schestowitzWell, you brought foreign policy into the discussion. I merely asked for clarification of your point, as I wondered if you were making a moral equivalency between the tyranny and terrorism of Islamic based governments and Islamic terror groups on one side and the western powers and their foreign policy on the other. That seems the implication in your statement:Jan 15 05:12

schestowitzI brought that in so you can see my juxtaposition of my previous satirical takes on your point of view. I can substitute everything you say about Muslims with Christian Caucasians and get the same general lazy rhetoric.Jan 15 05:13
schestowitzI eventually ended my sentence again with the emphasis on how you are tarring the actions of extremists on all Muslims, because I understand Islamophobia leaves a dent on ones ability at comprehension.Jan 15 05:13
schestowitzI sympathise with the victims of religious authorities. I actually help found a secular organization in my country to support victims of Islamic bodies in Malaysia, and most of them are Muslims themselves who cannot practice their more progressive brand of Islam in Malaysia.Jan 15 05:13
schestowitzI have met and worked with Muslims who run animal shelters and give up most of their money to feed dogs and cats. I have worked with Muslims who think nothing about charging nothing to help natives fight corporations and the government over land rights and freedom to practice their religion.Jan 15 05:13
schestowitzI have met a Muslim lawyer who devotes most of his legal career to championing human rights and secular freedom for everyone at great personal risk.Jan 15 05:13
schestowitzI have good Muslim friends who tell lascivious jokes and think nothing about sharing beer nor taking me out for a meal.Jan 15 05:13
schestowitzSo when you try to once again, attempt to excuse your Islamophobic screed about Muslims being responsible for the actions of extremists by throwing in an argument about Christian persecution - do know that I don't have only one Muslim friend as a reference of character, but a few busloads of them to remind me how wrong you people are.Jan 15 05:13
schestowitzIf you wish to apply such vindictive standards towards Muslims, you should have no issue with me judging all white Christians too by the actions of the CIA, NSA, GCHQ, and the nauseating display of pretentious patriotism for your respective armies' warcrimes.Jan 15 05:13
schestowitz"Jan 15 05:13
schestowitz"I do not think that all Muslims are responsible for the actions of their fellow believers. I know there are many good people who are Muslims. What I trying to say is that those who do these things are not a tiny minority that the politically correct media wish to be true. They make up a sizable percentage, and they are the ones in power in pretty much every Islamic country. I am Islamophobic of the power wielded by this "minority" Jan 15 05:14
schestowitzof up to 300 million fundamentalist Muslims - the weight of their actions on world events and history, and the thousands and thousands of deaths in the last 12 months alone, of the persecution of all other religions (including Muslims who do not share their more strict form of Islam) suffered at their hands - the hands of power. The masses of peaceful Muslims are not the ones driving world events, nor is the militant minority as Jan 15 05:14
schestowitzsmall as you wish it to be."Jan 15 05:14
schestowitz"Jan 15 05:14
schestowitzYou are now contradicting yourself. Your original paragraph was pretty clear that there were no distinctions from your point of view.Jan 15 05:14
schestowitz    To say they are the same is a false equivalence. Islam is the primary motivator of these acts. BBC reported that in November, over 5,000 people died at the hands of Islamic fighters, fighting for their view of Islam, killing mostly other Muslims. That violence spills over to non-Muslims too. You simply can't compare one Christian mad man to nearly daily reports of violent acts done in the name of Islam! To do so is Jan 15 05:14
schestowitzintellectually dishonest.Jan 15 05:14
schestowitzAnd some numbers which you literally admitted you pulled out of thin air. The kind which substantiates the evidence of a systemic hatred of Muslims over reasoned argument.Jan 15 05:14
schestowitz    Perhaps it isn't the majority of Muslims who think this way, but out of 1.2 billion Muslims, somewhere between 15% to 25% are "radicalized". That means 180,000,000 to 300,000,000 radicalized Muslims. At the top end, that is near the population of the USA. That is pretty significant! I'm not sure I can hear your pleas over their roar.Jan 15 05:14
schestowitzBut at least you are dialling back on the hate speech a bit.Jan 15 05:14
schestowitz    I do not think that all Muslims are responsible for the actions of their fellow believers. I know there are many good people who are Muslims.Jan 15 05:14
schestowitzThis isn't suppose to be a race to see which religious faction commits the most warcrimes. If you are enlightened enough then you should see that all crimes should be judged by the actions of their perpetrators and supporters. Condemn ISIS. Condemn the Charlie Hebdo terrorists. But if you are truly sincere about the end of terrorism, then condemn the bombing of the NAACP office in Colorado, Israeli murder of civilians, and other Jan 15 05:14
schestowitzterrorist crimes not conducted by Muslims too. I don't have the mental wherewithal to expand your definition of terrorism, nor teach you proper assignment of blame without bringing down an entire religious group. That is something you will just have to do for yourself from now onwards.Jan 15 05:14

schestowitz"Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzHe makes some interesting arguments, but lets not delude ourselves. Anders Breivik was undoubtedly an evil man. He did terrible things. But they were not motivated solely on his religion. One mad man on a largely politically motivated rampage does not equal near daily atrocities committed worldwide by religiously motivated evil men and women, acts done in the name of Islam. To say they are the same is a false equivalence. Islam is Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzthe primary motivator of these acts. BBC reported that in November, over 5,000 people died at the hands of Islamic fighters, fighting for their view of Islam, killing mostly other Muslims. That violence spills over to non-Muslims too. You simply can't compare one Christian mad man to nearly daily reports of violent acts done in the name of Islam! To do so is intellectually dishonest.Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzMany say this does not represent true Islam. Well, the terrorists say it does. So do the top leaders in many Islamic countries. Who do you want us to believe, and why? The radicals call western Muslims non-believers too. Are western Muslims just marginal believers the same way most "Christians" don't really understand or follow their religion?Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzLiterally ever single week we see major headlines about Islamic violence. Every week. This time it was France and Africa. Middle East is always a mess. Recently it was in Canada, of all places. Something happens frequently in the US and places in Europe. Every week. Kind of makes it hard to ignore.Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzPerhaps it isn't the majority of Muslims who think this way, but out of 1.2 billion Muslims, somewhere between 15% to 25% are "radicalized". That means 180,000,000 to 300,000,000 radicalized Muslims. At the top end, that is near the population of the USA. That is pretty significant! I'm not sure I can hear your pleas over their roar.Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzAnd these radicals are not just nobodies in the backwoods who occasionally get out with a gun. Some of them are the leaders and generals in some very powerful regional powers. these are radicals with warplanes, navies, armies, terror cells. In a world where Islam is the major force and motivator in many nation's governments, it doesn't manifest itself in the way you wish it to be. Iran. Hamas. Hezbollah. Saudi Arabia. Isis. Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzAfghanistan. Pakistan. Indonesia. Etc. Etc. Do you see a trend? Do you see a common denominator? I do. I'm not sure how your view of Islam is relevant in a world with headlines to the contrary.Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzDismiss me "Islamophobic" if you want. I guess I am. But I am not Islamophobic out of ignorance (as you may suppose) - but out of knowledge of how Islam manifests itself in the countries in which it gains control or significant influence. I fear their growth and influence on a international level. I fear another people group falling under the black flag of Islam, just as I feared the spread of the red communist flag in my youth. To Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzdeny the connection is like western socialists and communists saying they are peaceful, yet every communist country in history have been some of the worst, most oppressive places to live. Western communists talk about the communist worker utopia if only they could be given the chance to govern, yet the countries that were/are under the communist jack boot are murderous hell holes. Over 150,000,000 died in the last hundred years Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzbecause of their own communist governments. The ideal of communism is irrelevant in the face of the reality of communism and how it has manifested itself. Likewise, the ideal of Islam is irrelevant in the face of the reality of Islam and how it has manifested itself.Jan 12 08:59
schestowitzWhen I hear of leaders in Iran wanting a nuclear bomb and other things to bring about the Islamic Mahdi - the end time prophetic leader who will conquer the world for Islam - I fear. I fear because we are not talking about a guy with a gun. We are talking about millions with guns. And tanks. And planes. Guys who were willing to send little boys to clear minefields for their brave soldiers, religiously motivating these boys to die byJan 12 08:59
schestowitzstepping on mines. And these guys want a nuclear bomb! During the cold war were people who stood against communism bigoted? Racist? Intolerant? Those arguments don't even make sense, nor do they in the face of Islamic fundamentalism. We need to set aside the delusion of political correctness and identify the problem with clarity. The Cold War could not have been won for the side of freedom without clearly realizing that communism Jan 12 09:00
schestowitzwas the problem. The same goes for the current worldwide conflict against Islamic fundamentalism.Jan 12 09:00

schestowitzI have met and worked with Muslims who run animal shelters and give up most of their money to feed dogs and cats. I have worked with Muslims who think nothing about charging nothing to help natives fight corporations and the government over land rights and freedom to practice their religion.Jan 15 05:16
schestowitzI have met a Muslim lawyer who devotes most of his legal career to championing human rights and secular freedom for everyone at great personal risk.Jan 15 05:16
schestowitzI have good Muslim friends who tell lascivious jokes and think nothing about sharing beer nor taking me out for a meal.Jan 15 05:16
schestowitzSo when you try to once again, attempt to excuse your Islamophobic screed about Muslims being responsible for the actions of extremists by throwing in an argument about Christian persecution - do know that I don't have only one Muslim friend as a reference of character, but a few busloads of them to remind me how wrong you people are.Jan 15 05:16
schestowitzIf you wish to apply such vindictive standards towards Muslims, you should have no issue with me judging all white Christians too by the actions of the CIA, NSA, GCHQ, and the nauseating display of pretentious patriotism for your respective armies' warcrimes.Jan 15 05:16
schestowitz"Jan 15 05:16
schestowitz"I do not think that all Muslims are responsible for the actions of their fellow believers. I know there are many good people who are Muslims. What I trying to say is that those who do these things are not a tiny minority that the politically correct media wish to be true. They make up a sizable percentage, and they are the ones in power in pretty much every Islamic country. I am Islamophobic of the power wielded by this "minority" Jan 15 05:16
schestowitzof up to 300 million fundamentalist Muslims - the weight of their actions on world events and history, and the thousands and thousands of deaths in the last 12 months alone, of the persecution of all other religions (including Muslims who do not share their more strict form of Islam) suffered at their hands - the hands of power. The masses of peaceful Muslims are not the ones driving world events, nor is the militant minority as Jan 15 05:17
schestowitzsmall as you wish it to be."Jan 15 05:17
schestowitz"Jan 15 05:17
schestowitzYou are now contradicting yourself. Your original paragraph was pretty clear that there were no distinctions from your point of view.Jan 15 05:17
schestowitz    To say they are the same is a false equivalence. Islam is the primary motivator of these acts. BBC reported that in November, over 5,000 people died at the hands of Islamic fighters, fighting for their view of Islam, killing mostly other Muslims. That violence spills over to non-Muslims too. You simply can't compare one Christian mad man to nearly daily reports of violent acts done in the name of Islam! To do so is Jan 15 05:17
schestowitzintellectually dishonest.Jan 15 05:17
schestowitzAnd some numbers which you literally admitted you pulled out of thin air. The kind which substantiates the evidence of a systemic hatred of Muslims over reasoned argument.Jan 15 05:17
schestowitz    Perhaps it isn't the majority of Muslims who think this way, but out of 1.2 billion Muslims, somewhere between 15% to 25% are "radicalized". That means 180,000,000 to 300,000,000 radicalized Muslims. At the top end, that is near the population of the USA. That is pretty significant! I'm not sure I can hear your pleas over their roar.Jan 15 05:17
schestowitzBut at least you are dialling back on the hate speech a bit.Jan 15 05:17
schestowitz    I do not think that all Muslims are responsible for the actions of their fellow believers. I know there are many good people who are Muslims.Jan 15 05:17
schestowitzThis isn't suppose to be a race to see which religious faction commits the most warcrimes. If you are enlightened enough then you should see that all crimes should be judged by the actions of their perpetrators and supporters. Condemn ISIS. Condemn the Charlie Hebdo terrorists. But if you are truly sincere about the end of terrorism, then condemn the bombing of the NAACP office in Colorado, Israeli murder of civilians, and other Jan 15 05:17
schestowitzterrorist crimes not conducted by Muslims too. I don't have the mental wherewithal to expand your definition of terrorism, nor teach you proper assignment of blame without bringing down an entire religious group. That is something you will just have to do for yourself from now onwards.Jan 15 05:17
schestowitzHave a good day.Jan 15 05:17
