Is the recent Islamist vow to "destroy the White House" and take "Jerusalem" for Islam to be taken seriously?

Question

CAIRO, Egypt - Al-Qaida in Iraq's purported leader vowed on Friday that his fighters would never rest until they reach Jerusalem and blow up the White House. http://www.wzzm13.com/news/news_article.aspx?storyid=64787

Boy these people have 'purpose' dont they. Im so impressed with there reason for living and striving. How sexy it is to have an enemy. In fact, what could be more seductive to a younger man, who is denied sexual access (Islamic culture) otherwise and is just brimming with pent-up testosterone punped rage for the 'enemy' hes been told to hate since birth. Ah yes, what a great religion that one is...so neat.

Answer 1

Islam is the evil. People are not. Islam misleads the people. Thats why people who really follow Islam do misleading acts.

"I've been made victorious through terror." - Prophet Muhammad - the founder of Islam.

Answer 2

Absolutely....anyone who doesn't take these threats seriously is a fool. Since the day Mohammed decided he was allah's messenger, the only goal of Islam has been total world domination.

Just remember, the first war between the United States and Islamic terrorists occurred during Thomas Jefferson's administration. It's from there that the phrase 'to the shores of Tripoli' originated in the Marine Corps Hymn.

Also, the Jews have been at odds with Islam's patriarch (Ishmael) and descendents for 3500 years.

NO...to dismiss these threats is tantamount to suicide.

Answer 3

If every crackpot were to be taken seriously we would all be in jail for our comments made at a party,telling a joke, or an exclamation at a bad call in a baseball game.
I take the threats of an Islamic Fundamentalist about as seriously as I believe that our Presudent is after Peace and Democracy in an Islamic Nation.
Visions of grandeur muddied with the realities of a failed attempt at restoreing a fathers reputation is not my idea of correct political manuveurs.

Answer 4

Ask people who worked in the World Trade Center if Al Qaida is to be taken seriously.

Answer 5

Ummmm, look. They have been fighting us for decades. They never liked the U.S., but it was really the Europeans who split up the Ottaman Empire the wrong way, and that's why there are so many conflicts. Also, they hate Jerusalem because they hate Jews even more than they hate Christians.

P.S. They can't win.

Answer 6

FLAT OUT,YES!
People do not take anything for granted.The oceans cannot protect us any longer.
If we leave that desert without finishing what we started,be prepared to defend your country with force against outside sources.I know what I will do.I still hold the traditional values and ideas that made this country what is.

What would you do?
Stand and fight,or cower down?

Answer 7

They will NEVER take Jerusalem, That city belongs to the Jews & not Islamic people nor arabs. In the bible it says in the last days God will make Jerusalem a cup of trembling, to ALL OF THEM ROUND & ABOUT JERUSALEM, & that is exactly what it is today.

Answer 8

Ahh Yes, so true,
And I am afraid they will eventually succeed as we have no stomach for war, and are bent towards isolationism, especially since now the dems will be in charge, thinking that we can negotiate with them, they do not understand that they will not negotiate unless it is to their advantage to buy time.

The only thing they will accept from us is our conversion to Islam or our destruction

Answer 9

Take it seriously. There stated goal is to push Israel into the Sea, and to destroy all of Western Civilization. They are not gonna make nice just because the Demondcraps won.

Answer 10

They feel the need to fight against something.

Too bad we're the target.
