I Would Like To Hear Your Reasoning
You Could Go On At Length So There Will Be No Misunderstanding On Anyone's Part

With regard to your query of Fiatlux:
Fiatlux does not engage in thinking.
In her post on the nature of truth entitled What I have found to be true in less than fifty years: the vast majority of people have no need or desire for truth
http://www.onepoliticalplaza.com/t-38369-3.htmlShe stated
Truth is a trinity: right heart, right belief, and right action.
Very touchy feely new wave! Who defined right, and what were the criteria for this definition. What is heart? This reminds me of the locker room scene from damn Yankees with the team singing You gotta have Heart. No, you gotta have talent, skill and ability; without these desire and determination are useless.
She essentially rejects objective reality and instead relies on the phantasm of her own imperfect perceptions, opinions, and general feel good philosophy.
In this current post she writes:
You guys are burying America with your paranoia n hate. Clueless to the great, irreparable, harm you are doing to this country. You are a traitor!
Is it paranoia if you truly have enemies who desire your destruction? Hate has become a shibboleth buzzword, synonymous with evil.
I hate the idea that an invader group is going to significantly alter our way of life. I hate the fact that these people are demanding that I change my form of government to a theocracy, based on their anti-life political cult. I hate the fact that their expressed desire is to murder, enslave, subjugate, demean me, and use my wife and daughters as sex slaves based on their perception of my alleged inferiority i.e. a different religion.
I hate their destruction of the cultural and religious legacy represented by the gigantic statues of Buddha they destroyed in Afghanistan. I hate the destruction of the Archeological treasures from the Hittite and Babylonian periods in Iraq. While I am not an adherent of those religions, they are still of value for their beauty and cultural significance in the development of civilization. What right had Moslems to diminish all mankind by these acts of destruction?
Fiatlux assumes Moslems are just ordinary people with the same aspirations as the rest of us. In this she once again refuses to accept objective reality. Since the inception of their political dominance agenda masquerading as a religion, Moslems have continuously engaged in unprovoked wars of aggression against everyone.
They have consistently engaged in Genocide
Warfare between Christians and Moslems has not ceased since Mohammed's successors took control. First the Holy Land, sweeping across Africa and up into Spain to be stopped by Charles Martel, founder of the Carolingian dynasty, at the battle of Tours in 732 AD. The Moslems fought on holding sometimes more, sometimes less, of Spain, as the fortunes of war ebbed or waxed. Moslem Africans (Moors) were imported and invaded on their own allying with, or attacking, the resident Moslems, according to who backstabbed better, Catholics or Moslems. This continued until Ferdinand and Isabella unified Spain and ousted the remnant of the Moslems some 400 years of incessant warfare and over this period the number of slain was horrendous.
The Turko-Mongol conqueror, Timur or Tammerlane, referred to himself as the "Sword of Islam". He converted at sword point, nearly all the Borjigin leaders to Islam during his lifetime. He laid waste to Egypt, Syria, the emerging Ottoman Empire and the declining Sultanate of Delhi.
Timurs armies were feared throughout Asia, Africa, and Europe, sizable parts of which were laid waste by his campaigns. Some think his feats rival Alexander the Great. Scholars estimate that his military campaigns caused the deaths of 17 million people, amounting to about 5% of the world population.
The Byzantine Empire was subsequently attacked and conquered by Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II around 1450. Constantinople became Istanbul and commenced the start of the Ottoman Turkish Empire expansion.
In 1346 the Bubonic plague started in China and moved westward aided by the ease of travel in the Moslem Mongol Empire. These Mongols laid siege to the port of Kaffa on the Crimean peninsula and catapulted plague corpses into the besieged city. The Mongol army withdrew, but succeeded in bringing the plague to Europe. By 1348 the Black Plague (aka Bubonic Plague) in Europe killed about 75 million. Contemporary accounts place the death toll at one third of inhabitants. All due to Moslem introduction of diseased bodies as an instrument of aggression subjugation. The aftermath forever altered the systems of property ownership and governance in Europe.
While the East was occupied in stemming Moslem invasion the western Balkans were succumbing to other Moslem forces. The area known as Yugoslavia was penetrated and conquered between 790 and 900 AD. The modern Bosnians are Moslem. Serbs are Orthodox Christians whose religion kept their national identity alive during four centuries of Ottoman Turkish occupation. After the death of Marshall Tito, the country went out of control and ancient animosities between Serbs, Croats and Bosnians re-emerged and manifested ultimately as the Bosnian Genocide.
In the early 1800s the Ottoman Empire began to break up with many subjugated nations recovering their Christian identities. The Ottoman Empire went from being multi-religious to a virtually Muslim empire (except for the Armenians, Assyrians, Syrians, Caldeans and Greeks). Armenia was part of the Turkish Moslem Orient question. (A question was a euphemism for we are going to kill you, Hitler was quite fond of questions, and he never invaded without one) In Armenias case, the Armenians demanded fair treatment in face of the corrupt Ottoman misrule that prevailed in the empire. The Armenians demanded, among other things, guarantees for their lives and property from attacks by Moslem Kurdish tribes.
The genocide of the Armenians began during the massacres of 1894-1896 when approximately 150,000 Armenians were murdered and a further 100,000 Armenians were forced to leave their homes.
These slaughters were carried out during and after World War I. In 1914 the Young Turks (the ruling military cabal) had full control over the events within the Turkish Empire and could orchestrate genocide. The main massacres of Christian Armenians occurred in 1915. The total number of people who were killed in the genocide has been estimated at between 800,000 to 1.5 million. More than 2,500 communities were emptied completely of their Armenian inhabitants and about 500,000 Armenians were impoverished totally when the Turks and Kurds confiscated their property. The massacres ended only when the pressure from the European powers increased and they threatened to military intervene in the same way they had done in the Christian Balkan countries.
The 1915 genocide was implemented in two phases: the wholesale killing of the able-bodied male population through massacre and subjection of army conscripts to forced labour, followed by the deportation of women, children, the elderly and infirm on death marches leading to the Syrian desert. Driven forward by military escorts, the deportees were deprived of food and water and subjected to periodic robbery, rape, and massacre.
This is the nature of Islam, the religion of peace.
Fiatlux is either ignorant of history or confusing her opinions with the true nature of the beast. Fiat forgets that the founding fathers declared independence because of oppression. Political, but the very First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech.
This is my credo. Historically Islam has proven that it is inimical to these precepts. So, who is the traitor?
