Is that the one you are disputing?

"The book known as The Travels of Marco Polo dates from around the year 1300. The distinction between militant Muslims and moderate Muslims is clearly modern day terminology, and the claim that the moderates are not essentially different from violent terrorists is a familiar Islamophobic trope. It doesnt require much intelligence to work out that the quotation couldnt possibly have come from Marco Polo.
Even a quick google reveals the source of the quote. It can be found in a post entitled Great Thinkers on Islam that appeared in 2008 on Islam Watch, an extremist anti-Muslim website that claims to expose this religion of terror, hatred and mayhem.
As you can see, the quotation, albeit in a slightly different wording, is attributed to a philosophy professor named Dr M. Sabieski (an individual of such obscurity that, even if he actually existed, he has left no trace on the internet). A quote from The Travels of Marco Polo follows directly after, and reads: The law which their prophet Mohamed has given to muslims is that any harm done to any one who does not accept their law and any appropriation of his goods, is no sin at all.
What appears to have happened is that back in the day someone reproduced the quotation from Sabieski and misattributed it to Marco Polo. It has been circulating around the internet ever since, uncritically reposted by Islamophobes too stupid and bigoted to realise that Marco Polo never said anything of the sort."

The only answer I've received from letters to my Congresspersons are form letters in return.
Our corrupt Congress won't change the corrupt election system because it enabled them to be elected and reelected no matter how badly they perform.

Maybe YOU should be the one to take charge of all voting activity....but then again, then we would all have trust you.

We should at least get a printed receipt of how we voted.
The present system offers no method of doing recounts.

Because they are more tightly monitored with smaller populations to monitor by local citizens as opposed to federal personnel.
Even then you get no printed record of how you voted, you have no way of knowing how the machines are set up to record votes. You just have to trust them.

You're admitting that what you post is not accurate. You post sound bites.

The reason you can't add anything to this discussion is because it's impossible to defend Zionism when the truth is exposed.
If the actions of Zionism could be defended, then the actions of Nazis could be defended as well.

Obviously our votes do count, it's your votes that don't count for shit.
All votes end up in cyberspace with no public access to how they are recorded. We are expected to trust that our votes are counted accurately.
Do you trust those who tally the votes?

Yes, I have a question.
Where did you get the information which would cause you to make such a false statement?
