Why doesnt the mainstream news say the details.... when i read CNN ..i was like wtf is "suspect in religious clothing and ready to go to war".... when a christian priest does a murder, the media goes all crazy identfying how he is christian and religious etc http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/07/16/nj.cops.shot/index.html#cnnSTCText but after some more investigation this artilce mentions the name of the suspects which are muslim and that she was wearing a big green robe and scarf aka "Burka and Hijab" http://www.nj.com/hudson/index.ssf/2009/07/autopsies_19_bullets_recovered.html then this article states that all he did was listen to islamic radio and QURAN teachings http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5h9mwIa4-cLKES55p9tMCUA0J4U4QD99GGE080 my only beef is when the media isnt' fair....why do they mention when it is a christian or jew when they dont need to , but in this case, he was extreme muslim convert, and didnt want to release that
Because the frustration that muslims are facing coupled with their religious laws of justice is a obvious powder keg that anti religions are at bad odds with a force like that.
It is not so much a number issue but premise issues. The "throwing in the anti religion card" aspect. Anti religious groups are at difficult odds at the start.
well i have friends in media, and whenever they mention the word islam in a factual way associated with anything bad, the writers get death threats whereas if they talk about other religions, no one has time to send them emails
Because the media can't talk about Islam objectively they just try not to talk about it at all. If they gave into death threats and threats of violence they'd only be able to talk about the "good" of Islam and they'd be seen as propagandists for Islam.
I'm gonna double this. I dunno what kinda rocks you guys are living under. There are at least 72 types of different muslim groups. The midea simply outlines a criminal as a 'muslim' and doesn't do enough research to see which group the criminal belongs to.
Yes they are. In the same way and to the extent that they were also anti-Nazism. That's to say, it, as an ideology, generally behaves in a way which makes it logical and practicle to oppose it. I mean, Muslims on this forum seem to be oblivious to the absolutely disgustingly horrrendious things done in the name of this so called "religion of peace".
It's back and forth and done on purpose for marketing reasons I used to work for major news corporations in Washington D.C.
We live in a psychotic politically correct world that ignores the painfully obvious and continues to think that just maybe this next generation can somehow change basic human nature.
Maybe infect they were not Muslim or they actually did not commited crime. Media likes showing whole Muslims as terrorists. They just label "the terrorist Muslim". It is enough. according to them all Muslim womans wear a burka and carry a bomb uinside of their clothes and all Muslim husbands beat their wives.
If I say anything remotely close to the truth about the muslims in the US, I would be banned (like that would really matter to me). We live in a PC world of no-speech that will soon explode into social disobedience and maybe even revolution. The USA is not soft hearted like the radical libs elsewhere. We are not going to put up with this nonsense for long.
ROFL... Say what you want to say openly. Everyone does that when the targets are Muslims. You know, knowing they are Muslims gives you a free hand to push all limits. They're different than you anyway... They look different, they talk a different language, they dress differently... this makes it very easy to create a barrier, an us-vs-them mentality... its so much easier to demonize them... All the best to you for your so-called revolution.
Real men in the USA do not easily forget the World Trade Center bombings of 2001. That was an act of terrorism against the USA from MUSLIMS. Our lax immigration laws are the prime culprit, but regular folk just don't go flying airplanes into buildings.
What is the definition of Muslim? In Islam killing civilians is definitely not allowed. So A Muslim cannot be terrorist a terrorist cannot be Muslim. I don't care how they call themselves.
Real men in the USA do not easily forget how the US government LIED about the Gulf of Tonkin incident to wage war against Vietnamese and Cambodians, killing and injuring millions of people. Real men in the USA do not easily forget how the US government, in collusion with the British government, kidnapped an entire population of Diego Garcia and deported the native Chagossian population to far away islands, only to use that island as a US military base. (1973) Real men in the USA do not easily forget how a decade of US sanctions on Iraq resulted in the death of half a million Iraqi children during that period. Real men in the USA do not easily forget how the US bullied Latin American countries into illegal submission, supporting military action against entire populations, supporting the Nicaragua contras, & other military dictators, which explains their current hostility towards the United States government. Real men in the USA do not easily forget that Saddam was a US ally, and almost every dictator in the Middle East is supported by the United States government. Iran was a democracy in 1953, until the CIA deposed democratically elected leader of Iran Mosaddeq.
