Hi **Skeleton10** , welcome to the Dope. I’m impressed that you have actually posted in other threads, as well as starting this one. This suggests you may actually be interested in being a member of the community, rather than a one-off drive-by. I flipped through the video, but no sound, 'cause I’m at work. It seems to be a pastiche of scary images about how the Muslims plan to make Islam the dominant religion of the US, with some scary video of women being accosted in - maybe Iran? maybe Saudi? - by the dress code police. They had a clip from that mentally subnormal guy on Fox, Glenn Beck, so I skipped that bit. **Ivan** , you’re really getting worked up lately, more than you used to. ---

Oh, come on! With a title like The Third Jihad, what do you think it is going to be about? It is a short documentary asking - maybe telling - just how much of a threat Islamic terrorists might be. ---

Some might see it as a radical challenge to post-Didera criticism with an almost breathtaking disregard towards neo-classical modes of thought, others might see it as a really excellent floor wax. ---

I don’t know what it says about me, but I didn’t pay any close attention to the OP’s username or join date, I just thought it was semi-interesting title and gave it a click. I really don’t see why some of you folks are so reluctant to do it. Okay, if you are at work, fair enough. But if you are at home, what is so difficult about opening up another tab? ---

> [@ivan\_astikov](#): > > Oh, come on! With a title like The Third Jihad, what do you think it is going to be about? Hell, I don’t know, it could’ve been a conspiracy nut’s home movie about how Obama really isn’t a US citizen and he’s a radical Islamist version of _The Manchurian Candidate_. (And from your description, it still might be. 😛 ) Sitting at home I’ve got a DVD of an award-winning documentary shipped by Netflix a few months ago and I still haven’t gotten around to watching it. And that’s after reading glowing reviews and deciding I’d find it interesting. I don’t watch anything longer than a few minutes without some good idea what it is, sorry. The least some random person could do when they’re recommending the latest ‘this is how the world is going to end/why we’re headed for doom’ video is write up a damned good review. At least I can work via talking on the phone or reading/responding to E-mail while surfing here, so hey. > [@Miller](#): > > Some might see it as a radical challenge to post-Didera criticism with an almost breathtaking disregard towards neo-classical modes of thought, others might see it as a really excellent floor wax.

Thank you Mr.3, no I have no interest in spamming a forum and I am here out of concern for this species called man (okay women too) For me watching this I was not surprised, I opened my eyes long ago, but I believe it to be factual and it really plays out that _if you can’t take them by force then force them out._ I have tried many way to accept what is being forced on me by…let’s say those that were elected to lead by example and I no longer prescribe to the notion that “it’s my best interests” I have thoughtful contribution, I don’t just spew, I am not a bigot, I am a proactive member of the the United States and what it means to me.
