Islam, in and of itself, was formed by a man traveling to Israel that wanted to be proclaimed a Prophet of God.
Your religion christianity was formed the same way....a prophet rode into jerusalem on a donkey
But its different for you right?
You have the right software for your brain and they have the wrong software...right?
When he was refused, he wrote and hatred slipped out here and there. I would have no problem calling Ishmael my children, but they will not listen to correction at all.
I've been to ma ny muslim countries and found the people to be very friendly. I was in Egypt right after 911
I was walking through poor districts in those countries completely unharmed. Could i walk through poor districts in your country unharmed?
I've been to many majority world countries and despite crippling poverty i've found the people to be friendly and helpful. Most people of genuine faith want to live virtuous lives
There are other people however who want to use religion for their political ends.
So there are strains of thought. So in the west we have 'ideologies' like fascism and communism and capitalism which have caused wars that have seen the deaths of millions and millions of people
In the middle east there are some strains of thought such as wahhabism which is funded by the saudi royal family which in turn is supported by and propped up by the corporate powers of the US
ISIS is infected with TAKFIRI thought and i would argue it is that which is the real problem not islam in general
For example christians have circumvented the message of peace at the centre of their relgion way back in the crusades when they unleashed violence in the middle east...they even made an order of warrior monks...which previously would have been seen as an unreconcileable contradiction
Judaism too is in Israel fully militarised with people required to carry out military service
islam is for the most part peaceful but there is a lot of anger in the middle east which stems from western interference in their lands. Not only is the west occupying many countries with military forces but it is also exploiting middle east oil and propping up unelected royal families thereby stopping the people from developing democracy and gaining a political voice (they are suppressed with violence using hardware provided by the west)
That anger is then channelled by people who are selling extremist strands of thought such as wahhabism or takfirism
Just as some christians and jews interprete their hoyl texts in a way that permits violence, some muslims do the same with theirs...its all down to interpretation
Trying to lump all of islam in with the western backed extremists though discounts my own personal experience of the peaceful welcome I have received from muslims in different countries. i have been asked to join weddings and parties and to eat with complete strangers...i strongly doubt i would recieve the same hospitality in many western countries that have been infected with the consumerism strain of thought
That, in and of itself, makes them appear fatherless to me. Their leaders should be stopped and outlawed that want killings. There is something at the very root of this flowing through its veins I see and do not like.
There's anger against western interference (to stop this we need to stop interfering) that is then channelled by extremist groups (which we fund and train!!!)
Humanity has lost its dignity. Equal rights for all? Black man gets served an arrest warrant, flips his handcuffs, kicks a door window out, and wields a gun. He gets shot. Black people start shooting at cars in the streets. Happened today. Why?
Because black people have been exploited and frozen out of US society because of the racism that runs through the veins of your country
When PEOPLE start acting like criminals and committing crimes, then fight when trying to be arrested, it doesn't matter any longer what is right and what is wrong to those in the street.
Your government are acting like criminals and often your police are too....are you suprised to see criminality in society when your own authorities tghemselves are criminals?
They act like thugs. Someone is going to get killed. Call the NAACP. White man? It makes the news and there is a trial in five years or so. The black community harbors so much hatred for the law, but the law protects their mothers and children from people that don't care.
No the law doesn't protect them thats why they are angry
There is no situation that cannot be made worse by calling the police!
It's getting bad and going to get worse. ISIS? Let a white cop shoot a black criminal... It's the people and their values; they have no real values. Carrying a gun is a responsibility, not a way let off steam.
Add hatred to these other values and you get murderers and thieves. News flash!! Leave me alone and I leave you alone. Cut a few heads off and kill a few hundred unarmed men on TV? Incoming. What do they expect????? Sorry, but we don't think that's funny.
Prove to me that ISIS cut off those westerners heads
Explain to me why the videos of it are not aavailable when the internet is awash with graphic footage of beheadings?
