  • Truth is muslims extremists r only a echo of the sounds of western policy extremist..west kills mass in uniform..very few muslims fight in defensive and label them as terrorist...every muslim know who r the cause n force behind such muslims..

  • war on terror is fraud...

  • ASk yourself, did the peaceful germans matter once the Nazi regime was in place?

  • how true that mohamad has lose his one eye true raping his own daugther later on he became a his wife

  • Islam is basically WWMD. What Would MoHamMad Do. I don't know why we look for moderates or any type of "progressive" muslims when just asking WWMD will give exactly what islam is. In islam an apostate is KILLED. In islam a captive is RAPED. In islam you have 3 choices if you believe in any 1 god; Convert to islam or Agree to be a dhimmi (2nd class citizen with minimal rights if any) or Die. What's so hard about islam?
  • The problem with radicalism is there is not equally strong grass root movement from Muslims that support enlightenment values that transformed western society. The anti-western, anti-semitic propaganda is so prolific through out the middle east that the region is become more sympathetic to jihad movement every year. That leaves the responsibility to freedom loving Muslims in Europe and America to stand up. Lamentably, Muslims have not heard the call, but remain apologist instead of activist. 

  • This is the clash of civilizations, one side the most backward cult on the planet that produces nothing but; hate, death, destruction and stupidity.

    On the other side the side that produces, progress, freedom and democracy that made it possible that the world reached this.

    If both are equal than Cannibalism is a matter of taste.

  • Bollocks....

    We hate to be Criticized..

    We ignore to be invaded..

    Keeping quite and submitting everything please America..

    Islam teaches not to bow before Evil..

    America has proven to be Evil..

    Invading countries and Installing their own puppet..

    Keeping ppl in chaos..

    If being fair means Radical then

    We are Radical.

  • @sweetafghanboy2 : You gonna get what you hate most- its called Karma; I didn't see big riot against Talibans when two Buddha statues were blown up prior to US coalition invasion in 2001.

    Islam always had puppet rulers/regimes who proclaimed themselves as "holy." 50 Islamic majority countries are all failed states ! Earth would breathe easy once non-Muslims get rid of these scumbags; we have 7:1 advantage + technology that is not even in the mainstream media yet (you can't even imagine that) !

  • @Zeno1999

    Dude why is it that you guys hate our gutts ???

    Admit it we deny occupation and oppression.

    Why is it that your Govt always try to imply American Corporate lifestyle on us ???

  • @sweetafghanboy2 : Corporations are doing their business.

    Non-Muslims do not hate Muslims. They are the one who promoted human rights and many Muslims who live in the democracy of non-Muslims enjoy the equality and freedom. You understand what I'm talking about, don't you ?

    Where are those moderate Muslims when non-Muslims get killed in any of 50 Muslims countries to protest and express anti-government sentiments ?

  • @Zeno1999 well 1 million muslims in iraq youre democratic nations has killed them as for palestine afganistan so botom line we do not have problems with china or any other nation but these oil thiefes

    You'll also learn real meaning of Allah from your own Arabian scholars.

  • @Zeno1999 lolss You see when i say US install their own puppet that includes Corrupt Govt in our Countries. Your Fucken Economy runs on our Oil .. You should be begging us.. and by the way save your Technology because here is One true FACT. No power last forever Nor did the Roman Nor did the Persia Nor did the Mughol Nor did the Nazi,Russia, British and Nor will last USA.
  • @sweetafghanboy2 < If you have corruption in your people, its your job to fix that.

  • @sweetafghanboy2- If you going to give me list of empires that eventually died out then at least add :

    Khalifat > ended in 1600s; Osama BLaden's dream is to bring it back, lol.

    Arabian region doesn't have enough oil to supply industrial countries. World trade and barter system going to continue even if ordinary Muslim like you think otherwise. All countries are dependent on each other. Not far in the future, there is much cleaner technology coming that would make crude oil redundant.

  • @sweetafghanboy2

    you see

    Moderates are Corrupt at core.

    While who stand against are called Extremist in your Media.

  • 2- also there is the very slick, modern, positive directed version of Islam proposed by nasheed groups like, "Debu" of Turkey. very much into peace and harmony. ...if you look up Nasheed's, you will see a huge range of mentalities all preaching theyre version of Islam.

  • the whole society in Muslim world is changing fast! now Bahrain and Iran have metal bands! so does Turkey, Jordan, Egypt, Morocco, Lebanon, this element grows daily. they want no war. but they want changes to improve society. .......The 60's have come to the middle east. no turnin back now!

  • @acerb45666555 "they want no war. but they want changes to improve society. .......The 60's have come to the middle east. no turnin back now!" - Your words are comforting.... Hope you are right. :)

  • why are these people so dumb, they constantly talk about "jihad and holy war" when 1. They dont even understand the meaning of jihad and 2. They try saying we use holy war when the term isnt even mentioned in the Quran once!!!

  • What does Jihad mean then?

    And when the 7/7 bombers used the word in their vids, were they misunderstanding it as well? Does Osama misunderstand it? Whose definition should we use?

  • Jihad means "struggle." And Osama bin-Laden has zero credentials as a Muslim scholar or interpreter of Sharia. He is just a fanatic who happens to be rich.

  • I think when enough people use a word a certain way, that word has the meaning.

    The term Jihad is used by pretty much every Muslim terrorist. Therefore these guys can happily use it.

    Your argument is simply semantic bullshit.

  • No, their argument is semantic bullshit.

    Muslim terrorists do not speak for the whole of their faith, any more than right-wing, clinic bombing, war-mongering Christians speak for all Christianity. To let them define the terms is a kind of surrender.

  • So what if they don't speak for all the faith. It does not mean they speak for non of it. It also does not mean that the speakers here suggest it speaks for the whole religion. They have said nothing of the sort.

    If you want to fight the bismirching of Islam. Do away with those undertaking 'jihad' in your name. The people speaking here are not at fault.

  • I am an atheist, not a Muslim.

    Some of the speakers here are indeed saying the bin-Ladens speak for all Muslims. That is the whole question posed by the debate: "Islam is dominated by radicals."

    As for "doing with" radicals--is it every Christian's fault when some fanatic burns down a clinic? Do we blame all Christians for Josef Koni's LRA? No. But we do blame ALL Muslims for what ANY Muslim does.

  • No, you are wilfully misunderstanding. The clue is in the title. They are asking if Islam is 'dominated' by such activity. I have heard no commentator suggest that ALL Muslims are extreme.

    Your clinic example is fine. If commentators described the burning as a holy prerogative I would not assume for a moment that that would encompass all Christians.

    But when all terrorists call it Jihad, why whine at these people for using the same term. The meaning has shifted.

    So who blames ALL Muslims?

  • Well, idiots on barstools all across America blame all Muslims, for starters.

    But saying Islam is "dominated" by fanatics amounts to pretty much the same thing. It may not mean all Muslims are terrorists. But it does suggest all but a tiny number are potential terrorists, terrorist sympathizers, or apologists for terrorism. In short, the enemy.

  • Well I can't run my life on the musings of barstool idiots.

    It does not suggest 'all but a tiny number'. A minority can dominate. Just look at Bathist Iraq.

    Where the line lies forms the purpose of this debate. That is not ignorant nor offensive, but it is an attempt to understand. I feel your reactions here are somewhat unfounded.

  • Bin-Laden's use of the term deos not come from the Koran, but from a book written by his late teacher, Abdullah Azzam. The book is called In Defense of Muslim Lands and can be read online. In it, Azzam argued for an internationalist paramilitary struggle. This use of "jihad" is a modern invention.

  • @fileboy2002

    Are you really surprised that westerners would think Mulsims are fanatics?

    One of the commenters on this page says, on his profile, that he admires Hitler for killing Jews.

  • @charlesvan13 Westerners kill a heck of a lot more Muslims that vice versa--are really surprised many of them are so angry. I'm not.

    The other thing is that I grew in a largely Muslim neighborhood in Chicago. All my life, I've known Muslims. The idea that all Muslims are fanatics is laughable if you actually know many of them.

  • The term isn't but the activity is.

  • I can't seem to get the video to load either. It's a shame not to be able to start the debate with the intro.

  • Video refuses to load...
