LQQKs to me, that you have a lot "wants" that have never materialized. It isn't your fault, either. You were brought up on the notion of the tooth faerie or the Great Pumpkin can save you.
Now, you have changed your tune to The Donald. Good luck! He wants to bomb the ME into oblivion.

A simple declaration that Islam is no longer a religion but a cult. The Branch Davidians were so dangerous we firebomb them but not Muslims?
+1000!
Has it never occurred to you people that it was WRONG for the GOVERNMENT to declare the Davidians as a cult,and that there was and is no excuse for the government murdering them because they held different religious viewpoints than the majority?
PLEASE keep in mind that any government that has the power to declare the Dravidians a cult and take police state action against them that results in them being murdered ALSO has the power to declare Catholics,Protestants,or anyone else a cult and do the same thing to them?
Since WHEN is it proper in America to have the government murder or arrest people for holding unpopular religious beliefs?
Yes,you and I can call any and every religion a cult if we want,but WE are NOT the government. Big,BIG difference.

YES And yes.
Maybe you've misunderstood our position here.
Jeremiad was merely pointing out the HYPOCRISY of the fedgoob in the case of the Davidians and reaction of respective perceived "threat" of Davidians vs. Muzzies.
The Muzzies have declared war on America. Their cult fundamentally opposes all that America represents as well as our laws. Sharia Law and a Caliphate is their *stated* goal. Their acts of terrorism demonstratively prove this point. OVER AND OVER AND OVER again.
I don't believe America ought to live in a Caliphate and under Sharia Law. There are few options in addressing this.

If that is the case I did misunderstand the point,and apologize for my misunderstanding.

And here is where your train leaves the tracks again,and I am not so sure that I am the one that doesn't understand the situation.
What you are proposing amounts to a skate board on a slippery slope. SOME Muslims have declared war on America. Actually on the whole world.
"Their CULT" is also a misnomer,because they are as fragmented as the Protestants and Catholics with their various sects/orders. Hell,they are even worse because it has been hundreds of years now since the Protestants and the Catholics were running around murdering each other in the name of Gawd. Providing you overlook Ireland,that is. Even then it might be more of a case of them just looking for an excuse to fight each other. The Irish are not a peaceable people by nature.
Yeah,I know that I personally use the word "cult"a lot when bumping noses with True Believers here and on other political web sites,but the purpose of this is to try to make some of those cretins understand that no matter how much THEY rant and rave about other denominations being cults,other denominations consider THEM to be cults,too. The end result if they get their desires met and get the True Believers from other denominations/faiths designated as Cultists and given outlaw status is that once you start casting THAT net,you will find it becomes a VERY big net,indeed. You will eventually find yourself caught in it unless you become very,very quiet.
Please think of this the next time you go off on a rant about how Mormons,Quakers,etc,etc,etc are "cult members" and their churches/whatevers shouldn't get tax breaks or be protected by law.
And don't forget that any law passed to affect the Muslim religion can also be brought to bear on YOUR religion and YOUR family.
