The Untold Story of Muslim Opinions & Demographics

[tonyz]

An interesting 14 minute video - remember the numbers...hundreds of millions of Muslims support policies and practices that are incompatible with our Consitution and the American way of life.

And, it appears that a not insubstantial number want to aggressively transform the western world into an Islamic world.

By The Numbers - The Untold Story of Muslim Opinions & Demographics
Clarion Project - Challenging Extremism | Promoting Dialogue
Published on Dec 10, 2015

By the Numbers is an honest and open discussion about Muslim opinions and demographics. Narrated by Raheel Raza, president of Muslims Facing Tomorrow, this short film is about the acceptance that radical Islam is a bigger problem than most politically correct governments and individuals are ready to admit. Is ISIS, the Islamic State, trying to penetrate the U.S. with the refugee influx? Are Muslims radicalized on U.S. soil? Are organizations such as CAIR, who purport to represent American Muslims accepting and liberal or radicalized with links to terror organizations?

Damn Tony, I was just starting to calm down from your last video.

Wow,

Powerful video, and from an educated Sunni none-the-less.

I've said for too long now, where is moderate Islam standing up and saying no to extreemism, why are we doing their job for them.

Well, this is one step in the right direction.

Exciting stuff.
Thanks Tony.

I'm glad that you each took the time to watch the video. Thank you.

IMO, this video contains an important message from a Muslim worth listening to and her ideas are worth sharing.

IMO, the conflict we find ourselves in will require both kinetic and ideological approaches in order to wear down and defeat a cancer that has infected far too many already.

Deniers and apologists for radical Islamic terrorists IMO merely prolong the pain and cause the death of far too many innocents. The evil exists...so does the solution.

Maajid Nawaz, Ed Hussain, Shaikh Mubin, and others who have been working hard and receiving death threats since early 2000. We should amplify their voices. Call me a delusional optimist (which I'm not once you take into account availability/negativity bias), but the Islamic/Muslim world is not without reprieve. IMHO, grace leads the way

Furthermore, terrorists/extremists do "quit" !

The moderates are actually the extremists because they do not follow "true Islam."

The "moderates" also supply the raw material for the terrorists. How many times have you heard relatives and friends say of a terrorist attacker: But I knew him and he was such a nice gentle person who never showed any interest in religion".

BINGO...

It never fails to get the "head in the sand" crowd excited to hear the TRUTH as the MSM wants you to hear..
