is to take over i was all done to fly people until they believed in islam. ok this is what mohamed said what well that is that is. that is absolutely i'm kind of the reality of a person like me who is an eighth generation american whose parents are christian whose associates and friends and loved ones in many ways in many cases are christian no one has ever told me in any religious context that i've been in that the purpose of my life was to somehow overturn constitutional law and replace it with sharia that simply isn't true and nor is it true in agreement on. this in the muslim world that in which muslims are way way way in which muslims or either a majority or a minority so i think you're simply taking a. chance and trying and you're right and you're trying to universalize it in a way that's not true wafa go ahead it is simply not true that's not the reality they really want in the united states of america you are not something you're not supposed to wait for someone to tell you about islam you should do your own homework and reach your own conclusion doe

american foreign policy in the perceptions of islam go ahead. sure the point is that we want to make is that it is possible to look at very complex world history and see the worst and the best size of faith traditions and communities of faith including islam i am not in any way an apologist for evil for terrorism or for violence and i think those things do exist within islam as they have existed and do exist in other traditions but having said that i also believe that the islam that i follow and the vast majority of people in the world follow and putting those in the united states is not an islam of. terrorism or one that is an apologist for violence or one that sees itself exclusively as a revelation that cannot co-exist with people of other faiths ok well so you made a point in the first part of the program about how there are islam by its very nature needs to take over the world desires to take over the world and that's your position and maybe other people believe that but there's one there is a fact on the ground is that for some muslims and

they are the islamic threat, communist china and russia. first, islam is a religion of peace. we were told this after the attack set september 11th after islamic operatives hijacked into the plans in the world trade center, the pentagon and were thwarted for another target here in washington probably not very far from here. president bush was a very good man, and he believed it was otherwise persuaded is mom was no different than a strain of the judeo-christian heritage that its adherents, the islamic adherence more peaceful of decent people who report what happened september 11th. president bush even said on october 11th 2002 that islam is a vibrant faith. mel little bo citizens are muslim and we respect the faith, we honor its traditions, our enemy does not read our enemy doesn't follow the great tradition of islam these high-tech degree religion. and of quote. it's common to circle the wagons and the president when he's thought to have conservative leanings and even today since we know president bush was another decent man, but mr. bush and his administration did the countr

a cult that there is no moderate islam and that we are at war with islam now out that certainly doesn't sound like statements of two very fair minded people to me which isn't shocking in the least considering that peter king is about far as far from fair minded when it comes to islam as possible and what's really sad as a congressman peter king is wasting taxpayer money and time with these sham hearings now we should point out that before the september eleventh attacks came from new york had a great. relationship with the muslim community in his district after the attacks he went on t.v. urging all americans not to target muslims around the country because they had nothing to do with those attacks and i wonder where that peter king went and recent years he's embarked on a mission to paint all members of islam in an awful light and that's why republican congressman peter king of new york is tonight's trial time winner. but with the war on islam still alive and well here in the u.s. it seems to be a different story over in britain according to a report by faith matters the u.k. seeing a s

it was something called the islamic courts government. but, ethiopia, and also what is sometimes american paranoia on subjects, managed to persuade the american government of that time, that islamic extremists were taking root, or were nesting, inside ts islamic urts government. and so, on that basis, with our support, ethiopia invaded somalia and overthrew that government. well, now that relatively moderate islamic courts government has morphed into something called al-shabab, which is much more militantly islamic, and much more violent. in the meantime, we in the united nations were, had stuck together in nairobi by bribing and buying clothes for islam--for somali politicians and so on. a so-called transitional government, which was eventually installed in mogadishu, protected by... >> capitalist somalia. >> ...yeah. protected by african union troops. well, that government was never elected, of course, and now, it controls nothing more than a few square blocks of mogadishu. and if you removed the african union troops, which are primaril

there was a rise of islamic insurgency.while the service is very active, -- for the external we have the general external security, comprising roughly a 4500 people. this is the france external intelligence agency. there was an increase in capacity. in order to analyze various pieces of data. overall, this is not jack bauer. it can be very basic. at the same time, high-tech, too. it mostly comprises of inputs from paid or unpaid conformance from local tribes and looking at sensitive areas to check aqim moves. i would not be surprised if the u.s. side is doing its at the same thing at the same time. i hope, actually. the technical choice in the program announcements the strategic priority. ok, so this is supposed to provide for capacity, but it is partly a good size for africa. we have a branch, but we also of special forces from the military side better able to intervene. this is what we call special ops, c.o.s., and there is a fairly long field experience in africa, which is significant. we also have the french police coop

moderate islam triumphing over radical islam. this is another question that maybe has some very large scale relevance on some level,. but particularly in the wake of the assassination and other events, these categories have been rendered obsolete. there is this feud that as the liberals or holding down the fort against the radicals, and it is true that a lot of them are more liberal on a number of social and cultural issues, but it is also true that another party was inspired by radicals. it does not take much to look beneath the surface at the ideology behind this and realize, gosh, they're liberal on a whole number of issues but they respect a profit. there were others celebrating the killing of the governor. these should not have been tremendously surprising. we set up categories of moderates and radicals. we have seen those categories been inadequate. they comport very well with a notion of liberalism. at the end of the day, there are issues at which they do things that shocked us as being illiberal. the question is not art t

an islamic group called boko haram claimed responsibility for this. we cannot lead them to this until whoever is behind it actually claimed responsibility. -- we cannot lnk them to this. >> funerals have been held in baghdad for two people who were killed in a rash of bomb attacks on christian homes in the city. there has been a campaign of intimidation against iraqi constrictions -- against iraqi christians. >> iraq's dwindling christian community bids farewell to the latest victims of the campaign to drive out. the two people died were an elderly couple. their only sin was to be christians at the wrong place at the right time. at least half a dozen christian homes were singled out for attack in the rash of explosions across the city. among those who survived, and mixture of anger and fear. >> enough with terrorism. if they want us to lives -- leave, we will leave. let us live. >> this family has been living here since the 1950's. a bomb went off at the their neighbor's house and another in their garden. now, they're planning to leave but it is not e

don't compare how people are responding to islam by catholic or irish.instead you have to think in terms of pearl harbor. stay with me while i say that. here's why. what you had was the first attack on the american continental's wilson's 1,812th so you've got a lot of americans open-minded but now they see this is scary them to death. they think is this muslims and so the result of that is there is a tremendous amount of fear. christine was interviewing and by -- she said nothing is changed in the last ten years. are you disappointed? i wanted him to say no, i'm excited to read think about it, we have no interment camps, and you list all the things that happened to the japanese after pearl harbor. it was horrible and the reality is it's not better i agree that it's not worse and it's like hernan those ultimately your place is coming and i agree with you, rashad, we can't be still and ignore it and the honest is on the majority. people like me opening their churches and say we want to get to know you, we want to get along, if we want to do that, please, c

law islam democracy. so. we live in well i mean i mean jeff i mean you're right i mean this again that's very academic but i mean under eight years of bush and then under two years of obama we still see american understanding of democracy and i got to go to bruce here on this one to protect american national interests ok it's a cover it's a cover for sure it's a cover to protect american interests that's why you know it can it's galling that hillary clinton will come out and say we need more democracy in egypt why couldn't she say that when she became secretary of state why couldn't a secretary of state said that twenty five or thirty years ago. if you can see the difference between obama and bush you know they're not really looking close i'm not going. to do that they're not now washington to the region ok i think there is borlase to say yeah they're not one hundred eighty degrees but but but there are significant differences but i come back to a point that terry gilliam it because it's an important poin

and the whole rhetoric narrative behind islam.so there is still unfortunately even despite the racial divide, there is still that connecting narrative, that unfortunately we really need to try to work on and i'm very glad to hear that the ownership you are taking as an individual and your community to try to work on that behalf, think it is very important that other communities also support and work and also support and work with other communities on the various issues that we are all facing. >> we are going to take that question i think and also send that to the next panel in terms of ethnic makeup of the african-american community, african-american component of our muslim-american community as we will have those on the next panel and they will have an introspective look at some of the issues that we have been talking about. i think this has been quite an eye-opening panel. we have discussed a number of issues, namely the issues have changed and how we all have to be repositioning ourselves to have a discussion about this issue.

that underlying foundation of islam is the take all that is the world. muslims you know how i still believe in islam as an illusion and as a state what stands out i'm not i love to live and that's the american constitution they are here if ventura lito to please that i made it down constitution with islamic sharia because no one is allowed to live but and that. this is what mohammad said well thought well for that is that all we are not ready for that is absolutely contrary to the reality of a person like me who is an eighth generation american whose parents are christian whose associates and friends and loved ones in many way in many cases are christian no one has ever told me in any religious context that i've been in that the purpose of my life was to somehow. overturn constitutional law and replace it with sharia that simply isn't true nor is it true in agreement on radio you know your place is in the muslim world that in which muslims are way way way in which muslims are or either a majority or a minority so i think you're simply taking in that phra

egyptian police say they are focusing their investigation on a group of islamic hardliners. meanwhile, growing concerns of attacks in europe. french police are investigating attacks against coptic churches in paris. we went to the coptic church in berlin to gauge the mood there. >> for many copts, having a place where they can worship without fear has become a place in germany. many have fled religious persecution in egypt or iraq. but after the attack on fellow copts in alexandria, they are once again fearful. >> we are afraid. of course, we are afraid. >> they can see our address on the internet, and our names are also there. >> even though german authorities have increased security at coptic churches, worshipers are still uneasy. other christian churches in germany have expressed their concern about the increased persecution of christians in the least, and they want the government to act. >> we expect germany to step up political pressure on egypt. expressions of regret need to be followed up by action, and that should clearly demonstrate that christians in egypt will be
