| #7 The Muslim Students Association and the Jihad Network As revealed in documents seized by the FBI and entered as evidence in a Texas court, the Muslim Students Association is a legacy project of the Muslim Brotherhood.[1] ... A formal plan for targeting America was devised three years after the Iranian revolution, in 1982.[6]. The plan was summarized in a 1991 memorandum written by Mohamed Akram, an operative of the Muslim Brotherhood. “The process of settlement” of Muslims in America, Akram explained, “is a ‘Civilization-Jihadist Process.’” This means that members of the Brotherhood “must understand that their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God’s religion is made victorious over all other religions.”[7] ... Founded by members of the Muslim Brotherhood, MSA was named in Mohammed Akram’s 1991 memorandum as one of the Brotherhood’s likeminded “organizations of our friends” who shared the common goal of destroying America and turning it into a Muslim nation. These “friends” were described by the Brotherhood as groups that could help teach Muslims “that their work in America is a kind of grand jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands ... so that ... God’s religion Islam is made victorious over all other religions.”[13] |

| #6 Give them the same rights they give to others (cf the Copts in "tolerant" Egypt) when they are dominant. |

| #4 The main concern about the ad is that it links a modern political ideology with a religion, which has been around for over 1,400 years. As time has shown, this religion is rich with heritage and culture, and is too superior to waste our time trying to refute such allegations. Nicely written. However, one of the tenets of Islam is there is no difference between political ideology and religion - a distinction that has helped make the West successful. And while Islam is certainly rich with heritage and culture, judging by the backwardness, ignorance and oppression which marks the lives of those who live under its domain, I am willing to argue that Islam is the least superior religion on the planet. The fact that the author had to come to America, the Great Satan itself, to study biochemistry is testimony to that. |

| #3 The funny part is he still uses the same “evidence,” which has already been debunked. Could I see it so I can form my own opinion, or do I just take your word for it? |

| #2 Muslims have created their own hardships. Sorry for being observant, but they have. |
