#1 Good. Unite the clerics. Make them begin to centralize Islamic policy-making. Then hold all of them accountable for any future atrocities. This decentralized bullsh!t aspect of Islam has let it off of the hook for far too long. While they're at it, they can figure out a way to begin expelling all the jihadis. If they can't, we'll do the job for them and it won't be pretty.

#2 Zenster, the centralized form is called... Caliphate.

I think I decline.

Decentralized Islam has some positive aspect, from a strictly Machiavellian POV.

#3 Naw, let them form their Caliphate. Let them assemble their top spiritual advisers from around the world all in one place. Let them begin to reform their stinking church.

If not, then blow them all straight to hell.

#4 I agree, they should centralize asap and have a big convention (where we can meet them with a variety of air delivered munitions).

#5 Unification would lend them a sense of "credibility" in the Western world viewpoint. Remembering that most people are in the dark about all of this, I think it's a really bad move . . . EXCEPT that you'll soon (and very soon) see them arguing and jockeying for power, and that would be good for everyone to see.

#6 So it's a toss-up.

#7 They can't even unite today in the sense this moonbat meant. They have expended all the karmaic credits, having destroyed the ancient world, committed untold genocides, uprooted civilizations etc., through such previous unity for conquests and bloodshed....and never repented or attoned for them.

#8 At the risk of moderator wrath, I'm going to post this in two places today.

I feel it is extremely important to begin taking these wankers at their word. For quite some time we've been told that "Islam is not a monolithic religion". Despite such minute offshoot sects as the Kurds and whatnot, it is increasingly apparent that much of Islam is monolithic.

One look at how all of the tin pot Islamic dictators, mullahs and every mother's son uses the Palestine issue as a wrench in the gears for all other discussions regarding governmental reform in Muslim majority nations should be enough.

While Muslims continue to claim that Palestinians are being murdered by the Jews, they handily overlook the publically declared intention of genocide on the part of Fatah, Hamas and Hezbollah. The reverse of this matter is not at all so clear.

The beheading of Christians in Indonesia take place in a total absence of any attempts on the lives of Muslims. The Christian church is not calling out for the casting down of Islam. It is merely the minuscule threat of Muslims coming into contact with any other religion or the simple existence of any other religion at all that puts the psychos into a frenzy.

The single fact remains that, claims to the contrary notwithstanding, Islam continues to act and function in a monolithic fashion. The sunni - shiite conflict is about all that disspells this notion until you look at how sunnis and shiites alike still pursue genocide and kill the kufir with glee.

Either Islam unites to form some sort of regulatory body akin to the Catholic Vatican or it must continue to lose all credibility as any sort of ostensible religion. The Pope has done well to begin gnawing at the underpinnings of this revolting death cult.

If Muslims can unite and begin issuing edicts that result in the ejection of jihadists, that is fine. If they cannot unite and refuse to denounce and renounce terrorism, then we need to clean out each and every pocket of this corrupt and decayed ideology.

#9 "Clerics should unite globally"

Preferably all in one place - for easier targeting.

Barbara, that was meant to be intrinsic in my first post when I mentioned how we should, "Then hold all of them accountable for any future atrocities."

#11 Sorry, #10 Zen, honey - did a drive-by & didn't read the previous comments before posting. ;-p
