It took a world-class teleprompter reader, the most intelligent President ever, and the greatest uniter in the history of the universe to make manifest the similarities between the Tea Party and the Occupy Wall Street syndicate. Barack Obama’s teleprompter connected the affiliation of an ever-increasing pack of feral vagabonds and a well-organized and civil political movement with the insight and aplomb of a Greek Sophist: “I understand the frustrations being expressed in those protests. In some ways, they’re not that different from some of the protests that we saw coming from the Tea Party.”

But Obama is not alone with his affection regarding the Occupy Wall Street syndicate and its annihilative swath of destruction of city parks, local businesses, local homeowners, and general civility. Like maggots to rotting flesh, the various cankers of the Democratic Party have scampered to be the first to endorse the Occupy Wall Street syndicate. No organized or unorganized dynamism of unadulterated imbecility and chaos would be legitimate without an endorsement from Nancy Pelosi. Then there are the endorsements of the usual suspects of anarchy, chaos, and American degeneration: American Nazi Party, the Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, and a hodgepodge of Democratic politicians grasping for the opportunity of political expediency at the expense of decency.

Where might this assemblage of intellectually deplete vagrants have procured their foundation and moral and intellectual compass? The Matriarch of Mayhem, the Beelzebub of Communism, the Pedagogue of Obtuseness at Harvard Law, and the Democratic Senate candidate from Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren. Warren claims responsibility for the spawning of Occupy Wall Street: “I created much of the intellectual foundation for what they do. I support what they do.”

The participators in Occupy Wall Street are a formidable lot, as they represent 99% of the 300,000,000 people of these United States, or 297,000,000 to be exact. For an equitable and balanced postulation of what is representative of the Occupy Wall Street syndicate, and by proxy 99% of the United States, and thus representative of the Tea Party per our President, an exact and accurate calculus must be employed.

Since the genetic make-up of Occupy Wall Street is liberal, the employment of the Democrat’s litmus test for determining what represents the make-up of a conservative group is imperative. Example: All Tea Party members are serial racists if one sign supporting racism could found at a rally of thousands; the lack of racial diversity at a Tea Party rally is empirical evidence of institutional racism; and when three members of an audience of 3,500 boo a gay soldier for asking about “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” at a Republican debate, the entire audience of 3,500 are irrefutably anti-gay and anti-military.

Without further ado, I present 15 things I have learned about the Tea Party from Occupy Wall Street:

1. The Tea Party and 99% of America will sell you heroin, crack, cocaine, marijuana, and any other illegal narcotic of your pleasure. 

Channing Kehoe, Occupier, spoke of the drugs, sexual assaults, and rapes among the occupiers in Zuccotti Park: “We’re trying to figure out what to do about the drugs.” A multitasking felon selling drugs and creating mayhem beyond the allowable level of mayhem at Occupy Wall Street was arrested for selling cocaine and punching a couple of women. A tent invader and Occupier, Garfield Leslie, was arrested for trying to sell baggies of cocaine to the occupants of a tent he decided to occupy at Occupy Wall Street. At Occupy Boston, two occupiers were arrested by undercover police for selling them heroin.

An interview of one of the Occupy Wall Street lamsters from the New York Post:

“I got warrants. I’m running from the law,” boasted Dave, 24, a scrawny, unshaven miscreant in filthy clothes from Stamford, Conn. “I’m not even supposed to be here, but it’s as good a spot as any to hide.”

Wanted for burglary, the drug-addled fugitive said some of his hard-partying pals clued him in that the protest was a good place to be fed, get wasted, and crash.

“I’ve been smoking and drinking in here for eight days now,” said Dave, booze on his breath and his eyes bloodshot as he lay sprawled on a tattered sheet of cardboard. “I need to get some methadone. Every day, I wake up, and I’m f–ked up.”

Dave Park from Stamford was arrested Monday by New York City police on charges of allegedly groping a woman at the protests, according to the New York Post.

2. The Tea Party and 99% of America are racist.

The Tea Party’s lack of racial diversity and the perceived element of racism at the Tea Party rallies is empirical evidence all involved are racists. With just a perfunctory observation of video and photos of the illiberal pasty white Occupy Wall Street xenophobes, racism is conclusively rampant within their ranks.

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

4. The Tea Party and 99% of America will shoot a white bitch.

At Occupy Oakland, KGO-TV reporter Amy Hollyfield, white bitch, was threatened by a rare and spontaneous racially diverse pistoleer, with assumed accomplices, who threatened, “We shoot white bitches like you around here.” Reported by various Bay Area news outlets, Occupy Oakland had descended into rat-infested squalor with complaints of vandalism, public urination, sexual harassment, sex in public, and of course the shooting of white bitches.

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

5. The Tea Party and 99% of Americans will smell your girlfriend’s, wife’s, or sister’s feet if the aromatic appendage is exposed, and toast their olfactory exploits with a snifter of urine.

At Occupy Toronto (apparently they are part of the 99% also), a man was arrested for smelling a woman’s feet without invitation. Then, after a cursory groping of the Occupied woman, he invited all to toast his exploits by throwing back a shot of urine.

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

6. The Tea Party and 99% of Americans will rape your wife, sister, girlfriend, or young daughter if forced to share an Occupied tent.

A 19-year-old Occupy Cleveland protester was raped in her tent after being directed by the overseers of Occupy Cleveland to allow cohabitation of her tent with a strange man calling himself “Leland.” Also, a 24-year-old convicted sex offender, and representative of 99% of Americans, was arrested for raping a 14-year-old girl at Occupy Dallas.

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

7. The Tea Party and 99% of Americans will rob you blind if given half a chance.

Something so bizarre it rivals H.G. Wells’ imagination has happened within the confines of the Occupy Wall Street colonization. An unsavory gang of fellow protestors, who are representative of 99% of America, have been stealing cameras, laptop computers, mobile phones, food, and piles of cash. Nan Terrie, 18, kitchen worker/legal-team juggler stated, “Stealing is our biggest problem at the moment. I had my Mac stolen — that was like $5,500. Every night, something else is gone.”

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

8. The Tea Party and 99% of Americans filled local jails during the Tea Party rallies.

Occupy gangsters are being arrested in ever increasing numbers in each city they are menacing as their behavior is increasingly becoming more aggressive, and clashes against local law enforcement have reached riot levels in Oakland.

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

9. The Tea Party and 99% of Americans will poop and urinate on your doorstep, then taunt you as you leave for work.

The arrogant and productive members of society living near Occupy Wall Street, the gainfully employed, homeowners, who eschew the colonizing of public parks, are greeted with urine and feces on their doorsteps each morning, then harangued as they leave for work. Catherine Hughes, conventional human, lives one block from Zuccotti Park: “They are defecating on our doorsteps. A lot of people are very frustrated. A lot of people are concerned about the safety of our kids.” James Fernandez, gainfully employed, stated, “The protesters taunt people who are on their way to work.”

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

10. The Tea Party and 99% of Americans will shoot to kill any government agent who violates their rights.

Copies of an Occupy assassin’s manifesto encouraging occupiers to kill police were distributed to the anarchists at Occupy Phoenix as they colonized Cesar Chavez Park, according to a Maricopa County Sheriff’s Deputy. The assassin’s manifesto encouraged the killing of any government agent who violates their rights for the following breeches: illegal search and seizure, sobriety and border checkpoints, airport security, and various other human rights violations.

And to the northeast, a young female agent of civility occupying Grand Rapids held a sign proclaiming, “The Only Good Cop Is A Dead Cop.”

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

11. The Tea Party and 99% of America will pimp your adolescent daughter out for prostitution.

At Occupy New Hampshire, Justina Jensen, Occupier and pimp, was charged with felony prostitution. Jensen met her promising teenage employee, “Jewel,” wandering the Occupy encampment. Occupier Justina, aka “Remy,” made arrangements with “Mad Mike” via the internets to “come have fun with four beautiful ladies “for $150. Unfortunately, “Mad Mike” was an undercover police officer, “Jewel” is sixteen years old, and Occupier Justina is incarcerated.

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

 12. The Tea Party and 99% of America have created their own 1% within the 99%.

The 1% of the 99% now have their very own Big Bankers controlling the 99% of the 99%’s money. Occupy Wall Street’s Finance Committee, aka Occupy Big Banker, has tyrannical control of $500,000 of the 99% of the 99%’s money, and the cash continues to roll in. But as Big Bankers often do, Occupy Big Banker has an innate reluctance to share the wealth. Tempers are erupting from the 99% of the 99%. The drummers are in a high state of agitation because they can’t get funds from the Occupy Big Bank to replace their drums that were stolen by the other 99% of the 99%. The drummers are threatening to splinter off into a yet calculated percent of the 99%. Bryan Smith, Occupier, had not so kind words for the Occupy Big Bank: “F–k finance. I hope Mayor Bloomberg gets an injunction and demands to see the movement’s books. We need to know how much money we really have and where it’s going. The other day, I took in $2,000. I kept $650 for my group, and gave the rest to Finance. Then I went to them with a request — so many people need things, and they should not be going without basic comfort items — and I was told to fill out paperwork. Paperwork! Are they the government now?”

13. The Jesus of the Tea Party and 99% of Americans would support the Occupy Wall Street occupation.

“What would Jesus think of Occupy Wall Street?” Lisa Miller of the Washington Post asked herself. “Jesus would have sympathy, I think, with the campers’ efforts to keep a small space sanitary in the absence of modern plumbing. Thus, he might have sympathy for the various causes espoused by the campers (end hydrofracking, tax the rich, support the unions, cap executive pay).”

Marisa Egerstrom, a graduate student at Harvard University, stated that if the Jesus of history could wander the precincts held by the occupiers and witnessed the rapes, smelling of feet, stealing, child prostitution, money changers, drug dealing, killing of police, pooping and urinating on doorsteps, booing of the employed, racism, and anti-Semitism, “He’d see his people. I think he would be pretty pleased.”

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama

14. The Tea Party and 99% of Americans want the Jews run out of America.

Patricia McAllister, anti-Semite and Occupier, an employee of the Los Angeles Unified School District, stated, “I think that the Zionist Jews, who are running these big banks and our Federal Reserve, which is not run by the federal government . . . they need to be run out of this country.”

An Occupier who represents 99% of America chanted, “Jews control Wall Street,” while holding a sign that read, “Hitler’s Bankers – Wall St.” One Jewish passerby sporting a yarmulke was shouted at, “You’re a bum, Jew. Jewish money controls American politics. Gaza Supports The Occupation of Wall Street.”

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

15. The Tea Party and 99% of Americans are infected with STDs.

Nearby health clinics have standing room only with protesters being tested for STDs and HIV after copious sexual congress with anything willing, and according to arrest records, anything unwilling, to partake in the swapping of viruses and various bacteria. Occupiers manning the medical tent doled out $15 to $20 so those challenged with infected plumbing could be treated at nearby clinics for low income chaste challenged patrons.

This is supported by the American Nazi Party, Communist Party U.S.A., the Democratic Party, and Barack Obama.

I cannot speak with experience as one of the 99%, as I am of the 1% elitist these 99% so vehemently want to destroy. I am a member of the 1% by virtue of the defining criteria of what constitutes a member of the 99%: I unfortunately missed the fortuitous opportunity of merchandising heroin, crack, cocaine, marijuana, and various other felonious pharmaceuticals; I am pretty certain I am not a racist; to the best of my recollection, have never, nor do I intend to shoot a white bitch; I have never partaken in the sniffing of a strange or known woman’s feet for gratification, and have certainly never toasted such an adventure with a glass of urine; I generally avoid raping; I can’t recollect ever robbing anyone; I have never had the pleasure of occupying a jail; if at all possible, I generally try to abstain from pooping on strangers’ doorsteps; I am not in a habit of jeering the employed as they trek to work; the thought of shooting a police officer when asked to show my driver’s license and insurance at a traffic stop has never really crossed my mind; I have never considered pimping adolescent girls as a vocation; I’ve never really put much thought into running all the Jews out of America; I generally do not become infected with STDs from wanton sex with unproductive strangers as a form of recreation; and I am pretty certain that the Jesus of the Bible would not approve of the aforementioned human retrogression.

I am also disqualified from the 99% club due to the severity of my handicap of believing that if someone has more than me, if I want what they have, I should work harder and smarter to achieve it. But these Occupiers would rather expend their energy with gnashing their teeth and wringing their hands about their station in life, and devising communistic methods of taking from those who have what they are either too lazy or incapable of accomplishing on their own.

Based on factual and anecdotal evidence, Barack Obama is categorically and pathologically incapable of telling the truth. If one has followed every single updated and contradictory factual release by the Obama administration regarding the assassination of bin Laden, and if one has resisted gnawing at the fasteners of his restraints after being subjected to this mythological and cuckoo asylum-inducing roller coaster ride of prevarication, his cerebral constitution is better than most.

But finally, the Obama administration has presented the facts of that fateful evening in a semi-coherent and plausible sequence of events that would be perfectly acceptable in a parallel universe where fantasy will always trump the phenomena of reality.

Ensuing are 50 facts presented by the Obama administration explaining what exactly happened during the raid. Barack Obama gets the ball rolling by rushing to “spike the football” by fantastically claiming in his news conference that after a firefight, they killed Osama bin Laden and then took custody of his body, resulting in his capture and death.

The facts:

1. The Navy SEALs were engaged in a firefight during most of the 40-minute operation.
2. We expected a great deal of resistance and were met with a great deal of resistance. There were many other people who were armed in the compound.
3. There was a firefight.
4. There was not a firefight.
5. For most of the period there, there was a firefight.
6. Only one of five people killed was carrying a weapon.
7. Osama bin Laden was resisting.
8. Osama bin Laden was holding a gun.
9. Osama bin Laden was firing at U.S. forces.
10. Osama bin Laden was in a room with an AK-47 and a Makarov pistol.
11. Osama bin Laden was unarmed.
12. Osama bin Laden appeared to be reaching for a weapon.
13. Later, an AK-47 and Makarov pistol were found in the room.
14. Osama bin Laden acted scared and completely confused.
15. Osama bin Laden turned and retreated into the room before being shot twice in the eye and chest (from behind apparently).
16. He was retreating, a move that is regarded as resistance.
17. You don’t know why he’s retreating[sic].
18. Osama bin Laden used his wife as a shield by shoving her at a Navy SEAL.
19. He did not use his wife as a shield.
20. His wife was killed.
21. His wife was not killed.
22. His wife was shot in the leg, but another woman was killed.
23. But it wasn’t clear if either were trying to shield bin Laden.
24. Osama bin Laden’s son was killed.
25. Osama bin Laden’s other son was killed instead–maybe or maybe not Hamza.
26. They would have captured bin Laden if he had been naked.
27. During the raid, we lost one helicopter due to mechanical failure.
28. We didn’t say it was mechanical.
29. The air temperature was too hot so the helicopter crashed.
30. It just did a hard landing.
31. It clipped a wall with the tail rotor.
32. There were no phone or internet lines running from the house, cut off from the technological world.
33. There was a satellite dish.
34. Videos shows Osama bin Laden watching satellite television.
35. There was a photo of a digital satellite decoder.
36. Osama bin Laden lived in a well-guarded mansion in a secure neighborhood.
37. Osama bin Laden lived in a massive mansion worth $1 million.
38. Osama bin Laden lived in an affluent area outside Islamabad, Pakistan.
39. Osama bin Laden lived in a sophisticated $1 million hideaway.
40. Photos show that the compound was in such a state of squalor.
41. Photos show the baroque mansion was infested with rubbish, dirt, and trash.
42. Photos show the paint peeling off the walls.
43. John Brennan, Obama’s counter-terrorism czar, said, ”We were able to monitor in a real-time basis the progress of the operation from its commencement to its time on target to the extraction of the remains and to then the egress off of the target.”
44. There is an official White House picture released of Clinton holding her hand over her mouth in the go-to-move from any horror movie when encountering the horror. “Those were 38 of the most intense minutes,” Clinton stated.
45. Clinton said, “I have no idea what any of us were looking at that particular millisecond when the picture was taken.”
46. Speaking on condition of anonymity, a White House official stated that at the very moment that Clinton’s hand shot to her mouth, she let out a shriek as Obama’s deficit numbers inadvertently flashed across the screen.
47. Clinton said later about the horror picture, “I am somewhat sheepishly concerned that it was my preventing one of my early spring allergic coughs. So it may have no great meaning whatsoever.”
48. Unfortunately, CIA Director Leon Panetta stated, “Once those teams went into the compound, I can tell you that there was a time period of almost 20 or 25 minutes that we really didn’t know just exactly what was going on.”
49. CIA Director, Leon Panetta, said, “The world needed proof and the photo would be released.”
50. Obama said, “There’s no doubt we killed Osama bin Laden. There was no need to release the photographs or gloat. There’s no need to spike the football.”

These 50 contradictory, antithetical, and sophomorically paradoxical statements are as close as Barack Obama and his administration will tempt reality or the truth, but the statements are at least more forthright than any other aspect of Obama’s life.

Regarding our military and those Navy SEALs who took out bin Laden, God bless them all. They did what they are trained to do. And God bless the CIA operatives that procured the intelligence that led to Osama bin Laden in Pakistan, and Obama to “spike the football daily for a week.” And protect these very CIA operatives from Barack Obama’s Attorney General, Eric Holder, for attempting to prosecute them. I almost agree fully with John Kerry regarding the killing of Osama bin Laden: “I think those SEALs did exactly what they should have done. And we need to shut up and move on about, you know, the realities of what happened in that building.” The only problem is the Obama administration has changed the “realities of what happened in that building” daily. Obama does not owe anyone an immediate explanation regarding the raid, nor even an acknowledgement of it in the immediate aftermath, but if he is going to explain it, he should tell the truth and not be so obvious about “spiking the football.”

Obama sent this country’s most elite fighting team, SEAL Team Six, to assassinate bin Laden. Illegally. A plethora of national and international laws were broken. I am perfectly fine with that. I applaud him for that. Bush ordered the CIA to obtain information in the aftermath of 9/11 to protect this country from another attack by using interrogation tactics that were effective, which prevented another attack in Los Angeles, and led to the eventual whereabouts of Osama bin Laden. I am perfectly fine with that. Barack Obama and Eric Holder are pursuing the prosecution of the CIA operatives responsible for that information. I am not fine with that, and the United States of America should not be fine with that either.

.

The United States has spent trillions of dollars fighting it, expending thousands of lives, yet has never had a strategery to defeat it, eradicate it, or cause it to surrender. Why? Because it does not exist. Terrorism, or that ridiculous appellation assigned to it by the intellectually clumsy Obama administration, man-made disaster, or whatever one chooses to call it, does not exist, has never existed, and will never exist as an entity. This point I have expounded upon myriad times: terrorism is a tactic, not an enemy. Bombing is a tactic, not an enemy. Kamikaze pilots were tactics, not enemies. Suicide bombing is a tactic, not an enemy.

Allen West uses a World War II analogy to drive home the point. But to add to his point–which ensues in this discourse–using the logic of George Bush, and the further perverted logic of Barack Obama, if either had been president on December 7, 1942, after the Japanese bombed our naval fleet at Pearl Harbor, a “war on bombings” would have been the political moniker of the era, and the tactics employed against the “war on bombings” would have guaranteed that the United States and its European allies would have either been defeated, or still, to this day, be fighting a war that cannot be won because the enemy was never engaged. Just as the United States has never engaged the enemy that attacked the World Trade Centers on September 11, 2001.

Say it out loud, whisper it, deny it, refuse to acknowledge it, however one chooses to address it or not address it, we are engaged in a religious war. A war of ideologies. A war against a religion. A war with the Muslim faith. Not all Muslims, but enough to cost the world trillions of dollars per year, and thousands of lives per year. It is that simple. The Muslim attacks against non-Muslim individuals, cultures, and countries around the world will never be defeated by focusing on their tactics.

The intellectually comatose are much too quick to attribute all “terrorist” attacks and world Muslim related violence to a small fringe of the Muslim faith, Al-Qaeda, Taliban, etc. But what has never been addressed honestly is the worldwide brutal rioting, Christian church burning, killings, burning of Christians, and multiple issued fatwas by Muslims over a few cartoons in the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten on September 30, 2005, satirizing the prophet Muhammad. This worldwide pandemonium was not the result of Al-Qaeda, the Taliban, et alia, but of the plebeian masses of Islam, who when compelled by Islam will react violently against non-Muslims.

Is this religious war against non-Muslims new? Is it a 20th and 21st century phenomenon? I will first let Thomas Jefferson and John Adams explain why this is not true, how to defeat it, then let Allen West explain why we will never defeat “terrorism”:

Thomas Jefferson and Benjamin Franklin attempted to negotiate a treaty with the Muslims of Tripoli to stop their capturing of American trade ships and holding them for ransom–Somalia, a Muslim state, is replicating this history to perfection, but this being the benign, soft, and politically correct world in which we live, sans Muslim states, we will not address Somalia, only their tactics. After asking Sidi Haji Abdrahaman why they were capturing American ships and holding them for ransom without being provoked by the United States, Jefferson and Franklin epitomized the world as it relates to Muslims in the 18th century, and very poignantly how it relates to the world in the 21st century:

It was written in their Quran that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet (Muhammad) were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful (Muslims) to plunder and enslave; and that every Muslim who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to paradise.

When Jefferson became president in 1801, within 5 years, we went to war against Tripoli, blockaded their ports of entry, seized all goods, then charged ashore and captured Tripoli. Thus, the Marine hymn with the words “from the shores of Tripoli.” Jefferson did not fight a war on terrorism, he did not fight a war against pirating, he fought a war against a Muslim nation that was attacking our ships. A treaty was signed, and peace reigned upon the region–for a few years. Then Algeria thought they could shake down President James Madison for tributes in Al Sharpton fashion, but sadly were met with the wrath of the United States Navy, and peace quickly ensued, until….

One word of caution first: Allen West is black, intelligent, knowledgeable, completely understands how to eradicate Islam’s war against the non-Muslim world, and writes his own material from his knowledge base, and does not rely on a teleprompter. Any comparison and contrast between Obama and West is the reader’s discretion.

So with no further ado, Allen West:

With the way our politicians have treated immigration and national security, which are not mutually exclusive, you would be an idiot to think it could not happen.

If you have had a caviler attitude about whether or not this could happen read the results of this poll.

Homicide Bombings Against Civilians

Wednesday, May 23, 2007

Fox News

WASHINGTON — One out of four young U.S. Muslims believe homicide bombings against civilians are OK to “defend Islam,” according to a new poll.

The poll by the Pew Research Center also finds some Muslim Americans seem to be separating from mainstream America in their attitudes toward the War on Terror and U.S.

Mideast policy.

The study found that among the nation’s younger Muslims, 26 percent say homicide bombings can at least rarely be justified “in order to defend Islam from its enemies.”

“It is a hair-raising number,” said Radwan Masmoudi, president of the Washington-based Center for the Study of Islam and Democracy, which promotes the compatibility of Islam with democracy.

The poll briefly describes the rationales for and against “suicide bombing and other forms of violence against civilian targets” and then asks, “Do you personally feel that this kind of violence is often justified to defend Islam, sometimes justified, rarely justified, or never justified?”

Younger U.S. Muslims under the age of 30 are much more willing to accept homicide bombing in the defense of Islam than are their older counterparts, the study found. While 69 percent of Muslims under 30 say homicide bombings are never justified, 2 percent say they’re often justified, 13 percent say bombings are sometimes justified and 11 percent say they are rarely justified. Only 9 percent of older U.S. Muslims said homicide attacks are at least rarely justified.

In addition to young Muslims’ attitudes towards homicide bombings, the study found that only 40 percent of U.S. Muslims believe that Arabs carried out the Sept. 11 attacks. Another 28 percent said they don’t believe it.

Since the Sept. 11 attacks, 53 percent said it’s been more difficult to be Muslim in America.

The Pew poll also found that almost half of the nation’s Muslims are more likely to identify themselves as Muslims first and then Americans, with 47 percent placing religious affiliation above nationality.

Three out of four people surveyed said the decision to go to war in Iraq was wrong, and 48 percent said using force in Afghanistan was wrong. Five percent of those surveyed had a “very favorable” or “somewhat favorable” view of Al Qaeda, while 58 percent had a “very unfavorable” opinion of the terror group.

But the study also found that most of the nation’s Muslim community is “largely assimilated, happy with their lives, and moderate with respect to many of the issues that have divided Muslims and Westerners around the world.”

The poll also found that U.S. Muslims reject Islamic extremism by larger margins than do Muslim minorities in Western European countries.

In Pew surveys last year, support in some Muslim countries exceeded 50 percent, while it was considered justifiable by about one in four Muslims in Britain and Spain, and one in three in France.

“We have crazies just like other faiths have them,” said Eide Alawan, who directs interfaith outreach at the Islamic Center of America in Dearborn, Mich., one of the nation’s largest mosques. He said killing innocent people contradicts Islam.

The survey included more than 1,000 of the nation’s estimated 2.35 million Muslims and was conducted in English and several foreign languages.

Andrew Kohut, Pew director, said in an interview that support for the attacks represented “one of the few trouble spots” in the survey.
