    Sure :rolleyes: You can read minds now, huh? Trust me, I'm not a racist. And I don't accuse people of such when I'm running out of arguments. You should be ashamed of yourself trolling into this thread and putting the blame on those who actually want to find some solutions. Anyone can give political speeches. Wake up and realize how we are hated. But of course, you like to justify the hatred and criticise the ones who you are openly allowed to. Why don't you go into the Middle East and make a difference there? You wouldn't last for a minute. Instead you bash the efforts of those who help you live in freedom. Seriously dude ... this is above your head. Leave the thread before the others wake up and have their way with you ;)

    Well now I see where you're coming from -- and I apologize for trying to explain myself to you; obviously your "education" comes directly from Fox news. Really sad too that you actually believe "terror" is born of Islam and that the current administration is preventing attacks on this country.

    You are so out of touch with truth and reality that you are a liability to yourself. The criminal administration that you undoubtedly admire are the very perps responsible for the terror attacks and wanton murders -- wake up before you find yourself in an internment camp holding your W sticker.

    I think I know what your problem is. As long as something does't happen right in front of your eyes or your own backyard, it doesn't exist. Am I right? It's so much easier for you to criticise America rather than examine other societies poisened by Islam. It's so far away, so as far as you are concerned, there is nothing wrong over there.

    For your information professor, the U.S. historically never had an enemy in the Middle East until the illegal state of Israel was created and then blindly supported by Americans. If anyone hates the people of America, it's because the traitors calling themselves our "leaders" have sold out to Israeli interests and are using our troops to murder Arabs.

    Help me live in freedom? How in the hell does murdering innocent people in another country help me live in freedom? "Dude", you are brain damaged beyond repair and I'm through wasting my time discussing anything with anyone so disgraceful.

    Those who voted 'No' are mostly Muslims themselves. Obviously they aint gonna admit it.

    In My opinion, A religion cant be violent...its people who follow the religion..

    And Its sad to see that people use religion to cover their deeds..and Islam has highest no. of people like this...

    Yeah, and guys like SEO Tutor sit somewhere in Kansas and assume that everyone else in the world must be as civilized as we are. Send him somewhere to the Middle East, drop him off and wish him good luck. He'll be crawling into the next US Embassy crying and begging to get back.

    Maybe a religion cannot technically be violent because it is inanimate, a set of ideas and rules.

    But if it calls for the elimination of others.....

    Nazism in that case is not violent only the Nazis themselves were violent.

    I wonder why we don't hold such respect for Nazis as we do for Muslims? We are careful not to offend Muslims as we go about our business of criticising Islam.

    Shouldn't we be careful to not offend Nazis in the same manner?

    Nazi ideas and Islamic ideas are so similar it's frightening.

    We could post many similarities.

    If Nazis had hijacked the 9/11 jets, we all know President Bush and others would not be holding press conferences afterwards extolling how peaceful Nazis really were.

    Hmmmm....

    Anyone with any semblance of a historical education knows that Christianity is the most violent religion. However, anyone with common sense also understands that religions aren't violent; people are. However, it's empirically verifiable that white Christians have most often committed acts of violence in the name of god.

    Islam teaches peace and love. The minority of so-called "Islamic" terrorists who claim to work for the Muslims' God, are the analogue of the KKK members who claim to work for the Christian god... Or, George Bush claiming to work for such a god.

    Religion is an excuse violent people use to justify their violence. Religion is not the cause of violence.

    The irony, of course, is that both Christians and Muslims (and Jews) believe in the same god.

    Most of them just repeat stuff they've heard somewhere. Let's face it: liberal blah blah does sound good at times. It's easy for the uneducated and gullible to fall into the trap.

    It explains the attitudes of our Muslim members who can't handle free speech.

    Over the last few months Shiite and Sunni Muslims have reportedly killed one another to the tune of about 3,000/month in Iraq alone. Not one Islamic person of leadership or stature has said this is stupid. Stop. Not one source.

    Looks like prominant powerful leaders of Islam don't give any value to any human lives these days.

    Individual members of Islam, primarily those who have been somewhat "Westernized" speak out against this stuff. Actually at times their lives are threatened. By who? Members of Islam and often leaders.

    Seems violent to me!

    If a country is in the middle of a war then things generally will 'seem violent'.

    About 70 years ago a completely different set of countries 'seemed violent'. I bet you thought Irish people ‘seemed violent’ a few years back.

    86% of all the murders committed in the UK last year were by Christians - oh jeez Christians seem violent!!!! omg!!

    You guys have been completely fooled by your sensationalist media reports. You watch TV and think OMG!! These Muslims seem violent!!

    You probably think something like ‘1 in 10 Muslims die whilst performing a terrorist act’.

    Ignorant as f*ck.
