I don't buy it - it is a made up word by people with an agenda, a PC word and it is ridiculous - most of all it is Discriminatory. It is about as one-sided as you can get in my opinion.
There is nothing special about Islam that entitles it to its own special word. It is simply a religion criticised by many for its discrimination of others including women and other religions. You cannot force people to respect any religion. You cannot forbid criticism of any religion and you cannot stop the questioning of injustice because it is perpetrated in the name of religion. You can legislate against hate crimes but that has to apply to all including Islam.

You say there's nothing special about Islam that entitles it to its own world but we are the ones who invaded their world. What right did we have to invade these countries in the Middle East? who are we to play God?
Muslims have lived in this country for many generations and up until recently, they just went about their life unnoticed by us, just like the Hindu's and any other religion living over here.
Now, some of those Muslims (but very few) bomb us and terrorize us. Have you ever stopped for a moment and wondered why? Could it be because we bomb and terrorize them? Could it be because we invade and kill thousands of innocents? Could it be because we root out and destroy any assemblance of government and throw their countries into such horrific destruction? Could it be because we created the enemy that has killed so many of them and now threatens the West... ISIS. Could it be because we are trying to create new empires?
And before anyone suggests I'm excusing the terrorists over here, I'm not but neither am I excusing our government for allowing things to get to this.
We support Israel. We support the apartheid against Islam and we support one of the most barbaric countries on this earth... Saudi Arabia but everything else is up for grabs. Seek and destroy and fcuk the collateral damage.
I'm not interested in bad mouthing Muslims. The way the men treat the women has gone on throughout history so why choose now to discriminate? Muslims are hated because they are fleeing over here in great numbers. Muslims are hated because a few nutters have murdered our own people. Popular media are on the front line at driving this hate because it sells newspapers and whilst some of us just shake our heads and choose to ignore them, others hang off their every word.
We need to let go of the hate and start looking inwards. We need to understand what's gone wrong, how was this created and how can it cease. We need to blame the right people here... the powerful and not the powerless. |
