    Yes, fortunately they have been fighting off islamist terror quite well for quite some time already.

    I wasn't really talking to you. I didn't realize you view every Palestinian death to date as a terrorist death.

    Have some respect for dead civilians. Are you capable of doing that?

    Highly inappropriate of you.

    That sentence always amuses me on a message board.

    That's because I never said that. But feel free to continue to make up stuff. "Islam wins again, HAHAHAHAHA."

    You said that being better killers is a fortunate trait, because they are fighting off Islamic terror. You neglected the fact that those killers are killing civilians as well.

    However, I believe you. I actually believe that you didn't know it was implied within what yo usaid.

    Your childish inability to take a joke has taken you to a complete disrespect of the murder of civilians, to the point where you call it "fortunate" that the Israelis are so good at killing Palestinians because it affords them the ability to fight off Islamic terrorism.

    Take a step back for once.

    Did you even bother to go to the website? he sites every court case; has links to every government document; everything is very well sited. HE isn't even making an argument, just mapping terrorist activity, as discovered by the federal government. What agenda could he be pushing?

    The same one you are with posting your guilt by association slander.

    Tell me, do you believe (like some conservatives) that there should be no other mosques built in America?

    I clearly stated from the OP that I have no agenda in posting this information. Just found it interesting.

    Yes, I despise Islam. I find it on par with the Nazi or Ku Klux Klan belief system because of the way it treats woman. That being said all three (Nazis, Klanman, Islamists) have every right and should have every right to practice their religion assuming it does not invade on the rights of others.

    Did you read ANYTHING I wrote? or just that one line?

    That website has nothing 'investigative' on it. He knows how to use google maps....I'm not that impressed.

    He routinely lies and lacks any credibility. Think of how ATW trolls threads refuting anything Sweet Lou says by questioning his credibility, no matter how valid his points are, and now think of Emerson who has zero credibility.

    He falsified FBI documents time and time again. The Florida Weekly Planet reported how he falsified a number of documents and sent them to a number of publications trying to get his stuff printed. He then tried to sue them for defamation, but dropped the lawsuit when he realized the cards were stacked against him: FBI officials refuted him, AP reporters, and even Justice Department officials came out against him.

    He lies all the time. He said that he was offered to go in the witness protection program by the Justice Department. John Russell, a spokesman for the Justice Department's Terrorism and Violent Crimes Section, said "'We've never given any thought to putting him in the witness protection program.' Is there any truth to the allegation of an assassination team? 'No, none at all,"

    I perused the site when posted. There are a number of cases that exist regarding individuals, but many are completely unsubstantiated. There's one case listed where he cites a connection to "Al Qaeda, Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ)", but no criminal charges were ever filed by the FBI. If no criminal charges were ever filed and no one was indicted for any crimes, then why is it on his map? because there was an investigation?

    There have been ongoing investigations for the past 9 years on individuals and communities. How many names do you think are listed total? maybe 100? out of 7-10 million people, thats not significant and only substantiates the claim that an extremely small percentage of Muslims engage in acts like these.

    At the end of the day, you and ATW jumped all over this because it was expedient to what you were looking for. And yes, he has a very clear agenda; he's an opportunist who fancies himself on his 'terrorism' expertise, he tries to exploit terrorism for his own cause, getting on TV, and selling his books. And as I quoted before, Former Chief of Operations and Analysis at the CIA’s Counter Terrorism Center Vince Cannistraro said that he's on Israel's payroll so there are serious questions about his objectivity.

    Again, unlike you, he has everything sited. Isreal is an ally, why are you questioning it's motives?

    a) its spelled cited. Like citation.

    b) It would have taken me an inordinate amount of time to add hyperlinks to all of this. If you question any of it, simply google the quotes along with Steven Emerson and I trust you'll find them reported throughout the web.

    c) Isreal being an ally is beside the point. It's a sovereign nation that has its own interest; sometimes they align with ours, other times they dont, and they are not always the same. Anyone on the payroll of a foreign government is questionable, and the fact that a former FBI official used it as a point of undermining Emerson's credibility should tell you something about its relevance to this discussion.

    d) I explained in two posts already why his motives are being questioned.

    I come from a Jewish family. I'm just pointing out that Muslims don't have a monopoly on extremists, using Jews as an example. There just happen to be many more Muslims than Jews, and nobody cares when Jews go into Palestine and murder children. They're soldiers, so it's not called terrorism.

    Well, I guess if you managed to state that you have no agenda, that clearly makes it true. :rolleyes:

    Yes, fortunately. Their expertise at warfighting, along with the aid they receive from the United States has allowed a country the size of New Jersey to survive in the midst of a number of hostile nations whilst being bombarded by terrorist groups supported by more distant hostile nations.

    If the Palestinians, Syrians, Lebanese, Hamas, Hezbollah, Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, etc. were as competent as the Israelis, the nation of Israel would have been wiped out in either the 1948 war, the 1967 war, or in another action that would have taken place since then. I also don't think the Arab nations would have turned over territory the size of the Sinai (triple the size of Israel) to Israel following an Arab victory. Yes, fortunately.
