I was wondering if anyone else got this unsolicited DVD in the
mail?

It arrived in my mail box a couple of days ago and I watched
part
of it last night. It is about Radical Islamists and is very
scary
if you are inclined to take rhetoric like that at face value.

They did seem to try to make the distinction between regular
Islamists and the Radical ones. They said that there are about a
Billion Muslims and about 10 to 15 percent are radical. It seems
to me that we faced much bigger and more organized numbers in
WWII.

Sure we should take them seriously but the only way they can
"destroy the West" is if we help them and do things like Bush
did
by using 911 and WMD's as an excuse to attack Iraq.

If they do destroy us it will be the fear mongering and the over
reacting by us that will do the trick.

we also got it in the newspaper. no, i didn't watch it.- Hide

After I posted my message I looked on the web to see what was being
said about it and I found the web page for the "movie". One of the
most obvious parts of the page was a big red "Donate" button. I
couldn't help but wonder if the donations were to help pay for
making
the movie or would be going to some even more sinister purpose.

David

I believe they're a non-profit and live off donations like any any
other. So far, all I see here are posts that the DVD was "judged"
before it was watched. BTW, your reaction was exactly the one they
warn against.

Whether you agree or disagree with their viewpoint, an open mind
would
at least listen before before tossing it in the trash. Letters to
the
editor ran 50-50 in today's paper.

Does that also mean that I have to start answering my phone and
listen
to all the political activists who are calling?

John

Did you post about disagreeing with what that person said before you
listened to them? :-)

Steve Hawkins

It wouldn't do me any good. I've already kill filed myself.
