Islam, hijacked!

The Islamic fanatics would not be content until all Western civilization is exterminated, completely and absolutely wiped out. They will not be content until the only rule of the land is based on the radical interpretations of the Koran. The opportunistic terrorists are using the publication of the satirical caricatures of Mohammad by a Danish newspaper as a pretext to inflame the hatred that already exists for the West. The mediocre caricatures were first published in September 2005 in an effort increase understading of the Islamic faith. And now after all these months is when we see the outrage. If the caricatures had been such an affront to Islam, the response would have been instantaneous, after all this is not the first time that Mohammed has been shown in drawings or carvings. Michelle Malkin has a picture of Mohammad in marble in the U.S. Supreme Court building in Washington...will they burn it down? Additional images can also be seen at Mohammed Image Archive.

Where are the moderate Muslims? They are cowering? Are there any moderate Muslims? If they exist, then they are quietly distancing themselves from the fanatics that have hijacked their religion. Well moderate Muslims, here is a listing of the atrocities committed in the name of God and the Prophet Mohammad. The time has come for the world to hear you, and hear you loudly.
