Hi Hawkmoon; Re: "Thus, my question stands.. how many of these American muslims represent converts of Africans who's ancestors were not slaves, and how many are African muslims who have FREELY immigrated to the US?"

The above doesn't make much sense, probably because of a typo. If what you're asking is what percentage of American muslims are the descendants of US slaves (who likely were Christian and then converted to Moslem), then the figure is about 42%.

By the way, your whole point was that the Moslems in this country who emigrated here were likely to love this country because they knew what it is like in their former country, but so far the terror threats in this country has been from the very people you are claiming would be naturally on our side. I don't think you understand how bad the Iraq war is on our relations with the rest of the world.
