Why nobody ever complained about the Muslims before 1989?
I remember that, when there was the "Red threat" of Soviet Union to worry about, nobody ever complained about Islam and the Muslims.
After the "Red threat" of the Soviet Union was gone, all of a sudden a "new threat" appears: the "Islamic threat".
How convenient for those who need an "enemy", a "external threat" to advance their agendas...
Nobody has EVER said anything bad about Islam in the Western media until the Iranian revolution in 1979. And even after that, there was no hysteria about "Islamic terrorism". That hysteria ONLY started after the end of the Soviet Union, when the Western elites were in need for a new "enemy" to substitute the role of the "Red threat" in their propaganda machine.
Wake up!
After the end of the Soviet Union, the making of a "new enemy" was necessary to keep the military-industrial complex running, and to keep the same scare tactics.
This is the real origin of the "Islamic threat"!

The Islamic threat has always been there in fact its millenia old. The only difference being is that "multiculturism" has increased muslim migration to the West allowing problems to ferment.

Study a little history. The US has been battling Fanatical Islam since the US has been a country. Where do you think the words in the Marine hyme come from... "from the shores of Tripoli"? Remember Lebanon in 1983? Remember the Ottoman Empire from WWI?

Islam has been considered a threat to Western ideologies and society since at least the Crusades. Islamic Threat has always been there, it is just that it wasn't the biggest threat to deal with. Remember, there were terrorist organisation when the USSR was still kicking, the USA funded them.
You sure? I disagree, the same ideologies from both sides back then are still prominent today. Christians and Muslims were at war, damn, even this "War onTerror" can be considered a Crusade, a war between fundamentally Christian Nations and Muslim nations. Bush said it himself.

Crusades? Com'on, we are having a serious debate here. Anything that happened more than 300 years ago has no relevance at all.
Agreed
And during the past 300 years, Islam was never considered a "threat", until very recently, until the last 30 years or so, and more specifically, after 1990, when the Soviet Union collapsed.
By the way, one of the first "Islamic terrorism organization" was the HAMAS, that was created in Palestine as MOSSAD operation. There is plenty of proof that Mossad created Hamas as a religious organization to fight the secular organizations like Fatah, and split the Palestinians.
Also, the CIA created the Taliban to fight the Soviets, and also created Al-Qaeda.

Wow, I don't know what to say really... And I get tired of these threads. Islam IS a threat. Maybe the main reason why no one 'had a problem' with Muslims prior to 1989 is because they weren't a threat at the time? Remember, the Communists weren't always a threat either, before they became one.
Ever have a good friend turn into a foe? I guess that too is some idiotic conspiracy. Get over it, we live in a world with people who hate each other.
What's that? Oh no! Say it isn't so! Muslims on a raping spree in Oslo Norway? Well, it is so. My sister is one of these women who were raped!
I'm Norwegian (raised in the U.S., living in Norway now) and I can tell you this:
The majority of inmates in our liberal prison system is either from Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, +++. The majority of these people are MUSLIM. I know of several cases in my small town where women were FORCEFULLY held back so they could make sure they had the right number because a Muslim wanted their phone number.
A thirteen year old kid was BEATEN by a Muslim a couple of years ago who was in his late 40's! We have gangs of Somali Muslims in Oslo openly selling drugs to kids! I can go on and on and on but I digress. Norway was safe, we had no major crime problems before we opened our doors to massive immigration. Literally, you could leave your home unlocked while you went on vacation only to come back and find everything in one piece.
Now? Gangs of Muslim youths are roaming our streets at night with pipes, knives, baseball bats and other things making sure we adhere to their 'morals'. Anyone they don't like, they attack. Like my friend and his girlfriend who were standing outside one night taking a smoke as a group of five six M.E. people ganged up on them. My friends were in the hospital for a WEEK.
Then an American buddy of mine was ATTACKED AT KNIFE POINT by two Muslim Africans. Then another friend of mine had five M.E. guys come to his DOOR at 3AM wanting to kick his ass because he didn't say "hi" to them at the store FOUR years ago! They stood out there with bats ready to bash his skull in!
Then me, who was at a party a few years ago talking American with a couple of buddies sharing some jokes while behind us we heard some idiot say, "How did you like the gift we gave you?". Looking at him confused expecting him to make some sort of joke said, "You know, 9/11...".
He was one of the "tolerant Norwegian Muslims". Come to find out, a week later he beat the living CRAP out of his Norwegian girlfriend because she left him. His reason? "No Norwegian dog will leave me!".
Anyone who claims Islam isn't a problem in Europe and the West are blind idiots who don't dare go outside of their politically correct la-la land because it's scary. So take your own advice and "wake up"!edit on 31-3-2012 by Auricom because: (no reason given)
