To whom it may concern, I've taken quite some time to read most of the posts on your website. Just wanted to discuss some viewpoints. There have been many struggles in society, wars and people who claim to have "solutions" to prevent things like war. Many times throughout history there have been groups of people with an idea of how things should be. For those people with a idealistic future in mind, there will always be a struggle. I am an American. Not liberal or conservative. I am not a member of the "Tea Party". I was raised in a Christian home, although now I do not believe in a mass organized religion, but more of a individualized walk with god. I am not a fan of Christianity forcing it's way into education, or any religion for that matter. I have retained a very neutral, open minded and tolerant position on most things. I also totally discredit all forms of news media; CNN, NBC, CBS, Fox News, they are all liars...that is their job. I am not your average 22 year old, in 2001 my family sponsored a entire family from the Sudan. A father, Mother, 10 year old, 4 year old, and a infant were chased out of their home town, and had to flee in the desert for 37 days. The Father's bakery was burnt to the ground. Their house and all their belongings were burnt to the ground. This was done by a group of Muslim extremists in Sudan. They were brought to America and lived in our house for 2 years, until they could stand on their own feet, and they have been living on their own for almost a decade now. The father was the only one who spoke English, the others Dinka. He told stories of horrible things. Still to this day, I do not use this as a judgement for Muslims. You are just as much my brothers, as one of my own family is.
I know what a struggle is.
I live a struggle every day. I understand that the struggle for Israel has been going on for ages. My struggle is different. Our great country was founded on liberty. Freedom from the British. Where each citizen has rights formed in the Constitution. I appreciate these things on a level that one should. I cannot express to you how lucky I am to live in this environment. However, most Americans have taken such things for granted. People are extremely lazy. They want everything handed to them on a silver platter. I come from a family of hard work and devotion. I have earned everything I have. For lack of a better term, most Americans want our government to "wipe their ass" for them. This makes me sick. I hate to think I am growing up in a country that in 20 years or so, will have none of the core foundation that it was built on. This is a country where illegal aliens can come in, evade taxes, get a free education, well-fare, healthcare and whatever else they need. All the while, hard working citizens can get nowhere. All the leeches sitting back collecting well-fare contribute NOTHING to this country, making it impossible for the people that actually need well-fare to receive it. Everyone seems to take advantage of this country, and the terrible string of politicians in the past 25 years has only advanced this cancer. I am a true libertarian. This is my opinion- this country has been saturated with overindulging politicians, hell bent on their own agenda. They need to be eliminated. That is the purpose of the Second Amendment of the U.S. constitution. For the people of the country to keep the ability to protect themselves from their government, and if needed to overthrow this government. The government is NOT the people. Exactly like extremists are not all Muslims. Something needs to be done. I recall the famous quotation from Patrick Henry- "GIVE ME LIBERTY, OR GIVE ME DEATH." This is my struggle. My Jihad.
I would appreciate it if this is put on the site, although it is not a requirement.
Most sincere,
D.B.

I second that. And it is nice to see people like you who are open minded.
"It is the nature of every person to seek happiness. Some people strive to seek material happiness in this world away from religion, thinking that this is the true happiness. But this kind of happiness will be succeeded by pain and sorrow at the Day of Judgment, and its people will know that their striving led them only to misery and not happiness.
While others know that the true way to happiness is to obey God and follow His religion. For them the pleasures and riches of the world are of little consequence. When this happiness penetrates and fills the heart of the believer he does in fact live in this world as if he were in Paradise. Those are the people who find true happiness in this world." islam-guide...com

please with all due respect this statement is untrue the core foundations of your country were built on deceit lies masscars back stabbing stealing rape betrayal the long list goes on and this has always been the way of the white Christain dominate society please take a look at the history of the indigenous peoples of America .
The "liberty" as you state your looking for has never and will not exist but if your looking for true freedom then that only comes with the laws of the Creator the true justice thats found on earth and I hope Godwilling you will breath it because that is the core of the human ideal anything else is an illusion as stated in the Quran and man is very good at fooling himself
Our Jihad is to please Allah who Created us for this purpose
As far as we know America today was built on evil and still remain a nation of evil-livers. Your nation is filled with corruption and your constitution is oppression, but that is the punishment for those who have made up their own limited humanly laws and follow their own and corrupted desires. A nation where the victim and the innocent is the criminal and the criminals and the oppressors are the victims. A nation where the bad is good, and the good is bad. Indeed Allah's punishment and your downfall is eminent for all to see.
"Such is the punishment of this world. And the punishment of the Hereafter is greater, if they only knew.
Indeed, for the righteous with their Lord are the Gardens of Pleasure.
Then will We treat the Muslims like the criminals?
What is the matter with you? How do you judge?
Or do you have a scripture in which you learn
That indeed for you is whatever you choose?
Or do you have oaths binding upon Us, extending until the Day of Resurrection, that indeed for you is whatever you judge?
Ask them which of them, for that claim, is responsible.
Or do they have partners? Then let them bring their partners, if they should be truthful.
The Day the shin will be uncovered and they are invited to prostration but the disbelievers will not be able,
Their eyes humbled, humiliation will cover them. And they used to be invited to prostration while they were sound.
So leave Me, [O MuHammad], with the matter of whoever denies the Qur’ān. We will progressively lead them to punishment from where they do not know.
And I will give them time. Indeed, My plan is firm.
Or do you ask of them a payment, so they are by debt burdened down?
Or have they knowledge of the unseen, so they write it down?
Then be patient for the decision of your Lord, [O MuHammad], and be not like the companion of the fish when he called out while he was distressed.
If not that a favor from his Lord overtook him, he would have been thrown onto the naked shore while he was censured.
And his Lord chose him and made him of the righteous.
And indeed, those who disbelieve would almost make you slip with their eyes when they hear the message, and they say, "Indeed, he is mad."
But it is not except a reminder to the worlds."
(Sarah Al-Qalam 68:33-52)
Fatir 15
O mankind! it is you who stand in need of Allâh, But Allâh is Rich (Free of all needs), Worthy of all praise.
In Islam the government is a reflection of the people so if you have a just compassinate God fearing leader ie Sh Usamah bin Laden HA) the people will be of that nature on the otherhand if you have selfserving cruel arrogant submitting to their vain desires] as a leader then the people will be of that rubbish nature
you must understand your constitution will not save America it is man made law full of faults and is used and abused daily.....So the only way forward for America and the world is to submitt to Allah thats the reality thats the truth thats what as a educated son of Adam who has read the Quran must understand .
