you are grouping people who want censorship of porn, and the banning of alcohol in their areas in the same category as extremists terrorists and nazi's. muslims who blow themselves up and the like are extremists, but muslims who want to ban certain things their religion finds immoral in their area are not

One thing about the Muslims you have to be aware of; their "bible", the Koran, permits and advocates violence against people who do not follow Islamic beliefs, as a matter of policy.

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries!
Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity.
The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities - but the influence of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow it.
No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome."
-Sir Winston Churchill (The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50 (London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1899).
““Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Qu’ran should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.”
—Omar Ahmed CAIR (Council for American Islamic Relations) Founding Chairman”

these secondary meanings are ascribed to jihad in an attempt to "modernize" the religion. more an attempt to disguise a rotten core.

Sir, you are an IDIOT. What you just described is SECULARISM and it is why Christianity is still around and every last single delusional Christian was not hunted down and it was a GIFT from the intellectuals of the time. See that as real forgiveness.
The same goes for Islam. It finds itself more and more drawn to secularism because any reasonable person could NOT defend a physical holy war in 2011 with arguments, so they have to change their belief a little.
If there was no secularism we would all still be going to war with each other over invisible men instead of invisible money.

Probably all part of the plan to turn us against the muslims, I believe this started with 911 or at least thats when I started to think this. the whole thing with muslims now days seams to familiar like iv read it or seen it in films about our history before, Only witha differant religion this time.
