In the news, a new Osama bin Laden videotape says there will be no war in Iraq if Americans simply convert to Islam! He says this will show the U.S. leaders that the people have no faith in democracy any more, and choose Islam instead. There is a belief in the Middle East that Islam is a "third way" better than democracy or Communism or any of the big political systems you care to name. Of course, the liberals who are most against the occupation of Iraq would have to give up their WEED, their FREE LOVE and much else if they convert to Islam, so I don't know if the American intelligentsia will go for that!

I joke that I live the ultimate ANTI-Muslim lifestyle. I eat canned HAM (which is low in fat). In 2004 I attended an art class for REPRESENTATIONAL ART where we draw beings with souls (a no-no in Islam). At said art class I was allowed, nay, *encouraged* to OGLE NAKED WOMEN WHO ARE NOT MY WIVES (the models) to get their forms exactly right. This adult-education opportunity was run by the city's *school boards*, so an extremist Muslim might describe it as, "The teachers of our kids also organize evenings where women deport themselves as shameless whores for the infidel idolators!"
Then after the shameless whoring and idolatry, I would regularly go to a karaoke bar where ALCOHOL is served (though I don't drink myself) and sing amusing songs like "Jump, Jive and Wail" whereas the Muslim can only wail! I have no way to half-capitalize "singing songs" but some Muslims oppose even singing and music, unless it be the intonation of the Qur'an.

My singing performances are polished and this amuses some of the women some of the time but, sadly, no FREE LOVE for me yet...
Osama wants me to give all that up and live a colorless life. So, no thanks, Osama.

Hi, Pierre. It's probably true there won't be war if Americans convert to Islam. We can also avoid war by becoming dhimmis, second-class citizens who pay jezreel taxes and who forfeit most of their rights. I don't think most Americans will buy this deal.
It is interesting that Osama opposes democracy. Apparently he recognizes that given rule by the people, the majority won't adopt the unjust laws of the Quran, such as cutting off the hands of thieves.
Why should we do what Osama says? We shouldn't and we are not. We are hunting down his fanatical death cult in Iraq and in Afghanistan, bringing his war back to its place of origin. As Gen. Petraeus testified last week to Congress, we are making great strides in supporting Iraqi democracy over the dictatorial theocracy advocated by Osama.
Cheers,
Bruce

We SHOULDN'T do what Osama says. The guy is a LIAR and a COWARD!!!
Why else would he sacrifice the lives of thousands of his so-called followers in his maniacal pursuit of world domination? Wasn't the last guy who did this called Hitler? He can't take a bullet himself...(a real shame, by the way!) He's got to lie to all these poor kids and say "Listen, if you blow yourself and half the market to bits you'll go to Heaven". And he's smooth....but then, so is Satan.
Hmmm....O-SATAN bin Laden...yeah, I'll keep the political system that my forefathers risked everything to forge. And I'll keep my religion, which also allows me freedom of thought, choice and action. (Plus, I get to drive a car! WOOHOO!)
Next?

No matter what comes my way when it comes to being forced into a religion (possibly) I would never ever convert to what someone else wanted.
So therefore we shouldn't do what Osama says!
Sorry to say but it's plain and simple that he is an idiot.

I might have missed something, but what is your question?
Oh, I see now. No, we shouldn't do what Osama said. Is that what you were looking for?
