealt with severely, in a free society there is no place for sedition

    I have a Muslim friend (Abir) in Cairo. Her FB postings are so frustrated and sad for her country -- and hopes it will end soon..

    No self respecting biker would be a Muslim...

    And not all bikers are white...

    Well I would agree with you that these guys are neither self respecting or respecting anyone else, they are certainly a troublesome element.

    So white supremacy has broadened the church?

    Not what I'm saying... the White supremacists rarely happen to be bikers as well.

    When they take off the hoods, grow hair, and dress in jeans you can't tell them from ordinary folk. There are still too many of them, and their sheeple sympathizers. Some even run for and win public office. Some like Smoothie, and you deny the existence of bigotry, and institutional racism, because they choose to believe they are entitled to feel superior and other races to be inferior.

    That's to be expected from those that feel threatened and put upon by others, who won't be dominated and assimilated by yourself righteous moral BS! Get over yourselves. Life is truly easier when you do. I find it amusing you criticize others and never address your own fears and intolerance.

    Not sure who you are talking to Tal, but I don't have fears but I do admit to being a little intolerant of B/S. I have never said bigotry didn't exist and racism well it's apparent even when you deny it. What I have found is that some races are not as advanced in their thinking as others, have a real self esteem problem. That is a generalisation so let's put it this way civilised people are welcome anytime and barbarians please stay away

    It's a fallacy to think you can isolate a war, and seems you would be happy that the middle east is finally rejecting it's oppressive fundamentalist theocracies. That's not going to happen without years of struggle and bloody conflicts.

    There can be surprising changes Iran went from a democracy to a religious autocracy overnight and it could go back again just as easily. Egypt is trying to be a democracy but sometimes in such a process there will be periods of military rule, Pakistan emerged from military rule and the democracy appears to be holding. In indonesia they threw off military rule and they have democracy. The Muslim world wants something more than they have, yes it may take a while but what is clear, Egypt will not become the next Iran. We should not get the idea that western democracy is the only system, there are various versions of it, some work better than others
