Interesting point. Here in the bayarea on the news tonight muslims were taking a stand saying that if anyone in their cummunity were involved in any thing that violated the law especially on the level done recently they would inform the authorities.

That's awesome! Hopefully that attitude will spread. That will go a long way to reconcilling things...

[quote=tijanaw]Ignorance is the fact you believe yours is a religion of peace. Yes, I've lived in the south while stationed in Florida for the Air Force. I've been great friends with many of my fellow black soldiers so no, I dont wear white robes. I've been in this war more than once and you know what is most satisfying? The fact I've played both direct and indirect roles in the killing of a whole bunch of muslim fanatics. Sorry if you feel I pissed in your cheerios with that one there zero. But you know what? We're smokin more of em every day!

There was a similar message from a Canadian Muslim group just today. They are encouraging their community to be vigilant and report suspicious activities and extremist views to authorities. It's a far cry from the intensity of the flag-burning death-to-the-west street demonstrations from the followers of the extremists but it's a start.

If your point is a valid one, why resort to name-calling? Let your arguments speak for themselves. I disagree with your position - one of the many rights I have as an American, that troops such as yourself have fought to protect. In exercising that right, I suddenly become a terrorist-symapthizer?

This thread wasn't started to condemn those responsible for terrorist atrocities. Wagner's initial post villified all Muslims, not just those responsible for terrorist acts. That's why my posts defend those that did not take part or support these attacks; from that, you've incorrectly inferred that I am also defending those that do.

Taking pleasure in the death of others is something you're proud of? That's not the earkmark of the peace-loving society that America is. Just out of curiosity, do you know any Muslims? What is your basis for hating 1 out of 6 people in the world?

As an aside, I noticed you've changed your hometown - somewhat childish, in my humble opinion.

And finally, its interesting that you've assumed I'm Muslim, because I'm not. I'm Hindu. Which is pretty much beside the point. My religious beliefs or non-beliefs are irrelevant to any argument I've made.

Zero....paraphrase much?

Basic point was Bush saying "Islamic fascists" and some Counsil for American-Islamic Relations attacks the commentator.

Personally I have more then a few friends who have come and gone and gone back to Iraq and Afghanistan. When you're getting shot at and your vehicle blown up by poon-tangs that hide in houses, you let me know if you aren't happy when you finally get them. You know, after you watch your friends intestines spill out in a troop carrier.

I just wanna add that my cousin married a Jordanian guy. He is actually Christiona though and that is hy he came here since muslims treeat him like shit and say he is a traiter to his country. Muslims link religion to govt. and that is the problem. You cant be from the middle east and not muslim according to them or your a traiter and should be killed. Also the way they look at it is that it is Muslims agaist the rest of the world for the only reason that the rest of the world isnt muslim. You dont have to do something bad to them for them to hate you. they just hate you because you are not muslim. To them there mission is either to convert you to be muslim or kill you.
this is what ive learned from my new cousin. He actually hates muslims all muslims. He has read the Coran. "I think i spelled that wrong but who cares. from cover to cover" froom cover to cover. And he said they are fucking crazy and the only way to beat them and creat peace is to kill them. they are the root to every problem we currently have. There religion tells them life is worthless and your real life is after you die and if your a good muslim you will get something like 50 virgins and little boys when you die and swim in rivers of honey and shit like that. And they have like 100 wives whom they treat like garbage. My cousin also said the prophet mohammad was a petiphile. He used to have sex with little boys. He told me alo more. But i was shock when i heard this shit. Mind you My cousin is a doctor and extremely well educated. I believe hime. He was born in the middle east and lived there until he was 25 years old. So he knows alot more about it than you and I so i really believe what he has to say. Just to let you know im just telling everyone whay my middleastern cousin told me these are not my opinions so dont get pist at me for this thread. I just wanted to give everyone an opinion of someone who is actually from that part of the world who is not muslim.
