Re: Mitt Romney--is he sincere on stating his views?

Quote:
Islamic fascists (extremists, to be honest) are not just a threat to the US, but to many other countries ... Also, they've repeatedly said that one of their main goals is to cause death and destruction in/to the US (paraphrasing).
Goals of al qaeda ("3 teachings of bin laden"):
- removal of non-believers from islamic domaine (mainly Bin Laden's country saudi arabia)
- revenge for the deaths because of the iraq boycot
- return of Jeruzalem, Mekka and Medina to the islamic people.

Hamas:
- destruction of Israel to make it a sharia-based state called palestine

Hezbollah (not widely considered a terrorist organization since it disaproves attacks on civilians like the 9/11 WTC attack)
- fighting imperialists, mainly in lebanon (they arent even fascists, they are democratic and stand for freedom of religion)

Islamic jihad:
- turning lebanon into an islamic state

To conclude: I don't think the majority of islamic organizations called terrorists by the united states are fighting for the destruction of the US, and that is what is being said by politicians to the american people.
