I am sorry to say, but this comes awfully close to expressing my personal feelings on this topic. I keep trying to tell myself that not all Muslims are "bad guys", and I know that is true, but this kind of a historical perspective makes it more and more difficult to be "understanding." I don't have any solutions, at least none that are politically correct, but this situation is awfully frustrating ... and dangerous!
"People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
this is mostly bullshit. actually, its quite sickening bull shit.
every muslim in the west is outraged by the majority of these incidents. as for the easten muslims, well we never get to hear what their response is do we?
all you mean to say is NO FUNDAMENTALIST OUTRAGE.
the truth seems to be that in the usa muslim press like al-jazeera is pretty much banned. this is called PROPAGANDA!!! you are believing exactly what THEY WANT YOU TO BELIEVE.
also, you forget that some countries have different belief structures and different ideas of what is right and wrong.
it is these differing philosophical ideas of what is right and wrong between countries (especially usa & islam) that causes so much tension.
most (but not all) in the states are just too fucking thick to see this, let alone get their tiny inbred red-neck heads around such an idea as different concepts as right and wrong.
i love the way you bring up a palestinian incident. how about this...
israel create ghetto, cut off water supplies, murder children, bulldoze communities - no jewish outrage.
does this mean all jews are shits? no. i know that many jews ARE outraged by the acts of isreal, but do you get to hear about them? NO BECAUE IT WOULD BE AGAINST ISRAEL & BUSHS AGENDA!!!
