For me it is. The Muslim/Arab countries have made it quite clear, for decades, that Jews are not allowed to live in the Middle East. Jews were driven from every Arab/Muslim country, into the tiny land of Israel.

One would think that the Arabs/Muslims would be happy to be rid of all Jews within their midst. Jews only have a tiny area of the Middle East to live. But for ALL of the Muslim/Arab nations, that is not good enough.

America has strived to be a place where all religions and all cultures can live together, as one nation. America is the great melting pot. Minorities are safe in America. Americans are strongly opposed to discrimination and racism. It is one thing that makes America the greatest nation on earth.

But why are so many quiet when it comes to Muslim/Arab discrimination and racism and blatant religious intolerance against Christians, Jews, Hindus and others? Why does everyone accept that Muslims/Arabs openly teach hatred towards Christians and Jews in their Mosques and schools, even in America?

It seems like the entire world is willing to look the other way when it comes to Arab/Muslim atrocities, racism, genocide and religious intolerance.

Why is that?

Not all of them, of course. In Gaza, where the Pal-Arabs live in misery, 25% of them desire peace with Israel.

Did your Palestinian teacher ever advocate peace between Arabs and Jews?

I am amazed at a comment like that. We don't even know how many organizations in America are contributing to Al Qaeda. The UN was bleeding billions from the totally corrupt Iraqi "Oil for Food" program, and no one knew about it. We don't even know how many terrorist cells are here in America, waiting to strike.

You really believe that we had/have any idea how much was contributed to terrorist organizations through Iraq? Iraq was a brutal dictatorship, one that hated America, one that openly funded Hamas and other terrorist organizations. Could some of those Hamas funds have gone to Al Qaeda? Could some of the "Oil for Food" funds have gone to Al Qaeda.

We don't know the answer to those questions any more than we know right now, how many organizations in America are funding terrorism.

How much is CAIR giving to Al Qaeda?
