All Muslims should be expelled from the west totally. You’re not welcome.

Jesus said, “You will know them by what they do.” Look at Dearborn, now and 40 years ago. Arabs bring strength to their communities:economically, socially, etc.

They bring tyranny. It’s what they do. It isn’t a ‘religion’. It’s a political ideology they want to conquer the earth.

It is satanic.

Great article @Mahmoud Elmutasim .

I totally agree that “Judeo-Christian” is a made-up nonsense term that has no basis in history. I consider it just pro-Israel propaganda. In my opinion Islam is very compatible with modern America, whether you’re in MAGA red country or liberal blue country.

I go to interfaith events at the local Muslim center a few times a year. Last month I attended the annual CAIR banquet. I love the people and the community, always a warm and welcome environment.

One thing I would like to ask you, and it’s something that many Muslims don’t talk about, is the influence of Saudi and Qatari-backed clerics who preach the more fundamentalist Salafi and Wahhabi teachings. Sectarian hatred and intolerance is something that I believe is NOT compatible with our society. This movement is often linked to Western-backed Muslim Brotherhood groups and it often shares goals with Zionism and western empire. Syria is the perfect example, also Libya and Sudan.

How do Muslims in the U.S. view the Salafist movement? Many people still don’t really know about it. How does the US Muslim community in general view these clerics, are they welcome?
