Should those of religious faith be allowed to run this country?

We should have known something about Muslim intentions if only from the actions of the Muslim pirates who kidnapped and enslaved American sailors in the time of Washington and Adams, because America was considered by them to be a Christian nation, and Christians like all "infidels" worthy only of humiliation, servitude or death.

HOWEVER, none of this is relevant to the point, which is that the Muslim pirates considered American sailors to be Christians, and Christians to be fair game for kidnapping and enslavement. Don't change the subject.

This is nothing but revisionist propaganda.

This is a message written by Muhammad ibn Abdullah, as a covenant to
those who adopt Christianity, far and near, we are behind them. Verily, I defend them by myself, the servants, the helpers, and my followers, because Christians are my citizens; and by Allah! I hold out against anything that displeases them. No compulsion is to be on them. Neither are their judges to be changed from their jobs, nor their monks from their monasteries. No one is to destroy a house of their religion, to damage it, or to carry anything from it to the Muslims' houses. Should anyone take any of these, he would spoil God's covenant and disobey His Prophet. Verily, they (Christians) are my allies and have my secure charter against all that they hate. No one is to force them to travel or to oblige them to fight. The Muslims are to fight for them. If a female Christian is married to a Muslim, this is not to take place without her own wish. She is not to be prevented from going to her church to pray. Their churches are to be respected. They are neither to be prevented from repairing them nor the sacredness of their covenants. No one of the nation is to disobey this covenant till the Day of Judgment and the end of the world."

It seems that Islam, even when it reaches out to "allies," focuses primarily on hate.

This is written almost as if the default practice was to indeed destroy a house of worship if it is not the right kind. Christians are spared this fate for some reason (something to do with Abraham, maybe).

When Islam began in the 7th century, almost all the Middle East was Christian.

1) The Crusades were not Christian aggression.

Would you not consider it ominous if the majority of American Christian congregations and organzations were taken over by Nazis dedicated to our destruction...without a fight?

My feelings as a Christian points me to my Lord and Savior as a fighter. It points me to the man who once in loneliness, surrounded only by a few followers, recognized these Jews for what they were and summoned men to fight against them and who, God's truth! was greatest not as a sufferer but as a fighter. In boundless love as a Christian and as a man I read through the passage which tells us how the Lord at last rose in His might and seized the scourge to drive out of the Temple the brood of vipers and adders. How terrific was His fight for the world against the Jewish poison. To-day, after two thousand years, with deepest emotion I recognize more profoundly than ever before in the fact that it was for this that He had to shed His blood upon the Cross. As a Christian I have no duty to allow myself to be cheated, but I have the duty to be a fighter for truth and justice.... And if there is anything which could demonstrate that we are acting rightly it is the distress that daily grows. For as a Christian I have also a duty to my own people.... When I go out in the morning and see these men standing in their queues and look into their pinched faces, then I believe I would be no Christian, but a very devil if I felt no pity for them, if I did not, as did our Lord two thousand years ago, turn against those by whom to-day this poor people is plundered and exploited.
