So you're willing to have Islamists, white supremacists, etc. openly editing Wikipedia as long as they attempt to follow NPOV? I don't. I think the presence of such individuals is harmful to the community.
I think you're being borderline intolerant.
I'm not the one denouncing the Jews.
What is an "Islamist" exactly?
Wikipedia has an excellent article on this. I'm using the term to denote fundamentalists who support things like terrorism and destroying the Jews.
If they merely have Islamist sympathies, etc etc. Meanwhile, we have openly Bush-supporting, pro-Iraq war, pro-gun etc editors. Banning Yin without banning Yang (particularly when we have far more Yang than Yin) isn't going to help our NPOV problem, nor our systemic bias.
I'm willing to ban any editors who believe in exterminating Muslims.
