December 17, 2002 -- Religious tensions erupted yesterday after authorities confirmed that an Arab girl beat up a Jewish girl at a Brooklyn middle school.

The Arab teen was arrested and suspended for the Dec. 12 attack on the 13-year-old Jewish girl, an honors student, at IS 259 in Dycker Heights, sources said.

I believe that I condemned the incident.
Some of us are consistant.

There are Islamists from both the Shi'ite (think Iran) and Sunni sects.

Bin Laden's Islamism is derived from an offshoot of Sunni Islam, called Wahabbism after its founder Ibn Abdul Wahab.
Wahabbism is the official religion of Saudi Arabia.

.............Oh, so now the arabs are being oppressed in school by people who are smarter than they are? I thought grades were based off of one's performance, not whether you're a supposedly oppressed ethnic culture.? .......
.
WHO SAID THAT? I was reiterating what the article said, nothing more. The Arab girl is a Rhodes scholar for all the information that is contained in the article. What does the fact that the Jewish girl is an honors student have to do with these events?

Uhm JMP..>>What does the fact that the Jewish girl is an honors student have to do with these events?

The Jewish girl is the one who got beaten up. So she gets a description.

The attacker does not. Maybe she is an honors student, maybe not.

OK, back to your original point (post 200), specifically #2

After 9/11, GW was on the war path of OBL. Every news item, White House press conference was peppered with references to the 'evil one'. Six months later we are told that OBL is no longer important (despite no evidence of his demise) and now we have another distraction, that (originally U.S. sponsored) punch bag - Saddam Hussein. I therefore feel a certain amount of manipulaton of public opinion is going on and am starting to have severe doubts as to whether Arabs or any other facet of Islam had anything to do with 9/11 to begin with (if you're being truly objective, doubts must begin to surface). I realize this may not be a popular opinion (tin foil, etc.) as the Arab theory sits much better with the pre-existing opinions that one already has about Arabs, but then that's the problem with pre-existing bias, it blinds you to exploring alternative explanations.

allowing boxing is tantamount to child abuse. The teachers might as well be hittinganally raping the children with baseball bats.

You're just one big cliche' aren't you. I bet some of your best friends are Black too. The issue here being discussed does not have anything to do with race. Perhaps you've just joined the wrong post

No, you're just one complete idiot who doesn't understand how these forums work.

NO.1: Is your name Bruno ? You will note that it is Bruno to which my post is directed.

NO. 2: The fact that I have italized the line means that it is a quote from Bruno to whom I am addressing my comment.

NO.3: This is not your own private posting.

NO.4: You are just determined to bait as many posters as possible, are you not ?

NO. 5: Again, you're an idiot !!!

..........And you probably think like droberts, that the arabs are opressed and the only recourse they have is to blow up Jewish teenage girls..........
.
I have made no judgements and that seems to be your problem. You want me to condem Arabs as a whole people based on the non facts in this article. You are reading facts into the article. That is by definition BIASED.
.
On another note, your contention that the cultures of the world are not always compatible with our culture is right on target and fruit for discussion on another day.

So you're saying the jews caused 911? And that's why they all got phone calls saying to stay home that day?

No, more like ex-Unocal consultants heading up Afghanistan when all the opposition parties magically step down before the vote.

No, ultimately I have no idea who was behind 9/11. Furthermore, I would submit that based upon the actual evidence presented to the public, I don't see how anyone can know who was behind 9/11.

Well, that's because all the countries around there want a pipeline for oil and gas.

And the Taliban had the same offer but werre too stupid to take it up despite the pleadings of the saudis and the pakistanis to accept the pipeline. And the US was prepared to ignore sharia in afghanistan if the pipeline had gone through.

That's not new. Yea, Karzai and Khalilzad are both ex-unocal guys. Guess Unocal had a head start on other companies.

And it wasn't only Unocal, there was also an Argentinian company bidding against them with the Taliban.

The parties stepped down where? In Germany last year? Or this year..either way, same reason, US 'suggested' they do so. That's why Rabbani isn't Prez but Karzai is.

.........That's it. You belittle attacks on Jews and I'm pathetic.........
.
WHO HAS ATTACKED JEWS? Alledging that is what earns you the label. Don't resort to name calling when you are loosing an argument. It doesn't work, so stop doing it. It's transparent and just makes you look like a looser.

Oh isn't this cute?
First Dr. Roberts claims victimhood status for the attackers, then he blames the attack on Israeli policies, and now he claims 9-11 was not done by AL-Qaeda.

Are you a Neo-nazi or sympathyser, an Islamist or sympathyser, or an America and Jew hating leftist? I don't have enough information to tell which yet. (Is't it sad that these groups overlap so much)

After 9/11, GW was on the war path of OBL. Every news item, White House press conference was peppered with references to the 'evil one'.
Perhaps you missed the Al-Jazeera tapes where both Bin Laden and his right-hand man, Al Zawaheeri claimed AL-Qaeda's responsibiility?

Six months later we are told that OBL is no longer important (despite no evidence of his demise) and now we have another distraction, that (originally U.S. sponsored) punch bag - Saddam Hussein

1. Saddam was also sponsored by the USSR.
2. Who says that OBL is unimportant.
Just because mass murderer A is on the loose doesn't mean taht we cant go after B is we can find only B.

I therefore feel a certain amount of manipulaton of public opinion is going on and am starting to have severe doubts as to whether Arabs or any other facet of Islam had anything to do with 9/11 to begin with (if you're being truly objective, doubts must begin to surface). I realize this may not be a popular opinion (tin foil, etc.) as the Arab theory sits much better with the pre-existing opinions that one already has about Arabs, but then that's the problem with pre-existing bias, it blinds you to exploring alternative explanations.

Yes folks, Counterpunch, the Nation, Z-magazine, and not taking your meds properly does rot your brain.

WoW! That takes the cake. Osama, Zawahiri, Gheith have all taken credit. Binal ALshibh, the hijacker denied a visa, captured in Karachi, gave an interview to aljazeera giving great details of the op and all that is not enough.

OK.

Why isn't this a hate crime?

An excellent question.
