J. Kenyon,

Be careful of your sources....

After reading some of their material, I could easily say much of their information is suspect. Judge for yourself....

Ask yourself one more question, what kind of person is going to convert to Islam after the atrocities of 9/11? If this article happens to be true (which I doubt), then the people who have converted as the result of the atrocities are not ones we should care to much about.

In fact, if their inference is that the atrocious events helped draw people to Islam, and to be convinced to convert, that is warped and sick!

Think about that logic.....

God Bless,
IGIT

I doubt very much people are converting to Islam, but rather the level of curoisty has risen to an all time historic high. And that does not mean people are converting.

Regretfully and as is the case, Americans tend to respect novelties such as human rights, freedom of expression, liberty and justice and the fundamental principal of "a person is innocent until proven guilty". These are the concepts that the Islamic world has absolutely no understanding of, or the willingness to understand!

Because of all such civilized notions (e.g. freedom of expression, religion, political affiliation, human rights, etc.), people here in the U.S easily accept the peace and love B.S that is put up by the so called Islamic leaders in this country, and because of the media trying very hard to be politically correct, the truth is not easily brought up about Islam!

However, once people start learning about Islam and really dive into what Quran and the other Islamic teachings (such as the book of Hadith) say, no one in his/her right mind would accept Islam as anything but a manipulative cult with evil hidden inside it (in my humble opinion of course).

This web site is a confirmation to me that the Internet truly is a source for finding any kind of information you want. People can put out any kind of garbage they want to, without any proof that they are telling the truth. You have to use common sense. A lot of sites have even been shown to be hoaxes or someone's idea of a joke.

J Kenyon, If posting that link is your idea of a joke, it is a sick one. It is, obviously, a completely biased site attempting to gain some sort of acceptance for the tragedy of 9/11. Perhaps you are too young to understand what propaganda is, and the fact that is, virtually, all untrue, and is intended to hide the truth in an attempt to "pull the wool" over unsuspecting peoples eyes.

If you believe in this tripe, you do not belong in the United States, because the people that present this site to the public is in the business of destroying the United States.

Unless, I have made mistakenly read your motives in posting this volatile link, then I consider you to be despicable.
