1. How about adding Free Republic to that list

Some of the comments about Islam on that site are just plain disgusting


"Radical Islam is an insane murder cult; moderate Islam is its Trojan Horse in the West"

"Death to Islam. Death to Allah - Piss Be Upon Him"

However I don't have many nice words to say to Cair either.

‘Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Qur'an should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth’:Omar Ahmed, Chairman of the Board of CAIR (Council of American Islamic Relations), San Ramon Valley Herald, July 1998

2. Do you have any websites that you prefer?

The CAIR site seems to have a lot of info. Esp. on violence against Muslims - most of which is not being reported. I don't know if that is so people are not inspired to copy-cat or what the reasoning is. It does not seem to be reported outside of the local area.


Here are a couple of other sites:

It occurred to me looking at these sites- that we are not getting the Muslim POV anywhere - unless you go looking for it. We hear a lot about the Muslim POV according to Daniel Pipes and other similar people.

If anything - religious people who advocate hate against people in other religions just give all religion (esp. their own) a bad name, IMO.
