Reader comment on item: Islamism 2.0
in response to reader comment: some more muslims diatribe

Submitted by the Grand Infidel of Kaffiristan (Australia), Dec 7, 2009 at 03:17

Mr Havas, still smarting, continues:

"ı dont expect any one of you to change your minds about islam. "
Islam demonstrates it is incapable of change in the race of overwhelming evidence of its need for change That is your problem.

".and nobody must expect we change our opinions about christian imperialism."
There is no 'Christian imperialism'. There are however more open and technologically advanced societies.

" we only write here to show how the things are seen from our point of view. you show some verses from kuran to prove that islam is evil "
Thankyou for acknowledging that fact. You are one of the few muslims I have come across that has even hinted there might be a problem inside islam..

'and also put the facts that some people do terrorism in the name of islam."
Why is it left up to infidels to do that? Why have not muslms been pro-active in that respect rather than leaving it up to other peoplke to point out the obvious?

"...but ı get extremely angry to be accused being a potential terrorist or child raper. and none of you can understand that any muslim can sincerely hate these things. "

Any sane person knows where to draw the line in regards to sick behaviour, the insane - by definition - do not.

"...you think we are all the same and our brains are washed from islam "

where have they been washed?

"...and ı think your brains are washed from ugly imperializm. "

success breeds success.Muslim societies for the most part are not succesful in most of the areas where western societies excel. Better to have brains washed in a successful environment than an unsuccessful one don't you think? Otherwise we'd all be complaining like you do.

"you cant imagine that any muslim can be a vegetarian for example "

Why shouldn't muslims be vegetarian? If you have successfully weaned yourself away from the barbaric ritual slaughter of lambs at Ed - you have my support.

"....or defend the planets climate or think anything positive. "

That's a silly accusation - Westerners have no monopoly on the perception of climate change. Even though they did invent the instrumentation to measure it. Hopefully you do have lots of positie thoughts. Otherwise I'm sure can become quite miserable. Perception is EVERYTHING.

"..everything is only for white racist people. "

Why bring race or skin colour into it?

"......you can criticize yourselfs "

Yes - we do do that - that's one of the benefits of a free and open press - something Muslims can learn from.

"....and everything but we cant criticize you."

But you do. In fact it's an incessant tirade - how often do we hear from the muslim world - 'death to America, Israel germany, Denmark, Britain - and I suppose now Switzerland.' ? Switzerland is now being criticised by muslims and a few western brown-nosers not for banning the construction of mosques - but for banning only the further constructions of minarets. Of course the hypocrisy of Muslims now shines through - where reports are coming in from Pakistan to Turkey about how difficult or impossible it is to build a church or synagogue in those countries. Putting a minaret on a mosque is like putting a spire on a church which does not have one. But in these countries the very construction of churches is banned. Can't you admit to this hypocrisy - even in your own country? Another case of Muslims demanding rights they deny others.

"ı love islam very very much and ım happy with it. "

Nothing ventured, nothing gained. You'll never ever know what lies outside it if you don't stick your head out and ask. Seek and you will find. But, it's comfortable in staying in the known world isn't it?

"ı also think if west makes mosques there we must let the churches or synagogues built in our country."

I should have read ahead. At last - you admit the hypocrisy.

"ı never aprove saudi or iran kind of life ,ı condemn taliban and al qaida. any terrorist in this world.regardless what he claims about islam ,he can not represent me. "

You are correct and it's good to see yiu expressing an independent opinion.

why our so called islamic government help america fight against taliban in afghanistan. we have soldiers there. you never think.

"...but ı dont consider palestein fighting for freedom are terrorists.not the same thing."

Hamas are a bunch of lowlife thugs on a mision from allah - supplied by Iran and determined to kill as many Jews as possible. . The most succinct statement on that matter is 'If the Arabs lay down their arms there will be peace; if Isael lays down their arms there will be mass slaughter.'

ı like many things in west. ı hate many things in west. " western muslims have no problem accomodating to life in the west - so yours must not be an uncommon attitude. In fact most would be kicking and screaming if made to return to their islamic paradises.

"ı like not too many things in muslim countries.because they are not free . they are under the occupation of west or islamic fachism."

Which Muslim countries are under the occupation of western fascism - i.e ruled by western powers? Why are sharia based socieites prone to devolve into fascism?

"so this means we need to copy the good parts of western systems without losing our culture. what is wrong with this"

You have to - otherwise you will not survive.

"america cannot be responsible from venezuelas politics because they are both christians. a turk can not be responsible from libyas politics only because we share the same religon.no?"

You might have noticed that Russia and the west have been at loggerheads over the last 60 years - despite being ostensibl Christian societies.. religion and politics are two different things.

"so to catagorise the muslims as if all of them are second class people "

to put it bluntly - you have a second rate religion which stultifies your progress.

"is a typical imperialist politics. only when you are strong everything you say is correct. the correct method for a muslim must be peacefully work to pass the imperilists. so instead of wildly protesting the restrictions of mosque buildings in switzerland, our minister offered the arabs to take their money off from the swiss banks and bring it to turkish banks. why they dont do it. because they are imperialist's slaves. and these slaves can follow such kind of islam ."

Should westerners freeze all trade with muslims (oh, and throw in the enormous amount of aid) because churches and synagogues are not allowed to be built (not just the spires remember!) in muslim countries?

In any case the amount of trade Switzerland does with arab countries is probably quite minimal. What are they going to do with precision machinery and fine chocolates?

"we have long way to go, but some day we will start to write the history again. ı really believe this."
Make sure first you have something worth writing about.
