Muslim does not equal terrorist
 

As I am sure we can all agree religious belief does not equal inherent threat, terrorists are war mongers that have forsaken any right to claim their actions can be in the name of anything other than pathetic, inhumane worthlessness.

This article could use a little more exposure.

Cynical and proud of it.

about as insightful as saying the moon isnt a balloon

That's right, however it doesn't take away form the fact that most active terrorists at the moment are Muslim, just like back in the day not all Irish people were terrorists but most active terrorists were Irish, so I don't see the need to sweep it under the carpet :umm2:

:clap1:

And? what difference does that make? , should I substitute Catholic for Irish would that make the analogy easier to understand? So because there are billions of Muslims some of theme can't be terrorists I don't get your point at all? Why can't we say it, we could say Irish terrorists, no one batted an eyelid

how many?

For all the Muslim ranting we have on this site, I thought it only pertinent to give this article more exposure.

Do you really believe Muslim terrorists news is swept under the carpet?

The reason I posted this article is because just about everything Muslims do and say against these murdering scumbags is studiously ignored by the media, but they were always anxious to give exposure to monsters like Anjem Choudary (who represents around 200 nutters) until he was locked up.

ISIS fully believe that they are following Islam and that others are wrong. The problem with believing is a fake deity is that you can interpretate the religion any way you want

The old "well they are not real muslims" is like the true scotsman fallacy

really i didn't know this lol :laugh: :joker:

Well Islam is a spectrum.Terrorists are on the fringes of that spectrum.They're still muslim.
It's true that muslim doesn't equal terrorist but terrorist usually equals muslim.

Sure DR
but Extreme Isis Muslim's are the Terrorists
that matter to France and the World

This isn't about what ISIS is or what the Muslim faith represents; its about Muslim involvement in an effort to condemn ISIS. I know this doesn't sit well with some of you but for once can you just try to have a little understanding and compassion.

On that note, I'm going to work.

If you take a look at the FBI's list of most wanted terrorists you will see they're mostly "Muslim".

Most people can understand that not all Muslims are terrorists but that a substantial number of terrorists are Muslim.

Yes I've seen that posted on the forum numerous times, as DR said there are literally billions of Muslims therefore if you inject some perspective it's not even relative.

We did say Irish terrorist but what was the history behind it? If ever there is terror or destabilisation there we are.
That's not anti British or an exaggeration, it's a fact...an uncomfortable one but a fact nevertheless.

It's been posted numerous times because apparently it doesn't sink in. What's the percentage of those "billions of Muslims" who are sympathetic to the terrorists?

This has been posted several times too... so don't click on it if you find it tedious.


Like I said... not all Mulslims are terrorists but a significant number of terrorists are Muslim.

Islam and its unreformed state is wide open and always will be to extremism


Just ask any Muslim what the penalty for apostasy is

What an obnoxious woman, her monologue does not address the issue raised by the lady in the audience, what does it achieve?

If, and this is a big if,there were as many Muslims as could fill America hell bent on the destruction of the west then where are they? There have been over many years the odd disjointed attack that in the west has come from 'home grown' terrorists or converts.

If diplomacy is not the answer and conflict is the only recourse then that would only be viable if this 25% of which she speaks were in the same place... but they are not are they? (if they exist that is)
Those who are experiencing the affects of conflict in the concentrated areas of focus are predominantly the peaceful, how is this justified?

Every time I see it I'm in awe of her ability to puff her trumpet for 3+ minutes and not only fail to answer the question... but not even vaguely acknowledge the question in the first place. Which was;

"My question is how can we fight an ideological war with weapons? How can we ever end this thing if you don't address it ideologically."

Angry Lady decides to imagine that this lady's main point was that most Muslims are peaceful. It wasn't. She even said my question is. She had a very valid question. The answer of course being that you cannot fight an ideology with guns and bombs. But angry ranty lady doesn't want to admit that gradual diplomacy and embracing, rather than demonising, the majority of the Muslim population is the only permanent way to fight Islamic terrorism no matter how angry you happen to feel about the situation, and so she completely dodges the question and vents. And gets a standing ovation. Don't go on a question panel if you don't want to answer questions :facepalm:.

As a country we should be going round and closing mosques and educating children at schools that ALL GODS do not exist and teaching them the very best scientific peer reviewed knowledge we can

Systematically tackle this cancer of superstition at the root

Frankly, I didn't expect either of you to do anything but disagree and even call her "obnoxious" (maybe find out about her background before you call her names). Her message was that the silent majority are irrelevant. Surely that was quite evident?

The Muslim woman - an American citizen - asked a loaded question in the wrong place and got an answer that she - and people who feel the same way she feels - didn't like and so pretend not to understand.

It was evident. It wasn't an answer to the question asked, though.

She asked the question; "My question is how can we fight an ideological war with weapons? How can we ever end this thing if you don't address it ideologically."

And got an "answer" to a completely different question, or rather, a rant about a completely separate topic.

Do you think she answered the question? Honestly?


Q: "How can you fight a global ideological issue with weapons?"

A: "THE SILENT MAJORITY ARE IRRELEVANT!!"
