'Muslims go, war follows'
Here is what one reader had to say about today's story about Islamophobia:
Its wasnt alienated Muslims that set off bombs in Madrid and London any more than it was alienated Muslims that comitted 9-11....It was evil Islamists.....You try to make the argument that it was alienated Muslims because you think all we have to do to stop the problem of terrorism is simply be more open to Islam, more understandind. But this multicultural attitude is exactly what leads to the spread of radical Islam. As Muslims see such multiculturalism as weakness. You are terrified of the truth: That is we are headed for a civilizational war, not unlike the middle ages.If Muslims simply want to be included as part of US society, why then do Muslim cab drivers in Minneapolis, refuse to transport passengers carrying alcohol??? Why do Muslim cashiers in Minneapolis refuse to handle packages of pork and bacon??? Why is Minneapolis the test case to see if wider American society will accept Sharia???? Perhaps it is because Minneapolis is a city that pratices the type of tolerance that multiculturalist advocate.
Everywhere Muslism go, war follows.

Its sad, but the entire world thinks the same way about the US- everywhere we stick our nose war, strife and civil unrest follows.
I think we can begin by asking what our Latin American neighbors think of us then we can venture out to other parts of the world- to aid our endeavor we can use a color by number strategy so that way we can place Iraq and Iran in the right place on a world map.
Huh, I wonder why we would need to do that?
Fear of others is part and parcel just ignorance, by getting to know one another we have the oppurtunity to understand and develop. What is happening in Minnesota I as an American Muslim no more agree with then what was stated in this comment.
But I am sure if you go back to other immigrant communities there were similar "growing pains" felt while those communities found their American identity.
