Well, for one thing, MtheGM, I have not ever defended extremist Muslims, or Muslim terrorists.

I disagree with even the idea that it would be possible for extremist Muslims to be able to spread global Islamisization through acts of terror. Although I have asked, you have yet to explain to me how this could possibly be done. How would it work, MtheGM?

Wreaking havoc is one thing. Imposing a political or religious order is something else entirely. As I said on the other thread, the leaders of al Qaeda themselves have stated many times that the purpose of their acts of terrorism is to scare the people of imperialist countries into pressuring their governments into withdrawing from Muslim countries. bin Laden himself has said this many times, for instance:


"A reaction might take place as a result of the US government's hitting Muslim civilians and executing more than 600,000 Muslim children in Iraq by preventing food and medicine from reaching them. So, the US is responsible for any reaction, because it extended its war against troops to civilians." -- 1997

"If the American government is serious about avoiding explosions inside the U.S., then let it stop provoking the feelings of 1,250 million Muslims." -- 1997

"Acquiring weapons for the defense of Muslims is a religious duty. If I have indeed acquired these weapons, then I thank God for enabling me to do so. And if I seek to acquire these weapons, I am carrying out a duty. It would be a sin for Muslims not to try to possess the weapons that would prevent the infidels from inflicting harm on Muslims." -- 1998

"We declared jihad against the US government, because the US government is unjust, criminal and tyrannical. It has committed acts that are extremely unjust, hideous and criminal, whether directly or through its support of the Israeli occupation of the Prophet's Night Travel Land [Palestine]." -- 1997

"We, God willing, will continue to fight you and will continue martyrdom operations inside and outside the United States until you abandon your oppression and foolish acts." -- 2003

"Your security is not in the hands of [Democratic presidential candidate John] Kerry or Bush or al Qaeda. Your security is in your own hands and each state which does not harm our security will remain safe." -- 2004


Let me repeat that last one:

"each state which does not harm our security will remain safe"
