Chris, i too am a canadian..a born muslim canadian that is.. what is hate to you?..here let me simplify this for you...would you hate someone if you saw someone you loved or knew die by violence?..i dont think ull say no..u would hate...heres another thing...you dont know the history of the israel/palestine conflict...u watch your fox and cnn in the comfort of your overly priced living room, allowing you to make judgements based on the information coming from one source of right wing bullshit media...pack up your bags fly down to palestine..and see for yourself...the people demonstrating their hatred towards the zionists are respected by millions around the world, as you saw or i dont think you even knew about the demonstratons that took place in south america, europe, asia and africa all of them christains, jews(yes there were jews in the us) muslims, hindus all standing together with the muslims protesting...they were not insulting a man faith..as you put it "allah is a joke", which by the way translates to "God is a joke...

muslims are not standing in teh streets chanting death to moses or christ...they are saying israel stop the massacre!!!...you on the other hand support death, destruction etc...you know what forget it..lets talk about our beloved country..canada!!!..let me ask you this..if the native indians wanted you out would you leave?..if they said enough is enough and they started to fight back what would you do then?...think about it, your forefathers that came here killed, raped, destroyed a CIVILIZATION...where in history did the muslims ever do that???..your forefathers did that..what were your views on the whole oka crisis??...the white man wanted a golf course, and the disrespective canadian govt were in favor of the developers plans of a golf course to be constructed over burial grounds...wheres your sympathy?...

dont be naive chris, we muslims believe in peace and justice and if that means standing up with our fists in the air, and banners that depict groups such as hezbollah, who by chance are on the govt terrorist lists? whose lists?..NOT MINE!!! an organization that is loved by the people, but hated by the US govt..mmm? and you speak of democracy? mmmm...get your facts chris. wave those flags and banners and standing up to the zionist tyranny has nothing to do with islam, other than doing it peacefully, but this is a political stand nothing religious.. and heres a fact for you chris.. there are alot of ARAB CHRISTIANS..and they support hamas, hezbollah and want israel to stop the conflict...mmmmm? how does it feel that christians feel the same way muslims do?
