Don't prejudge Muslims (BARF ALERT)

Chicago Sun-Times letter to the editor ^ | 8/03/05 | M. Ali Khan

[<1/1,000,000th%]

Arabs are people of color?

Does affirmative action apply to them? Or are they like the Asians.

I don't have to pre-judge Muslims...All I have to do is look at their history.

[Publius6961]

Neither Christians nor Jews feel compelled to take out newspaper ads declaring their faith's innocence whenever acts of violence and extremism are carried out by individuals or groups who share their religion.

Another verification that muslims are aliens. This makes no sense. Why make a comparison that makes no sense?

I have never once heard of a criminal in the US volunteering his religion or shouting hysterically that he does things for his religion.
I also never heard of rallies supporting murderers where the central hate being spewed is their god's name.

So why pretend that is all reality just to make a stupid comparison?

[Publius6961]

Where are you getting these numbers?

Repeated polls, not only in islamic countries, but also in Western countries among muslims.

[SJackson]

I have never once heard of a criminal in the US volunteering his religion or shouting hysterically that he does things for his religion.

I presume you're excluding the converts to Islam who've been jailed in the US. No, it's not a hundred, but it's not two either.

I don't have to pre-judge Muslims...All I have to do is look at their history.

The Muslims who do not condone the actions of the terrorists in jihad are considered to be heretics and infidels by the Muslims who follow the teachings of Koran to conquor the world by force for Islam.

[bfree]

I, too, am not pre judging muslims. I have looked at the evidence and judged them--guilty.

[barker]

After all McVeigh did not bomb the building in the name of Christ. However Islamic terrorism always claims to commit their vile acts in the name of Islam. .....

All terrorism committed by muslims is done in the name of Islam, hence it is in essence Islamic Terrorism.

Bingo.

[Shazbot29]

These are standard Talking Points. It seems some sort of Memo (probably penned by CAIR) has been making the rounds. I'll believe the followers of the moon god and its pedophile leader (may he burn in hell covered with Jimmy Dean Portk Sausage forever) are sincere when they:

1. Issue a Fatwa condemning, BY NAME, Osama bin Laden, and that dude in Falluja (Alkawi? Alugly? Albinscrewy?)

2. Issue a Fatwa condemn BY NAME The Tali-ban, Al Quaeda, Hezbolla, the PLO, and all other avowed terrorist organizations.

3. Issue a formal apology for Mexico City, Beirut, the first attack on the WTC, the Cole, 9/11, 3/11, 7/7 and all other attacks on civilization.

4. Use the size of its population to take up a collection to make reparations for the victims of 3. It should be in the several billion dollar range.

5. Put together a reverse-jihad, and march in the streets with American flags chanting "Long Live the U.S.A!" "Down with Al Quaida"

Then I MIGHT believe they are not lying to our face (something that is not only allowed, but DEMANDED by the accursed, evil quran)

<< Knowing the atrocities committed against blacks in the name of Christianity ... >>

Really?

Care to detail, say, ten such "atrocities," Sa'id Muhummid A. K?

As incentive I'll swap you 1400 years hundreds of millions of muslim atrocities -- including those of your namesake, the death-and-destruction-worshipping, cerifiably-insane, psychopathic, paedophile pirate, moon-rock-mumbling, Muhummid and of the several millions of your disgustingly-depraved degenerate death cult's bloody rapes, sexual mutilations and murders during just the past twenty years -- for any ten even remotely similar instances among Christians, ever, of such morbidly-hesperophobic acts of barbaric depravity as are the everyday definitive behaviors of your fellow false-fuhrer-followers' murderous psychosis!

[Alouette]

atrocities committed against blacks in the name of Christianity

What atrocities were committed against blacks in the name of Christianity?

I think of those poor black people in the Sudan suffering atrocities committed in the name of...oh wait, these blacks are Christian!!!

[Victoria Delsoul]

It's asking America in advance not to lose its cool if another terrorist attack should strike this nation -- as we shamefully did in locking down Japanese Americans in World War II.

Terrorist attacks don't strike by themselves like storm or thunder. What he's saying is that we should just shut up and take it, even if fanatic Islamics bomb our cities and our people in the name of Allah. We wouldn't want religious prejudice clouding our thinking when trying to defend ourselves.

[NY Attitude]

What happened to the Japanese Americans was not based on religion. It was a culture and a race that we went to war with. Since this was a "Sneak Attack" and no one was sure just who to trust, the Japeneses Americans were interred. A viewing of the WWII war posters would bear out that we went to war with a culture whose race happened to be Japanese. So if another attack were to occur, would it be against the Muslim religion or the culture and race that breeds and supports the fanaticism?

[Victoria Delsoul]

What happened to the Japanese Americans was not based on religion.

I know about it. I highlighted the author's statement to emphasize his erroneous comparison.

So if another attack were to occur, would it be against the Muslim religion or the culture and race that breeds and supports the fanaticism?

Obviously, it would be against those who support and breed such fanatics. However, – this is not to say that all Muslims are terrorists - but since terrorists are Muslims, any attack to the terrorist would be viewed by Arabs and the rest of the world (with very few exceptions) as attack against Islam.

[NY Attitude]

but since terrorists are Muslims fundamentalists, any attack to the terrorist would be viewed by Arabs and the rest of the world (with very few exceptions) as attack against Islam. / The moderate Muslims are more peaceful especially when religion does not get in the way.

[Victoria Delsoul]

The moderate Muslims are more peaceful especially when religion does not get in the way.

I have yet to see them going out in the streets protesting 9/11 or any other terrorist attack perpetrated by their brothers in other parts of the world. I wish they could use the same energy they have when they trash Tancredo for his comments regarding the holy sites to condemn the cowardly attacks of the fanatic Islamics... unless of course, they don't do it because the “moderates” agree with the fanatics.

Gotta go to bed. Nighty night.

[Itzlzha]

I don't think Muslims are automatically "people of color" and I know that Robert Kennedy had some bad first-hand experience with a Muslim. And I don't believe that the OKC bombing was done in the name of Christianity.

Yeah, check out THIS "Peace Loving" TROP'er on THIS THREAD

Yup...nothin but "Peace Loving" TROP'ers...can you say Al Taqiyya?

I knew you could...

[BayouCoyote]

TOO DAMN LATE!

>>IS RIGHT!

[Publius6961]

I have prejudging muslims for 20 years+ and have absolutely no indications whatsoever that there is any reason to change now.

I do not plan to change in my lifetime.
