All Arabs are not Muslims, and all Muslims are not Arabs. Arabs are an ethnicity of people who came from the region of and around the Arabian peninsula. Most Arabs are Muslims, but some, for example, in Syria, are Christians. Actually, the countries with the largest Muslim population are not Arabic - Indonesia and Pakistan. However, Muslims must learn to read Arabic in order to read the Qur'an (their holy book), because the religion dictates that Arabic was the language spoken by Muhammad (the religion's founder and prophet).

Islam comes from the same roots as Judeo-Christian religion. According to the story, Abraham (father of the Jews and hence of Jesus) was married to Sarah, but she had produced for him no children. She gave him permission to sleep with their servant girl, Hagar, who got pregnant and gave birth to a son, Ishmael. However, in the meanwhile, Sarah also became pregnant and gave birth to a son, Isaac. Embarassed, Abraham drove Hagar and Ishmael out into the desert and left them there. The Jews trace their lineage through Isaac to Abraham, and Muslims trace theirs through Ishmael. When Muslims make their pilgrimage, called the hajj, part of their practice is to make the same journey that Hagar and Ishmael did when they were sent away.

See "Islam attracts an unfit Stone Age species. Realize your evolutionary duty" at:

To summarize, they are an obsolete species that has to destroy everything built and established by the human race in order to bring us back to their "nasty, brutal, and short" way of life. The Koran is not the problem, it is the kind of people attracted to Islam, which means "submission," so they are also slavish pawns of their sheiks. Third, their minds are slaves to nature and cannot invent ways to make the world better.

Hardly anything at all but I do believe that most of them are normal people who only want to work hard to provide a safe and healthy lifestyle for their families, in much the same way as we do in the so-called civilised West.
They're probably as confused and perplexed as we are by the overall view of things.

I know enough to be able to close with my enemies and destroy their will to fight if need be.
