It's not just other religions getting the squeeze from Islam - it's the Muslims who ain't Muslim enough getting the squeeze also.

Richard - there is the third option - everyone alive ends up Muslim.

I am seriously voting for the trash heap (which is where that evilness belongs), but that is just me personally.
This initiative (of all days, why Sept 11?), the mosque, the constant complaining we hear from the left and the muslims about how we are all a bunch of islamophobes and racists, is not helping their cause IMO. Nor is any of it impressive in regard to their ability to assert their rights. I see it as the Grand March to Domination, which is at the top of their agenda. Want me and others to believe otherwise, then lets start seeing all those so called moderates come out of hiding and speak up!!!! A few out of the estimated 1.5 billion is nothing! It is not even a drop in the bucket.
I am straining an ear here, I don't hear a peep!
