Controlled opposition means, you don't know who the players are, even with a program.  It not only confuses the opposition, it confuses the public to the point that democracy becomes pointless.  So who sent this guy?  Or did he just send himself?  We will never know.  Facts only, exclude interpretation, and without interpretation, voting is pointless.

Just read a FOX News article where even they say Islam can be used to justify the terrorism and just as easily it can be used to condemn it, and that it has more to do with interpretations rather than the text itself.

Pr, when even FOX News is more progressive thinking than you, you know you are swimming way out in the deep end.

When the Quranic text says "kill them wherever you find them" it means just that.

I cannot interpret this as "hug them wherever you find them"

Maybe Fox News can do it in the name of political correctness.
But Fox news is no Islamic scholars.

As an exercise, would you care to "interpret" these verses?

BTW, there are the tafsirs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tafsir) which meant to explain precisely the meaning of each verse.
So there cannot be any ambiguity.  Then there is the Sharia Laws to support it.



“We will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieve for what they have associated with Allah of which He had not sent down authority. And their refuge will be the Fire, and wretched is the residence of the wrongdoers.” (Qur’an 3:151)

“When your Lord inspired to the angels, ‘I am with you, so strengthen those who have believed. I will cast terror into the hearts of those who disbelieved, so strike upon the necks and strike from them every fingertip.'” (Qur’an 8:12)

“And prepare against them whatever you are able of power and of steeds of war by which you may terrify the enemy of Allah and your enemy and others besides them whom you do not know, whom Allah knows. And whatever you spend in the cause of Allah will be fully repaid to you, and you will not be wronged.” (Qur’an 8:60)

And there is this: Quran 33:36

It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should [thereafter] have any choice about their affair. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error.

The problem isn't a scripture, or an interpretation of a scripture.  It that people are violent predators.  There needs to be more predation, more violence, not less ;-)

“I have been ordered (by Allah) to fight against the people until they testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad is Allah’s Apostle, and offer the prayers perfectly and give the obligatory charity, so if they perform that, then they save their lives and property from me except for Islamic laws and then their reckoning (accounts) will be done by Allah. (Bukhari 1.2.24)

If all religions are the same then why no other religions engage in global terrorism with the same intensity?

Islam claims that it is consistent, that no Hadith supersedes any Surah ... that is bullshit.  Umar the Caliph, created Islam as we know it.  He is coming for you too.  Allah Akbar!

Constantine created Christianity as we know it.  They also claim to be consistent ... that is bullshit.  Constantine is coming for you too.  Ave Caesar!

Predict the future much?  All species eventually terminate.

Yes, I am being rhetorical, I wouldn't kill a cockroach (sometimes).  Most of us get food indirectly ... we aren't farmers/ranchers.  Most of our killing is indirect too ... plausible deniability.  The German people were guilty, not just the Nazis.

I never met a cockroach I didn't try to kill.  Fortunately, that was 40 years ago in cheap crowded apartments and I do not have that problem now.

My point was that barriers cannot prevent all attacks.  Where they aren't, they invite attacks.  And most places that are attacked have none.

We can protect some important places with barriers.  But there is always "someplace else".

They may exist, but again... It's like assuming the one crazy homeless guy who claims to have been abducted by aliens and wears tin foil to protect himself from the government mind rays is representative of men or conservatives.

He only looks for the most crazy examples he can find, gets confirmation bias because crazy is what people bother to record and write about (how many news stories are about a regular guy going to work, coming home, watching a movie and going to sleep?), and then acts like these extreme outliers are representative of everyone in whatever group he wants to put them in.

Consistently coincidently, those groups always are what ever the en vogue group to hate or fear is. He never seems to hold the same standard to anyone else.

I'm sure that's pure coincidence though...

Teddy appointed Taft, thinking he was a Progressive.  Taft betrayed Teddy.  Teddy split the ticket in 1912 and that let Wilson win.  So the voters participate, but they are just bit players.

As far as Nixon vs McGovern ... McGovern both self inflicted (Eagleton) and was inflicted (he was a war hero who was painted as a hippie).  Nixon stole the 1972 election, had help from the usual suspects, but then got too cocky.
