THE FORCED SLAVERY OF AFRICAN CONTIENT?
THE COLONIZATION OF AFRICA, ASIA and the MIDDLE EAST?
africanhistory.about.com
Black Africans were transported to the Islamic empire across the Sahara to Morocco and Tunisia from West Africa, from Chad to Libya, along the Nile from East Africa, and up the coast of East Africa to the Persian Gulf. This trade had been well entrenched for over 600 years before Europeans arrived, and had driven the rapid expansion of Islam across North Africa.

What the people of the West want, I mean those with a bit of common sense, is to maintain our way of life.

simply put, there's too much negative, not enough positive. when the president of a muslim nation calls for the destruction of another nation, and the rest of the muslim world doesn't IMMEDIATELY condemn his words, the image the religion gets is not a positive one.

The foriegners, whom we have so generously accepted into our countries, are fleeing from their own homelands, which they have pretty much turned into rotting cesspools. We do not want that to happen in our societies; at least anyone who is not a communist or socialst (who always strive to defend the 'poor, downtrodden' immigrant; who in turn is laughing behind their benefactors backs).

Remember, without any foreigners, no country in the West would be as rich and wealthy as they currently are.. Who would do the dirty jobs no one else wants?
Maybe it would have been best to stay within your borders then for the past millenia's, instead of dividing and conquering the rest of the world and eventually having foreigners in the West through those actions, wheter it be for slaves or the West encouraging to go there.

Originally posted by AceOfBaseThe poor and the desperate would do those jobs if it weren't for the immigrants, as long as they eliminate or severely reduce welfare.
That's the way it used to work.

This is not true, due to the fact that in America, you sink or swim. A person can only recieve social aid for so long, before it is turned off. Same goes for unemployment benefits.
If you want to eat in America, you work. If you are too lazy too work, then you either live in your mommies basement till you're 40, or you end up living in your 1973 Ford Maverick.

Well, for our Dearest Member skippytjc, everything Today is JIHAD.
I hope you known the Meaning of the word Jihad, my Dear Skippy, because it has a Whole Different Meaning then you and the rest of the Islamo-Haters are spreading today. Every Muslim does his own personal "Jihad" everyday. Jihad is a Struggle, mostly a struggle within yourself, a struggle to make yourself better everyday.
Well in some aspect, these Youths are doing a sort of Jihad - but not that cant that you are trying really hard to show to the members of this Board.
I wonder what would you do today, if you lived in France...

It seems that so much is supposed to be ignored in order to make some happy. Political correctness really runs amuk. Although many around here will claim that it is "Christianity" that is causing so many woes in the world because of American interference (while, in other discussions, the same people will deny that the U.S. was supposed to be a Christian nation)

The United States is not a Christian nation, but that doesn't mean there isn't a significant number of people here that would like to change that.

It boils down to this: We let immigrants move into our cities to find work, and to better their fortunes in life. We give them residential visas, and eventually in some cases, citizenship. All this, with no strings attached, except a pledge of loyalty to the country in which they are now residing.
