Educate ourselves? Learn true Islam? for those who may not know the "true islam" maybe it could be learned right after many muslims themselves learn "true islam" .... oh, and also live by example and not "by the book"

You can say the same about Christianity, too. But I distinctly remember getting chastised on the board for saying that.

Please tell me once where I'm showing hate for anyone. I am a true Muslim and I love all people, I don't care what religion they are. I don't think anyone should be hated for what religion they are practicing. YOU are the one posting an anti-Islamic site are you not? Did I post anything in regards to hating anyone? Absolutely not. Most of my friends aren't even Muslim, the majority are Christians. I work with our local women's group to bring all faiths together. We also work to try to show the truth of Islam b/c of what Islamaphobia has brought to the world.

Did I once mention that Muslims aren't killing each other? Absolutely not, I'd be a dumbass to not SEE the truth. I am educated, I do know what's going on in this world and it does disgust me that these so called Muslims are killing each other. These so called Muslims are not true Muslims. They are extremists and fanatics giving the rest of us a bad name. I agree that they think killing in the name of Islam is a one way ticket to Paradise, Heaven or whatever you wish to call it. Believe it or not I sit and cry b/c of what some of these ppl are doing to each other and their countries. That is not what Islam teaches.

As to that site, I'm sitting and reading it now. I am not saying that the attacks are not real. I don't go around watching the news waiting for terror attacks. I'm not paranoid that way but what it says about Islam and true Islam is totally incorrect.

As to that poem I was trying to prove a point as to what ANY war does to innocent people. War will never be an answer, never. And if it gets others thinking about the consequences of any war than I've proved my point.

Sorry, having a slow day here... did you mean that we could say "learn true Christianity"? and live by example?

Well, we ALL should.... from any religion and if you are an athiest as well... at least the "live by example".... in this particular case I was referring to Islam because that's what we were talking about.... but you certainly have the right to tell Christians or anyone you want the same thing for that matter...I'm sorry that you were chastised for it....

If I was getting bombed during weddings, standing in line to go dancing, or sitting down for a nice holiday dinner in a public hotel, I might just want to shoot someone for no other reason than walking down the street. 1940's is not where it all started by the way, but if you want to start from there, chew on this awhile:

The Palestinians want their own country. There's just one thing about that: There are no Palestinians. It's a made up word. Israel was called Palestine for two thousand years. Like "Wiccan," "Palestinian" sounds ancient but is really a modern invention. Before the Israelis won the land in war, Gaza was owned by Egypt, and there were no "Palestinians" then, and the West Bank was owned by Jordan, and there were no "Palestinians" then. As soon as the Jews took over and started growing oranges as big as basketballs, what do you know, say hello to the "Palestinians," weeping for their deep bond with their lost "land" and "nation." So for the sake of honesty, let's not use the word "Palestinian" any more to describe these delightful folks, who dance for joy at our deaths until someone points out they're being taped. Instead, let's call them what they are: "Other Arabs From The Same General Area Who Are In Deep Denial About Never Being Able To Accomplish Anything In Life And Would Rather Wrap Themselves In The Seductive Melodrama Of Eternal Struggle And Death." I know that's a bit unwieldy to expect to see on CNN. How about this, then: "Adjacent Jew-Haters."

Okay, so the Adjacent Jew-Haters want their own country. Oops, just one more thing. No, they don't. They could've had their own country any time in the last thirty years, especially two years ago at Camp David. But if you have your own country, you have to have traffic lights and garbage trucks and Chambers of Commerce, and, worse, you actually have to figure out some way to make a living. That's no fun. No, they want what all the other Jew-Haters in the region want: Israel. They also want a big pile of dead Jews, of course-that's where the real fun is-but mostly they want Israel.

Why? For one thing, trying to destroy Israel-or "The Zionist Entity" as their textbooks call it-for the last fifty years has allowed the rulers of Arab countries to divert the attention of their own people away from the fact that they're the blue-ribbon most illiterate, poorest, and tribally backward on God's Earth, and if you've ever been around God's Earth, you know that's really saying something. It makes me roll my eyes every time one of our pundits waxes poetic about the great history and culture of the Muslim Mideast. Unless I'm missing something, the Arabs haven't given anything to the world since Algebra, and, by the way, thanks a hell of a lot for that one.

Chew this around and spit it out: Five hundred million Arabs; five million Jews. Think of all the Arab countries as a football field, and Israel as a pack of matches sitting in the middle of it. And now these same folks swear that if Israel gives them half of that pack of matches, everyone will be pals. Really? Wow, what neat news. Hey, but what about the string of wars to obliterate the tiny country and the constant din of rabid blood oaths to drive every Jew into the sea? Oh, that? We were just kidding.

My friend Kevin Rooney made a gorgeous point the other day: Just reverse the numbers. Imagine five hundred million Jews and five million Arabs. I was stunned at the simple brilliance of it. Can anyone picture the Jews strapping belts of razor blades and dynamite to themselves? Of course not. Or marshaling every Fiber and force at their disposal for generations to drive a tiny Arab state into the sea? Nonsense. Or dancing for joy at the murder of innocents? Impossible. Or spreading and believing horrible lies about the Arabs baking their bread with the blood of children? Disgusting.

No, as you know, left to themselves in a world of peace, the worst Jews would ever do to people is debate them to death.

I'm not going to pretend that I know everything that's going on in the Middle East with anyone including Israel or the Palestinians but who is being anti-semantic here?

Nina you have to go to the main page of the forum you want to start a new thread in. Hence if you want it in this forum you will go here.........http://www.lapbandtalk.com/f80/.......new thread will be at the top left of this forum.......

And your anti-Semite hate? Please answer for it. You post on another thread about how you hate being stereotyped but yet you follow suit with anti-Semite posts and a sick poem about dead baby's?

Don't preach to the choir when you need to clean up your own back yard.

I don't hate Muslims I just wish some would stand up and realize that pointing fingers at other faiths when there own extremist sect is killing so many innocents.

You say its lies well then prove it. Has Iran been killing people who are gays lately? Can woman vote yet in some middle eastern countries or even drive a car ? Be glad you are a convert in this country. Were all 19 9/11 hijackers Muslims? Are not suicide attacks on a daily base done by Muslims?

Prove it is all I ask.

I had to respond to this, were not all the IRA atrocities carried out by Catholics??? Yup but that doesnt mean that I label the whole faith.

Were not all KKK attacks carries out by white americans?? Yup but that doesnt mean that I think that all americans don a bdedsheet at the weekend.

The situation between Palestine and Israel is one that goes waaaay back and just for the record my dad is Jewish, yet he feels that what has been done to the palestinians is outrageous. He is JEWISH not an Israeli, and there is a big difference between the two!!!! Just because you critisise the actions of a government does not mean that you are attacking someones faith. You might want to read up on the Balfour declaration

The Balfour Declaration of 1917 (dated November 2, 1917) was a classified formal statement of policy by the British government on the partitioning of the Ottoman Empire in the aftermath of World War I.

The letter stated the position, agreed at a British Cabinet meeting on October 31, 1917, that the British government supported Zionist plans for a National home for the Jewish people within Palestine‎ with the condition that nothing should be done which might prejudice the rights of existing communities there

Hmmm do you notice the bit about the palestinians already living there? The problem is you see that the British were giving away something that didnt belong to them - a really bad habit that we had at the time of 'the empire' and for which I apologise unreservedly.

I would be pretty peeved if someone gave away my home too.

Dont use words like Anti-semetic when someone is just voicing an opinion, I actually think that it distracts from real predjudice if you scream racist every time you hear something that you dont like/agree with.

I'm assuming that you want to post in the Suggestions, Feedback, and Questions forum, to have them reset your password or something. Here is where the button is located in Rants and Raves. It's in the same location in the other forums.
