By Najla Turk, published 16/2/2017

I am your ordinary, middle-class, working mother that happens to be a practising Muslim who profoundly opposes terrorism and is ardently seeking harmony.

I have to point out that Nazi's and members of the Ku Klux Klan would be three distinct groups. Smarties who milk the money and advantage. Numpties who are too stupid to get out of their own way and fellow travelers who go along for the ride.
Same for the followers of islam.
I still laugh at the lefties who leap to defend the indefensible and actually encourage us taking on a massive problem. Well done guys and girls and do not forget you can blame the rest of us rather than yourselves.

Dear Jayb,

How can you speak on the behalf of all Muslims and
what they do or do not belief in or take literally.
That's simply nonsense. You can't speak on the behalf
of all Christians or Jews - as I've stated earlier -
fundamentalists exist in all religions. But not
all religious advocates are fundamentalists. And your
claiming they are is not only vile but dishonest.

Dear Is Mise,

How long have Muslims lived in this country - do you
know? And what percentage of them have caused us
problems? So don't rant on about Islam - are all
Catholics kiddie fiddlers? Did every Irish man
belong to the IRA? Is Catholicism not compatible with
democracy? Your prejudice is showing.

Also you have to be able to understand the
context and history of issues before making
judgements. Regarding Islam and democracy
Alon Ben Meir has written an excellent article
which is worth a read:

Foxy,

No need to rant, just shew me where Islam is compatible with democracy, I'm willing, in fact, anxious to be enlightened.

Shew me the references, just a few will do ( the one that you supplied didn't work).

None of the groups that you mentioned has a book of instructions that is anti-democratic.

Dear Is Mise,

My apologies for the typo with the previous link.
I shall try again and hopefully it shall work
this time:

The more relevant question that you should be asking
is how do most muslims live their lives in the democracies
that they inhabit around the globe? That would be a good
indication of compatibility for most folk. Also one has
to look at the history, circumstances, and context ot
the countries in which Islam exists - the conditions that
people live under - where there is no democratic traditions
and no separation of Church and State.

Precisely, and there are no democratic traditions allowable in the religious/political movement that is Islam, the Koran is against it.

The link worked this time, thanks.
Everyone should read it; it paints a picture that shews just what to expect from Islam, thanks for that as well.
