1 in 3 illegals caught from mexico into the USA are from Muslim Countries!

Noooooooo. All around the planet the same… oh no poor people, my God.
We must defeat this cult now, stop islam now and forever.
Samy says
Should read the Book “THE PEOPLE vs MUHAMMAD” By J.K.SHEINDLIN.
Dale Schaan says
The absolute best comparison of Christian doctrine vs Islamic doctrine in all the books I have read on the subject is, Answering Islam by Norman L. Geisler & Abdul Saleeb (a former muslim)
If you are an indoctrinated westerner who believes Islam is basically good but the many terrorists within it are simply extremists not following its teachings this book will educate you on the hard truth about what Islam actually teaches.
If you are a muslim and read this book with an open heart and mind, you will not be a muslim after reading this great book that tells the truth about what Islam teaches and how those teachings have resulted in 1400 years (and counting) of oppression, terror and violence!
The Jesus of the Bible taught with perfect godly wisdom how to live in peace and have love in your heart for your fellow humans and then Jesus showed His perfect love for the world by dying on the Cross for our sins and then rising on the 3rd Day, demonstrating His unique power to conquer death. The Jesus of the Quran is a false Jesus made up from the twisted mind of a warlord who claimed to be a prophet. This false Jesus not only contradicts Christian and secular history that point to Jesus Christ’s Crucifixion and Resurrection, but their unholy book even claims that Jesus is just a mere prophet below their warlord prophet Mo!
Mak says
How horrible.
How many people of every other belief system, from Atheist to Pagan (and everything in between) have to die so a single horrible excuse for a religion doesn’t get its “feelings” hurt?
The sooner every other group realizes that islam is an existential threat to the world the sooner we can rid the planet of it.
keith says
Pagans know this, and trust me on this. We will fight back to protect our families and other innocents
We are a very peaceful people,,,until pushed!.
Mak says
I have a very simple philosophy: Live and let live; protect the innocent. Every group needs to realize there is a common enemy here. Just read their hate manual (qur’an) and it’s plain as day.
Gene Peveto says
To bad so sad
Deborah Ellsworth says
Very true! If you can’t or won’t be converted to Islam then they must kill you, it’s in their so called bible!
Dawne says
Frankly I don’t see how we will ever rid the planet of Islam entirely. The best we can hope and plan for is to segregate Muslims from other religions – all other religions, as it isn’t only Christians they target. That will take a major change in public and governmental perceptions.
Unfortunately I think the only way this is going to come about is for many more of these atrocities to be carried out by Muslims- not only in countries like Sri Lanka where they barely make the front page of western newspapers but in the USA, UK, France, Germany, China, Russia etc etc. It’s going to take a major turnaround from the idiocy of western governments & policies of the last 70+ years and to undo the brainwashing of so many of the public. Unfortunately, people will need to feel PERSONALLY threatened to force a change in policy.
Vishnu says
Unfortunately overtime someone speaks about this horrid death cult they are branded racist. By a well entrenched ecosystem
Mak says
+1. But muslims can only attack so many people before the victims come to their senses and defend themselves.
Rob says
How many attacks does it take? There have been over 34,000 such attacks since 9/11…
Micky says
Well put Dawne, though I don’t think any of this can be changed as long as socialist governments have as much unmitigated power as they do. They would love us all to think that they are behaving in our interests, however they have a much bigger plan to tow the line on, and it involves world unification. As long as they are hell bent on these globalist ideas, this trend will not simply persist, but it will radically worsen until the point we are willing to allow governments to further militarize police and accept any other harsher measures of clampdowns until they are in our own back yards.
Walter says
And being a 3rd world country they have enough problems without Islam bearing its gruesome head. To the Christians in that poor Buddhist country, Easter must be a great respite from a tough life, I know that’s how I feel about Easter/Passover and I’m lucky enough to be American.
I wonder if that verse you quoted, 9.111 being as seminal in Islam as the Golden Rule is in Judaism and Christianiaty, was why the Jihadis chose Sept. 11 on the Greogorian, as a day for multiple attacks over the years? Because that does seem to be one of the verses directly condoning and advocating suicide bombing, in their berserk cult of death.
Stop Kafirophobia says
Cue the “Muslims Brace For Backlash” headlines, as well as lectures from Justin Trudeau condemning “Islamophobia and white supremacy”.
Bebe says
Of course…
Cicero says
It might just be a coincidence but …..six months ago a Muslim colleague told those with whom he deigns to acknowledge in the office that he was going on holiday to the “motherland “.
This statement is ironic since he was born Trinidadian Muslim and fits the “Jihadist Psychopath “ profile perfectly!
Micky says
Watch him very closely and report him to the right places if you need to
lebel says
Disgusting and appalling
commonsense says
Looks like some people did something, again.
Demsci says
I believe you. But could this have been done by “misunderstanders of Islam”? In your view?
If so, why do you cling to an identity with Islam when Islam among so many “normal” followers also inspires so many big crimes against humanity? If this is because Islam is interpreted in various ways, according to you yourself?
BUT WITH among these interpretations very violent prescriptive interpretations! Causing innocent bloodshed again and again!
Can’t people like you find some other less mixed dangerous and more beneficial identity? What does it take?!
lebel says
“I believe you. But could this have been done by “misunderstanders of Islam”? In your view?”
I “has” to be. If this is true Islam, I would be the first to clamour for forced deportations.
The reality is that these are extremists. The fact that they’re able to organise terror operations does not give their ideology more credence.
Demsci says
If you are a Moderate, Peaceful Muslim, I daresay these extremists drag YOU down. They TAINT you, is my view.
And worse, you modereates indirectly give the extremists power, however inadvertently,.
And since the religion Islam is so vague, multi-interpretable, and thus giving the extremists their ideology, and since religion, is a choice, a choice of identity, that means that you would do the other humans a service if you could change your identity. Is my view.
You remain always a wonderful creation of either God or evolution, with many facets, if you could change that identity.
The Awful Truth says
Catholics in particular targeted. In case there’s any doubt Sinhalese Buddhists, the majority community wouldn’t have the capability to do this nor had there been any historic acrimony. But this is international terrorism with no explanation. Lot of Muslim money sloshing around in Sri Lanka with a pathetically weak government.
Ramesh says
Correctly said, the majority have been bought over.
Deee says
Buddhist and catholic are two peaceful religions!
But Islam ruins the whole world with an infamous reputation..
All Sri Lankan muslims doing a nice drama but government doesn’t even bother!
Former president had had the information too but kept things silent to things to go bad and yield his next election.
Three Muslim politicians are said to have supported those terrorists but just enjoying their maximum freedom!
This is the big picture in brief!
Sorry for Sri Lanka says
Thank you for naming the suicide bombers, twitter is full of misdirection and western media is refusing to name because they don’t want people blaming Islamists, even though Islamists did it
kuriakose says
Deuteronomy 32:43
Rejoice, O heavens, with Him, and let all God’s angels worship Him. Rejoice, O Gentiles, with His people; for He will avenge the blood of His children. He will take vengeance on His adversaries and repay those who hate Him; He will cleanse His land and His people.”
Beneath the Veil of Consciousness says
BOYCOTT ALL MUSLIM COUNTRIES. THEY ARE CESSPOOLS OF HATRED.
Again, I believe David Wood is correct in his assertion that we are only a few more Islamic attacks away from major backlashes throughout the world.
All of this denial and sticking our heads in the sand reminds me of the 1889 Johnstown Flood in Pennsylvania. There were reports of many people not heeding the warnings to vacate the town do to the impending dam break. Those people paid with their lives.
There are many other examples throughout human history that seems to indicate that humans have difficulty facing certain harsh realities (e.g. “Peace in our time”).
Lesson: Don’t look to the politicians for guidance. Many of them are self-serving narcissistic sociopaths.
CRUSADER says
If your Politicians are not defending you and society from Islamist Supremacists
then they are TRAITORS.
Call them out on this!
We are at War, and the Politicians are clueless or in collusion with the enemy.
Yob Elgoog says
I’m just wondering now with China so embedded in Sri Lanka, whether this is an opening they may exploit to implant their forces permanently in-country.

Now we all need to be EVEN MORE careful NOT to offend Islam all around the world.

I find Islamic Christophobia very offensive
Rob says
You propose appeasement,
Palitha Senanayake says
Why are they not banning Koran for its hate speech?
Charles Lutz says
Palitha, they have not banned the Koran for its hate speech because they have not read it, have no idea what it contains.
Stefan Giles says
The West has sold out to multiculturalism which says that all cultures are equal. Islam exploits this and thinks our Christian lovingkindness is a form of weakness. Our leaders are blinded by these PC ideals and cannot see the threat in our midst. “Though seeing they cannot see. Tbough hearing they cannot hear ” – Jesus

So true

Silly headline. As if anyone thought the perps were angry Scotsman, or crazy Norwegians, or peeved Peruvians… you get the idea.
L Lupo says
The government has asked that the terrorists not be named so they are not martyrdized. You should respect their request .

The government is correct!!
Larry Abramson says
If Allah is such a great god, how come he needs these lowlifes to murder innocent people in his name. BTW, Allah hu akbar in Hebrew sounds very much like Allah hu akhbar – Allah is a mouse.
Deee says
Exactly!
All Muslims deserve a fine boycott!
I personally don’t buy from Muslims nor I associate Muslims!
You or I accept it or not all Muslims are full of violence. Only difference is how they express it until the right time for their wrong things to execute.
Michael E Wiener says
The presently identified attacker/murderers in the today’s Sri Lanka’s mayhem were supposedly local Muslims. Many, if not most Muslims and many of their supporters claim that militants of their faith are responding with their violence to the Palestinian – Israeli conflict. Bull. Whatever problems Sri Lanka’s Muslim minority may have, if any, are distant from those of the Middle East. Utmost intolerance seems imbedded in the teachings and practice of Islam that calls for physical destruction of those unwilling to convert to Islam or subjugate to its rule. The problem is Islam and its practices and until it will find a way to reform itself, it may be safer for the rest of the world to find a way to separate itself from its followers or at least from those who are unable or unwilling to fully and unequivocally demonstrate a commitment to the values of a more enlightened and tolerant society. If needed, by force. Sad, but safer for the rest of us.
Brian hoff says
Only the muslim goverment of India is reporting his than they are blias against Islam.
Brian hoff says
Only the hindu government of Indiav is reporting this than they avre blias against Islam at least you need 175 government reporting this.
