Just what did muslim culture(almost sounds like an oxymoron, doesn't it?) give us? Algebra, magic lamps, flying carpets

Interesting. I saw this the other day attributed to Dennis Miller, not Larry Miller.

Whoever said it, it is brilliant!

Everything that Arab Islamic ‘culture’ claims as their creationa actually came from another ethnic group, such as Assyrians, or Persians, or Indians which was conquered and subsumed.

It is impossible for a people like the Bedouin Arabs, who lived in tents in the desert and were pastoral people tending their flocks of grazing animals when not raiding their neighbors, to have developed architectural wonders.

No, it was the result of peoples forced at sword-point to convert to Islam who produced wonders but the severe limitations put on people’s lives hampered the ability to sustain and be creative long-term, so the ‘Islamic culture’ eventually withered and become dormant.

that’s the same reason that there are no Arabs or Muzzies in Star Trek... because it’s based in the future..

Everything the so called ‘Palestinians’ touch turns to shit. Witness the hell hole they find themselves living in, which is not the fault of anything the Israeli’s have done. In fact, the only good they have there is because of the benevolence of the Israelis.

There are some people in this world you just can’t feel sorry for and the faux Palestinians are on the top of that list for me.

Mostly they showed up because Lebanon and Jordan threw them out.

Defenders of Islam always trot out those inventions the Muslims supposedly gave the world about one thousand years ago like algebra and some other things I can't remember at the moment. Which begs the questions: why haven't they contributed anything else since then except misery, death to infidels, oppression of females, and new ways to abuse goats?

The world of Islam is basically a world devoid of interest in the scientific method or inventions the rest of the world can use. When the Islamists scream "Death To Jews!!!" they are also screaming "Death To Western Civilization!!!."

As soon as the Jews took over and started growing oranges as big as basketball

Of course the Jews didn't "take over." They came so land hungry the local denizens sold them deserts and swamps, poisonous snakes and thicket, waste and ruin for five times what the "land" was worth. The locals laughed all the way to the bank.

Then those land hungry chumps worked eighteen hours a day seven day a week for several generations to make it produce.

Then the former owners said they, not only, wanted it back, they wanted those chumps to simply vacate it.

What bothers most of the world and our own Balloon Head in Chief is that obstinate, contrary, blight of a citizenry said, "Over our dead bodies." Our Balloon Head in Chief leads the world in questioning the temerity of people really demanding to keep what they earned.

Larry Miller points out one very salient point in the original article from the Weekly Standard. This rant started because he was watching Greta Van Susterin who had someone from Hamas on and Hamas’s lawyer. A guy named Stanley Cohen. As Miller notes, Stanley Cohen? Really? Representing Hamas? There are too many self loathing Jews in America. You think there are any Mustafa’s working on the Israeli payroll?

[MosesKnows]

let’s not use the word ‘Palestinian’

The evidence doesn’t support your assertion. What would you suggest the people who live in Palestine be called if not Palestinians?

... Algebra, magic lamps, flying carpets

All of those things existed before Mohamhead and Islam did.
