If You're a Muslim Woman, You Have to Wear the Veil
So for instance, in France they have about 3 million Muslim women.
French police decided to figure out how many of them wore burqas and/
or niqabs and found the number to be ... 367.
Not 367,000, but 367.
There are actually more Muslim countries that outright ban the wearing
of the veils than there are that require them. They can do that
because wearing a veil is not required in Islam but is more of a
custom, depending on where you live and who's in charge.
Hey, speaking of which, try this number on for size: Of the five most
populous Muslim-majority nations, four of them have elected female
heads of state.
So there's a fantastic chance that in 2012, Sarah Palin will be
campaigning for an achievement that Muslim ladies have already
accomplished.

Our Founding Fathers Would Never Have Tolerated This Muslim Nonsense!
It's a good thing some Americans are standing up for good old-
fashioned American values and passing laws to prohibit Islamic law
from taking over the U.S., because that's totally around the corner!
John Adams hailed the Islamic prophet Muhammad as one of the great
"inquirers after truth."
Benjamin Rush, who was so Christian he wanted a Bible in every school,
also said he would rather see the opinions of Confucius or Mohammad
"inculcated upon our youth" than see them grow deprived "of a system
of religious principles."
Benjamin Franklin once declared: "Even if the Mufti of Constantinople
were to send a missionary to preach Mohammedanism to us, he would find
a pulpit at his service."
Even George fucking Washington personally welcomed Muslims to come
work for him at Mount Vernon.
Sultan Mohammed ben Abdallah of Morocco was the first world figure to
recognize the independence of the United States of America from Great
Britain in 1777.
Another reason was that the Founding Fathers were smart enough to
distinguish between terrorists and everybody else on the whole damn
planet, as demonstrated in the Treaty of Tripoli in 1797.
It was in this agreement that the U.S. declared:
"The government of the United States of America is not, in any sense,
founded on the Christian Religion, as it has in itself no character of
enmity against the laws, religion or tranquility of Mussulmen
[Moslems]."

"Muslim" Equals "Arab"
Remember that crazy lady with the Einstein hair who asked John McCain
if Barack Obama was an Arab? No? Well, let us refresh your memory:
We're willing to bet there's more than a 20 percent chance this woman
meant to say "Muslim" but accidentally said "Arab" because same thing,
right?
Only about 20 percent of the entire world's Muslim population is Arab
or North African.
For comparison, about 22 percent of the global Christian population is
African, yet when somebody says "Christian," you don't immediately
picture a dude from Africa.
Equating "Muslim" with "Arab" makes just as much sense.
While we in the West have been conditioned to associate Islam with the
Middle East, a whopping 61.9 percent of all Muslims -- aka a
supermajority -- don't live in the Middle East at all; most Muslims
live in the Asia-Pacific region. Indonesia alone is home to more than
200 million Muslims, and the Indian subcontinent has roughly a half-
billion Muslims.
It works the other way, too. For example, if you think being Arab
guarantees you being Muslim these days, well, we are sorry to
disappoint. As much as 10 percent of the world's Arab population is
Christian (that's more than 14 million people). That means there are 1
million more Arab Christians than, oh, we don't know ... the world's
entire Jewish population..

Western Cultures Are Far More Humane Than the Bloodthirsty Muslims
Muhammad laid out some pretty progressive rules of warfare, and
medieval Muslims out-niced the Christians in battle by a landslide.
Especially since Muhammad personally issued "a distinct code of
conduct among Islamic warriors" that included:
No killing of women, children or innocents -- these might include
hermits, monks or other religious leaders who were deemed
noncombatants;
No wanton killing of livestock or other animals;
No burning or destruction of trees and orchards; and
No destruction of wells.
In short, Muhammad wanted his armies to fight like freaking hippies.
During the fucking Dark Ages.
And they did.

Islam Is Stuck in the Dark Ages
Science and math as we know it wouldn't even exist without Islam. The
Islamic Golden Age caused a revolution in virtually every field of
human thought, during which they fucking invented algebra -- and
advanced everything from geography and exploration to the arts,
architecture, philosophy, urban development, medicine and health.
The Muslims actually came pretty damn close to sharing all this
brilliance with the truly ass-backward kingdoms of Christian Europe,
since the Islamic caliphates blanketed every country they conquered
with schools, libraries, public works and the most comprehensive
system of social welfare on the planet. In fact, the case has been
made that if the caliphates succeeded in conquering all of Europe an
Italian Renaissance would have been unnecessary.
