what you expect from leading terrorist nation.


Compared to the leading terrorist religion islam.US responding to islam is hardly terrorism. Unfortunately islam wins hands down in the terrorism department and are by far the worlds leading terrorists. Everyone knows that. Why do you think so many muslims and islammic apologists are all bent out of shape. They don't have a leg to stand on. Maybe they will cut down on cutting babies and children in half in front of there parents before killing them to increase PR.

There is no evidence of the existence of a muslim,mohammed,or quran until 60 years  after mohammed was supposed to have died. Grin Grin Grin Posting on islam just encourages them and is a waste of time.
