You mean correct. I'm still waiting for answers to the questions previously posted.
Which question
Actually, it still hasn't.
What hasent?
Ahhh, the truth finally spoken. First, you posted much of the MEK which reaffirms that it is a terrorist group. And then, you post that our government has the duty to do what's in its best interest (which is true), BUT, you include teaming up with TERRORISTS within that duty. I see. Bush. "United We Stand." "With terrorists, to fight terrorists."
So what's up with the "either you're with us, or you're with the terrorists?" if we, ourselves, team up with the terrorists.
Irony, defined. Double Standard, defined.
So in your little world, we should not have sided with the French resistance in WW2? Irony, defined. Double Standard, defined.
And one more thing, "
if you do not understand that our government has the duty to do whats in its best interest"..... Hezbollah (a terrorist group) is the government form of Lebanon who does what it thinks is best for its people. "the answer is YES sometimes we need bad allies. And yes, that is OK." So by your own definition, what is wrong with Hezbollah? They are a terrorist government form, merely doing what's best for THEIR people, while 'YES sometimes they need bad allies, and yes that is ok'.
Your true nature is absolutely showing. Defending Hezbollah. Great. They do it, we do it. Do you see how the world works now?
So you are supporting terrorists because in the end, it is for "your own good." How is that any different from Lebanese citizens supporting Hezbollah? Because after all, they are supporting terrorists (Hezbollah), because it is for their own good (Hezbollah protects them, gives them recovery aid after Israeli attacks, rebuilds broken parts, etc).
But thankks for clarifying it all up! Bottom line, you support terrorists because in the end, "it's for your own good." And quite evidently, Bush feels the same way.
Obvioulsy you are cheering for Hez b Allah. Do what your side needs to do and our side will do the same.
Extreme righties have redefined 'irony' and 'double standard' to a whole new level.
You seem to think its OK for your side, Hez b Allah to do it, so we do it. Thats what I was saying in all my posts. The world makes strange bedfellows. Why am I different than you.

All three links mention the Khalil Gibran International Academy.
First of all, the Principal is a Jewish lady. So much for this being a radical Islam school. And, this school is open to Christians, Muslims, Jews, etc.
Second, the name itself of school Khalil Gibran, is based on a
Christian Lebanese-American philosophical essayist, novelist, mystical poet and artist. In case you didn't know MANY Arabic speakers are actually Christian.
Third, the curriculum offers Arabic language classes and general ME studies. Nothing wrong with that.
Fourth, students aren't even all Muslim. From your own article, it mentions a Christian parent:
"Carmen Colon was thrilled at the prospect of sending her 11-year-old son to the school.
"I know for a fact that any American who learns Arabic will make tons of money whether it's translation, whether it's in the customer service area," she said. "I thought it was the best advantage I could give my son."
that poor woman continued:
"
"The people who are so against the school for me seem more like the terrorists, by terrorizing the community and making us feel that it's unsafe for our children to be there," she said. "They're the ones who are terrorizing us. Not the school, not the principal and not the administration." "
I think she hits it dead on the nail!
I think it is unfair for my tax dollars to be paying for a school with a religious theme when other religions are not represented the same way. This is my point about Muslims not fitting in.
Lastly, I didn't even bother scrolling down on that last link, the one with the law firm. All I had to see was a Cross, Shield, and a Sword, with the words "Sword and Shield for the People of Faith" and deduce it as some Christian based law firm. Not exactly the most 'balanced' source of information.
I know, who do those Christians think they are asking for special consideration? And thats very open and enlightened of you to not do all the "research" you pride yourself on because its Christian. Now, if it had a cresent on it things would be a little different!
Bottom line, if this is your best response to how radical Islam is demanding public schools with public funding, you will have to do better. This Academy has nothing to do with radical Islam.
Here is a cut from Reuters to show you why people are concerned:
Then just weeks ago, its founder and principal, Debbie Almontaser, resigned after being linked to a group of Muslim artists who printed T-shirts using the word "intifada."
Almontaser has said that the term, which often refers to the Palestinian uprising against Israel, can be understood as a feminist slogan meaning "shaking off." Facing a firestorm of criticism, Almontaser was replaced by Danielle Salzberg, a longtime educator who is Jewish and does not speak Arabic.

Here is why Catholics are concerned.
Team up with terrorists, sure go ahead. Just don't complain to me when those terrorists attack us in the future.
I wont, unless of course it is Hez B Allah who has already threatened to bring suicide bomb cells to America.
So you telling me to 'go back to your country' is dumb, for you (at some point in your family's background) immigrated here yourself.
First of all, we aren't talking about radicals and the cutting off of heads. We are talking about you and me trying to have a debate on a forum. "
I choose to call people names".... so that having been said by you, it's ironic you are the one labeling me as a 'tool.'
You are a tool who will keep writing and writing and writing
Keep it professional and debate like a grown man. It's the same reason TWA_Dude refused to answer your post from the other thread. You can call others 'tools,' but when they see your posting behavior, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out who the real 'tool' is.
Hey, I thought you did not call people names, sigh, another Muslim myth exploded.
As a convert, he did not learn to read Arabic like a native speaker. As a result, he could not interpret the Koran for himself. Add in radical friends, and that fueled his desires while in prison. Like I said, he should never have been let out.
I know, but you continue to ignore the fact that Reed, like others claim outright they only did what the KORAN told them to do....Its all in the book.
Look at your namecalling of both myself and TWA_Dude, and then look in the mirror to see who the 'shallow' one really is.
Yes, both you and TWA Dude are my heros. Except you are a tool.

Clearly, it doesn't bounce off of you, because you respond each time. And I, too, will respond to your posts. All I ask is for some professionalism to keep it an grown-adult debate.
