Didn't these candidates notice the Baker Report or don't they give a toss.?
Not only do we not give a toss about the Baker report but we dont care about international law either.

The Jewish and Muslim voters probably don't even make up the 5% of the voters...there's the whole other 95%...guess who they'd vote for?

Took the words right out of my mouth. Any person running for president that uses their pro-Israel or pro-Palestine stance as a main selling point isn't going to get too far.

You know, in some ways, bush may be the most Islam-loving Pres in recent history. Because of his foibles, Islamic rebel groups have become much more widespread and more influential in the Middle East. than they were before him.

One wonders why these rebels never thought to thank bush for that. They should've said "Thank you, Bush" at least once before saying "Screw you" to him.

Are you kidding? Islam is pretty unpopular in the United States these days...

See there were these Islamic Radicals that flew planes into the World Trade Center and Pentagon in 2001. Since then, there has been Anti-American rhetoric coming from Clerics all over the Middle East.

I think that a an Pro-Islamic candidate is possible.. Hell we have had socialist and communist candidates run for office in our country. However, they would have no chance of winning as our elections are based on a popular vote and the electoral college.

Moon, who would you nominate as your pro-Islamic candidate? I'm interested to know even though I sure as hell wouldn't vote for them.

Re: Where is the pro-Islam candidate ?

Fortunatly, the vast majority of Americans recognize the moral superiority of the Isrealis over the Palistinian terrorists.

Why don't you contact your congressman in your area and ask....Oh, that's right, you only pretend to be an American.

Re: Where is the pro-Islam candidate ?

Pretending to be American doesn't have any advantages.

This thread's fairly short and already it's shot through with Islamophobia. That's undeniable. Most that have posted here are Islamophobic. That's my first cow come home.

What did the Palestinians have to do with the WTC bombing ? Absolutely nothing. On the other hand, you've got the statements by bin Laden that the appalling treatment of Palestine, by Americans and Zionists, is the cause in part for his campaign.
What most are proposing here is that Palestine can be safely ignored and the Zionist coffers stuffed further without any worldwide adverse reaction.
Plainly, recent history proves that position wrong.
Cow number two.

This warning is also issued by the Baker Report, a report which, in itself, was commissioned to find out why America is fucked overseas. Now, I'm guessing that most of the anti-war candidates will be honking the Baker message with regard to quitting Iraq but , simultaneously, they'll be ignoring the root cause of the problem as identified by the Iraq Study Group- Palestine.

So, with every candidate, without exception so far, arse-kissing Zionism whilst pissing on Palestine, it appears that America is due for much of the same for the foreseeable future, war and dead people, lots and lots of them, Americans included.
This is America's future. War and death. And it's coming America's way because Americans won't listen to the voice of over one-sixth of the entire world's population- Islam.
The candidates stink.
Moo.

Hmm...well Bush certainly is pro-arab and doesn't discriminate against Arab states, for example he has excellent ties with the Saudi Royal family and reigning monarchs of the Emirates, Kuwait and Jordan. Now let's go back to the saga of the DPW deal....now who were the ones who were discriminating against muslims and Arabs?

Moral superiority of people who are not terrorists over those that are is a fairly clear cut choice, of course not all Palestinians are terrorists. Perhaps you could spend some time looking at footage of Israeli radicles armed to the teeth watched over by the IDF beating up on unarmed Palestinians trying to take their children to school or harvest some olives. Hatred and extremism isn't limited to the Palestinians

And rightfully so. Now we have to educate them to 'recognise the moral superiority' of the Palestinians over the Zionist terrorists.

Right, wrxsti ?

Islamophobia? I’ve enjoyed the recent surge of phobias that have made it mainstream … as though being considered a part of one is somehow demeaning. With that in mind, I suppose you have a case of Zionphobia.
