I'm just posted the facts, John. Now you want to gas the Muslims? You're a little sick. I'll take you back to the start of my conversation with tejek on the growth of Muslims in Europe. The original point of the conversation was that I said Europe failed to support the U.S. position in Iraq because they had to kowtow to their growing Muslim populations. Tejek denied that they had a large Muslim minority that was getting larger fast. I rebutted by posting various sourced that proved my point. Your rejoinder was to intimate that I wanted to gas the Muslims. That was what we like to call a non sequitur. Not sure where you got that. If there was to be any addendum to my conversation with tejek, I'd say two things: 1) Europe needs to get it's head out of its ass and do a better job of integrating its Muslim population in such a way as they become more moderate and less discriminated against. 2) Europe needs to get it's head out of its ass and realize they have a huge stake in any effort to bring democracy to the Middle East. Maybe they don't agree with the invasion of Iraq, but they have a lot more to lose if a radical Muslim group takes over in Iraq and the U.S. leaves. Because a radical Iraq is on Europe's doorstep, not the U.S.'s.
