At this point I think WW III is inevitable. Just a matter of time.
Russia and maybe even China may end up being allies.-
I am not sure China really cares about this because they don't seem to
have a muslim problem. They have sense enough not to have "made in
China" bomb fragments in the rubble.
The idea that we would partner up with the russians to kill several
million muslims is not totally off the wall tho. They have far worse
islamic terrorism problems than we do and it is right on their
borders, not across an ocean.
I doubt it would actually accomplish much tho.
That is because they have pretty much banned Islam in China.

Good grief...you righties really truly have your heads up your asses
when it comes to knowledge of the world and the way it is. If there is
an antidote for Fox News and crazy rightwingedness, you ought to take it
three times a day.
The PRC has *not* banned Islam. There are millions of Muslims in China,
there are Muslim schools, festivals, cultural activities, architectural,
ways to practice Muslim dietary laws.
The site RGrew176 cited is a right-wing, bat**** crazy christian site
run by a convert.
Wow, apparently you didn't bother to read the article.
Harry admires the Chinese style commitment to the free exercise of
religion.
Essentially the policy is "It is OK as long as nobody ever sees it or
hears about it".
If it ever inconveniences the government in any way it is stamped out.
Personally I don't care either way. This is China and the chinese have
the right to run their country as they wish. It is really none of our
business as long as they don't bother us with it. We certainly do not
want them telling us how our government should work.
I am not even that upset that they are building islands in the South
China Sea.
These are largely uninhabited spits of volcanic rock that everyone
claimed but nobody actually wanted to do anything with. We should be
able to negotiate some kind of settlement here without shooting
anyone.
That's nice.
Can or will you dispute the article? Honestly, I don't think you can, but it was interesting reading your knee-jerk reaction to it.
I don't think it was a knee jerk at all. I believe most people
understand the chinese tolerate religion as long as it doesn't
threaten their idea of the general order or challenge the central
government.
Greg, I meant that comment for Harry. I hit the wrog comment to respond to by accident
