Re: More endorsements from the sum bunch for Trump
Now this is funny; since both parties have a long history of lying about the facts. Liar Liar?

Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Re: Islam's agenda
Unless the police release the ethnic identities of the perps there is unfortunately no evidence except the impressions of those who have been watching the events unfold over the last decade or so.
Yet in the same breath you lay this all at the feet of Muslims and go on for several pages stating how Christian radio taught you how it was those damn Muslims without a shred of tangible evidence to support the bare assertion.
Your audacity is astonishing.... I'm not even mad; I'm more impressed at how you can be that duplicitous with a straight face.

Re: Islam's agenda
I know the Jewish experience. All we ever heard was the Jewish experience until I became a Christian and saw what the Bible actually says. It is sad because "Christians" DID persecute them although they haven't the slightest justification for it from the Bible. Christians also gave them refuge from the Nazis, however, and some died in concentration camps for doing it.
So, as you have accurately illustrated, we cannot make sweeping allegations against Jews or Christians based solely on their faiths, right? So the question is: why aren't you extending the same courtesy to Muslims since Muslims are every bit as diverse as Jews and Christians are?
That's really the central issue that you keep overlooking. I mean, honestly, have you forgotten that ISIS and Pro-Assad regimes are not only fighting each other (Muslim against Muslim) but also are slaughtering innocent Muslims in the crossfire?
You paint with the broadest brush possible, Faith.

Brief Mention Of The Topic
We interrupt Faith's wrongathlon to tell you that Rubio has quit having failed to take Florida. He was hoping to take it because it's his home state, whereas everyone else was expecting Trump to take it because Florida is full of the sort of people who live in Florida.

Re: Islam's agenda
I'm not overlooking anything. I'm talking about ISLAM, the written religion, the "holy books," NOT THE PEOPLE. The evidence I want to find is about ISLAM, what ISLAM says, what the LEADERS OF ISLAM say, not the many different brands of Muslims. Sheesh, you don't pay attention to anything I say.

Re: Islam's agenda
There's every reason to believe the reports that it's predominantly Muslims doing this, and just about all the nonmainstream reports say so. The Muslims are the fastest growing population in France and they are starting to make their presence felt. For the last four years or so the Jews are leaving France because of the Muslim attacks on them. Kind of a sign, maybe, perhaps, that the Muslims are expressing a lot more aggression lately. Didn't you read the information about that? What's the matter with you? You get more things wrong about what I post than just about anybody else. For one thing I get the impression you just about never read any of the posts before the one you are replying to.

Re: Islam's agenda
Sorry I didn't include the Breitbart link, but I don't really feel like it now anyway after your reply.
The quote was from the article -- you know, like how you quote things somebody else said?
The article I pasted was not from Breitbart. It's from a Jewish source called Algemeiner.
You don't include a link to the Newsweek article and I don't even know where you saw it.

Re: Islam's agenda
No I did not because you wont read it. I told you the name of the article for you to do the research. You did not tell us them name of the Breitbart article, so there is no way to research it.
Tell you what, you at least tell us the names of the articles and I will link to the ones I use.

"God did it" is not an argument. It is an excuse for intellectual laziness.

Re: Islam's agenda
I found the Breitbart article. The information in the article says nothing to support this premise.
quote:
Jews are leaving France in record numbers citing fears of Islamic terrorism
They claim to link to a report by Jewishagency.org but the link is to the homepage. Searching that site shows no report on the subject.
It does say this.
quote:
An official Israeli government report into global anti-Semitism published Sunday shows that France is not alone in fighting a rising tide in anti-Jewish sentiment with more than 40 per cent of European Union citizens hold anti-Semitic views
Maybe you should read the whole article.

Fun In The Summertime!
3/16 - 1 am Eastern
Donald - 621 delegates pledged
Ted - 395
Marco - 168
John - 138
Marco Rubio has dropped out of the race after losing his home state, Florida.
John Kasich won his home state, Ohio, but trails the delegate count badly.
Donald Trump now has more than half the 1237 delegates needed for nomination already pledged to him.
Hillary - 1094 pledged with another 467 super delegates in support
Bernie - 774 pledged with 26 supers in support
At 1561 pledged and support delegates Hillary now has more than half the 2382 delegates needed for nomination.
With the Democrat leadership fully on board, barring a Bernie-led miracle (2405 delegates still to be selected), Hillary will win the Democratic Party nomination.
The Republican leadership, however, is not so well enamored of their lead candidate and are, so rumor has it, maneuvering (1136 delegates still to be selected) to prevent a first ballot win at the convention thus releasing the majority of delegates from their pledges to specific candidates and into a brokered convention.
This is gonna be fun.

Re: Islam's agenda
I did already read that. Other anti-semitisms don't change the fact that the Muslim population is a HUGE contributor to the attitude.
Doesn't "40 percent of European Union citizens" include the Muslim population? The Left in general, however, is anti-Israel which Jews regard as anti-Semitism. Seems to me if a Jewish site says Jews are leaving because of fear of Islamic anti-Semitic violence that ought to be taken as the reason they are leaving. Leftist anti-Israel anti-Semitism isn't usually violent but Muslim anti-Semitism is.

Re: Islam's agenda
Don't forget the rise of the far right, which is also associated with anti-Semitic violence, and is also of concern to Jews in Europe.

Re: Islam's agenda
But there haven't been any reports of far right violence, just Muslim violence, and Muslim violence is the reason the Jews give for leaving.
