America is waking up.
More than 50 percent of Americans
recognize Islam is not a peaceful religion (as described in our children's
textbooks,) according to an ABC News Poll.
"The survey...showed a sharp rise
in people who think Islam does not teach respect for the beliefs of non-Muslims
- 22 percent in the previous poll compared to 43 percent today."
That might happen after hundreds
of Christians are butchered over a remark about Muhammad and the beauty
pageant in the Middle East.
In January 2002, 14% said mainstream
Islam encouraged violence. Today that number has more than doubled at 34%,
despite a massive marketing plan to promote Islam as peaceful, even mandating
university students read a whitewashed version of the Quran.
For American's to recognize the
threat of Islam means we can recognize that our liberal media is tainted
beyond recognition of truth. Enter the spin. "ABC said people who feel
they do understand Islam are much more likely to view it positively."
Are those who "understand Islam"
the same who have swallowed the glut of propaganda insisting that Islam
is peaceful? Anyone who claims to "understand" the irrational hatred of
Islam must be in full-blown denial of it, which is exactly what the liberal
media and factions of our government try to convince us of. These polls
show America isn't buying it, and as time goes on, it's harder to ignore
the reality of the violence sanctioned in the Quran.
Those of us who have truly studied
raw Islam, the history of it, and the Quran find it hard to "understand."
It's easy to understand the whitewashed version of it, because it's wishful
thinking, but the reality of Islam is irrational hatred of Middle East
Muslims toward Christians and Jews.
Those who claim they understand
Islam are those who have blindly accepted what they've been spoonfed by
men like Colin Powell and our public schools, and would view Islam positively,
because it's a whitewashed positive presentation stripped of reality.
Of these who claim to "understand"
Islam, 59% call it peaceful. Therefore, ABC apparently concludes, to understand
Islam means to realize how peaceful it is, attempting to substantiate that
those who know, vouch for it's peacefulness. But that doesn't quite jive
with the increase of people recognizing that Islam is violent. It's a skewed
conclusion.
This poll should be analogous with
sheep and wolves:
"Sheep who feel they do understand
wolves are much more likely to view wolves positively. Of those sheep,
59 percent call wolves peaceful and 46 percent think wolves teach respect
for sheep."
Would this be the opinion of sheep
as they watch wolves tearing and ripping into their fellow bleating sheep,
just as we watch Christians and Jews slaughtered by Islam in the news?
Why are some Americans dumber than sheep?
"ABC said the poll showed younger
and better-educated people are more apt to have favorable views of Islam."
These must be our precious children
who are captive audiences to the "peaceful Islam" propaganda, found in
school textbooks such as "Across the Centuries", or "Islam, A Simulation"
handout that proselytizes Islam. Did encouraging children to pray to Allah,
memorize the tenants of Islam and in some cases, fast for Islam, make an
impact? Rather than using the term "better-educated," ABC should have said,
"better-propagandized." This only proves the communist brainwashing tactics
of multiculturism in public school are effective! This has so much spin
it makes one dizzy.
"The ABC News poll was conducted
by telephone Sept. 4-7 among a random national sample of 1,004 adults with
a three-point error margin."
There must have been a lot of liberal
Californians at home that day to pick up the phone.
I live in California (smile), I
can say that.
