Richard Rubenstein - Understanding "Islamophobia"

[selfsenter]

u wana understand islamophobia?

9/11. Thats it.

Never had anyone came and told me my religion is evil until 9/11 came about and the propaganda machine started churning

This guy has never read anything by Al Qaeda, clearly. Eg, in the "Al Qaeda Reader" it sets out very clearly their thinking of why they fly planes into buildings.

[Vierotchka]

What a load of undiluted hateful bollocks!

[MrCropper]

Rubenstein wrote an excellent book, "Aristotle's Children" but the last 7 pages were pure academic tripe. The 290 pages before that refute everything he asserted in this video.

Rubenstein, I conclude, has virtually no integrity.

I totally dont agree with this terrorism shit.. why are they killing their own people? What good can come out of this? Being a muslim.., I feel ashamed at times of sayin what I am. The news bashes us left right and center but can you blame them? I just want people to know please dont judge us on the people in slums in these 3rd world countries have to say regarding religion. Why is religion even a topic.. damn., Makes me wonder.. is there really a god?..damn i need a beer

@triplesixinthisbitch I don't think it's "Islamophobic" to point out the fact that certain of the terrorists actions are in fact condoned in the Qur'an and that they believe based on the Qur'an that Allah will reward them in the afterlife for their actions.

[TheMathGuy]

@triplesixinthisbitch Now you may disagree with their interpretation of the Qur'an, but it simply isn't rational to turn a blind eye to the fact that their actions were in fact influenced/determined by their beliefs, or that the Qur'an, the Bible, and in fact the holy books of many world religions--seem to condone/recommend some pretty awful things!

you know you all are like someone who invents a story about a lost treasure and then goes looking for it with all your comments that you are not islamophobic followed by islamophobic remarks, you know the media, bush rumsfield ,cheney and blair all lied about iraq can't you grasp that the lies about islam began after 2003 so that you would support the war or do you think that the same politicians and tv channels who lied to you have honourable intentions in feeding you distorted information now

The Qur'an says that the closest people to the Muslims are the Christians.

Please type on YouTube: another message from Iraq to the west and listen to the message carefully. Wake up people, we are not your enemy...Peace

[mlmbrowser]

Where did you get your facts that Islam asks Muslims to kill anyone who is NOT Muslim? From your media of course. Did it occur to you people to verify their claims? The Qur'an says fight those who FIGHT you, not those who don't do you harm...You guys don't use your brains, unfortunately you let others think for you. Please do some research.

Horrible video. The question that isn't being asked but is the most important question is what are the fears based on? With regards to islamophobia the fear is based on facts. Islam as a religion treats all non-believers as infidels who must be destroyed. Bush's fear was based on fiction - but as far as he was led to believe by Clinton's legacy administration (namely CIA director) they were facts too.

Thank You for confirming that Islam is satanic in it's core.  No surprise here.

[ZENMASTER02]

You are satanic to your core...people like you..where does this end???

It's a shame that having the surname Rubenstein doesn't allow you to see past the bullshit of "Islamaphobia". Islam is a religion, a belief system, not a people. If said I hated communism would I be a "commuphobe"? Absurd!

[DrCruel]

O ye of the Gang! Take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and relations; they are not of the Body, and will not look aside as we rob and kill their kindred. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them, and shall be robbed and killed as if one of them.

So who's killing thousands of Muslims a week with IEDs and beheadings? Remember, O kaffir, and be intimidated by the religion of peace.

YUSUFALI: O ye who believe! take not the Jews and the Christians for your friends and protectors: They are but friends and protectors to each other. And he amongst you that turns to them (for friendship) is of them.[TAKFIR] Verily Allah guideth not a people unjust. So who's "paraniod reality" is killing thousands of Muslims a week?
