#1 The UAE uses UK civil law instead of the shariah nonsense. They are also running out of oil by 2017.

#2 It might be said that "Christmas can bring Christians and Muslims together in a spirit of retail."

#5 Great observation, Joe. One huge exception being that Godless Soviet communism was much more susceptible to creeping Westernization than theocratic Islam will prove.

I'm beginning to think that one single justification for banning Islam is so that no sort of referendum to overthrow constitutional rule of law can ever be passed, even by a majority of the popular vote. Those who refuse to live in such a nation are welcome to immediately leave.

Just as reformation needs to be conducted from within Islam, it becomes increasingly clear that the World's immigrant Muslim population may need to be returned entirely to their place of origin. Allowing a policy of Qua'rntine forced repatriation may be one of the only possible ways of diminishing the threat of Islamic terrorism.

It's radical aspect and intention of overthrowing the process of elected representation in favor of installing Sharia make it an irreconcilable enemy of constitutional law. Let Islam's reformation take place with its adherents all located within their legal (Sharia) sphere.

Let them demonstrate that such internal terrorism (as in Sunni versus Shiite), can halt before there is any thought of lifting the Qua'rntine. This will be one of the only hopes that may force the Muslim Majority nations to reconcile themselves against terrorism in general. So long as they cannot resolve that much then they are forbidden to migrate out of the existing Muslim majority nations and neither may their borders increase or change.

Whatever it takes, there are some serious answers that have to be found in dealing with a religion that permits taqqiya. It is the ultimate ethical and moral sin or crime in many respects. This and gender apartheid form a huge core of what must be reformed before Islam is anywhere near neutralized.
