Afghanistan is an example of what they wll do whenever and wherever they get into absolute power.

I don't know if I agree that the Taliban is the inevitable result of Islam, but regardless of that, they were certainly a bad example. They outlawed soccer and chess! Literally, people were playing chess behind locked doors in mortal fear.

Bill Jackson, For the very first time, I must agree with you. One wonders which will come first. The war with Islam, or the impending race war within the boundaries of the United States that will kill hundreds of thousands. The racial tension is at the ignition point, and I know of no way it can be averted without bloodshed. BTW, I am white, and would fight, only if absolutely necessary, to protect my family, and my property, but have known many kind, intelligent, and peaceful black people in my lifetime. Such a race war, would in effect, destroy North America, because you can bet it will spill over into Canada.
