The Islamist Revolution

[emotionalinvalid]

This fine,courageous man, intelligent man Alaistar Crooke should never had his talked controlled by this young,obnoxious, intrusive whipper snapper. Outrageous, he should be ashamed of himself. A lot more from Mr. Crooke should have been in this video.

[lionsome]

I dont believe in an arab revolution

[emotionalinvalid]

Again, an interesting and excellent talk by Mr. Crooke. One disappointment was the moderator grouping the questions by the moderator. And what occurred is the excellent information and question by the photographer/journalist who mentioned that Hezbollah, Amal and the Communists in Lebanon fought together against Israel's aggression went unanswered because the young moderator chimed in and the question from the photog was forgotten.

[emotionalinvalid]

Alastair Crooke is one of the most courageous and decent men who walks this earth

[emotionalinvalid]

@emotionalinvalid what i left out is important to what I commented. Mr. Crooke is one of the most decent, courageous and intelligent men and women who walks the earth. Without one of the the three qualities the others would not exist in this precious man.

[PandemicMadness]

i often ask myself why are there so many sick and twisted, perverted and extremist interpretations of Islam. Only conclusion is that must be one fucked up little book.

[madsharukh]

@PandemicMadness you are totally misunderstood. I want to know what would the US/Canada citizens do if there is no established political system. meaning not 1 president but many, not one party but many, no election, and being played around behind the scene by other countries that don't give a fuk?. .... What you see is the result of a political problem that was and is created by the very Fukin USA. Islam is peace if left alone. to find out go read history

[emotionalinvalid]

@madsharukh " Islam is peace if left alone." true. There were no terrorist attacks on American soil until King George 1(daddy bush) left military bases in Persian Gulf area and "a stone's throw" from Mecca after the questionable war in 1990 against Iraq's invasion of Kuwait. Diplomacy by the French was about to get Saddam out of Kuwait. But daddy bush wanted a war: oil,two bushes s&l 90',etc. history of USgov fing mid east(&elsewhere) starts just post ww2. 911was effect"blowback", not cause.

[amareto35]

@PandemicMadness Yeah, but Islam was not responsible for the Jews who were killed in WW2 and the other Eurepeans. as a matter fact the jews scaped to North Africa (Marroco) to get peace and they living there to this day. Islam was not responsible for the Millions of the Native Americans who were slaugthered and Aboriginals in Australia. It's so easy to point a finger to someone and say that's the bad guy when your history is based on VIOLENT. And did I mention the 400 YEARS of te slavery?

[emotionalinvalid]

@amareto35 excellent points my friend 

[amareto35]

@emotionalinvalid Thank you..

[darinmaclachlan]

Great vid, btw, I'm raising awareness about the Chinese Communist Party persecution of 70 million Falun Gong spiritual practitioners for 10 years in China. They are put in slave-labor camps, forced to make stuff sold here. A 2009 UN report said vital organs are even taken from them and sold on the black market. Falun Gong practitioners are peaceful, not terrorists. China is where all the jobs are going, and the media doesn't cover it. It must stop. Thanks.

[SalafiJustice]

revolution isnt from islaam, this is something newly innovated by ignorants

[ass711]

"...this is something newly innovated by ignorants"

so is salafism!!

[SalafiJustice]

taking knowledge from the understanding of the sahaba is new? you're lost

[ass711]

no you're lost

they believe that staying at the times of the prophet is genuine and is against any modernist and progressive things like technology, despite the fact that the prophet himself encouraged progressive ideas like salman al-farsi who created trenches

they also believe in literalism, that allah has a body, whereas that is kufr because allah is not a human being or figure (astagfirullah)

.

[ass711]

salafism also believes that people can make their own interpretations when reading hadiths, which is not what the sahabas taught, even today mainstream muslims follow the old traditional sheiks from back then, not some obscure radical sheikh in saudi arabia preaching violence against innocents

so in colclusion no it is you who is lost

[SalafiJustice]

no it doesnt, that phrase contradicts itself. you obviously have no clue what salafiyyah means.

[ass711]

no i know more about the evils and danger and bidah of salaffiyah than you do, the phrase doesn't contradict itself but makes sense. no it is you who is lost

[SalafiJustice]

listen you jaahil, SALAFI means one who takes the understanding of the QURAN AND SUNNAH FROM THE SALAF. this is legal def'n for it. linguistically salaf means those that came before ie the predecessors. THE WHOLE POINT OF IT IS TO TAKE THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE FIRST 3 GENERATIONS...and you come and say it means complete opposite you're either a severe ignorant or you're a deceitful wicked liar. May Allaah guide you or destroy you ameen.

[ass711]

listen you mushrik, whe n you said one who takes understanding from the quran and sunnah that means they can MAKE THEIR OWN INTERPRETATIONS, a salafi doesn't follow the traditional schools of sunni islam, rather they make their own views because they think they are able to do it like salafs, this is the legal def'n for it.

[ass711]

THE WHOLE POINT OF IT IS TO TAKE THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE FIRST 3 GENERATIONS... but you interptret it the opposite way to justify making your own interpretations, no wonder so many extremists like you are from sects defining itself as salafi.you're either a severe ignorant or you're a deceitful wicked liar. May Allaah guide you or destroy you ameen.

[SalafiJustice]

it means they take the view of the companions and the 2 generations after so they are not making their own. and im glad you called me a mushrik alhamdulilah.

[ass711]

how would you know the view of the 2 generations?

by making your own that seems like that of the 3 generations?

good thing you are a mushrik alhamdulillah

[SalafiJustice]

you're filthy shia rafidah?? and i am wasting my time with you?? 

wont happen again, i made some good videos exposing your filth. we will destroy you like sallaahudeen ayubi did bi ithni laahi ta3ala

[ass711]

you're a salafi nasbi? and you folow the kaffir ibn tayymiah?

wont happen again. there some good videos exposing your filth. and no matter how much you make videos attacking shias, they will grow in strength and faith, and will respond in kind. we will? destroy you like prophet muhammad destroyed the kuffars. sallaahudeen ayubi ? did you forget who kicked your ass in iran? shah ismail 1, you are still recovering from the blow 500 years ago, that's why shah ismail is better than salahudeen.

[afrikanbadboy]

@ass711 RACIST SHIAISM GO WIPE THE ASS OF WHITE PAGANS

[SudanDawah]

@ass711 Your name explains what the shia are.....

[TheSoundKage]

No it's from Islam.

In the Quran it says;

Oh, ye who beileve go and fight the unbeilevers.

And since that was the reigning government it would make sense if you think.

letusreason(dot)org

[SalafiJustice]

the quran also says pray and fast and give zakat...but can we do these worships however we want? or are there rules and conditions and pillars....maybe you need to think a bit.

[TheSoundKage]

Really?

The Quran also says: "Your Wives are Tilth(Land) to you so do what you may unto them but do so what you may."

Meaning: Treat your wives anyway you want,however it won't hide what they are Farmland.

Quran 5:18: "The Jews and Christians claim themselves sons of Allah.Then why is Allah judging them? Allah Judges who He pleases. To Him is the Final Goal."

You say, Allah forgives. Muhammed says right here,that there is Pre-destination, Meaning; People don't get mercy if they ask.

[TheSoundKage]

Right use a modifed Version, Instead of the Arabic.

[Dzienkuje123]

"Oh Lord, these are certainly a people who do not believe," Allah responded to him, "Turn away from them and say: 'Peace'" (Koran 43:88-89)

[Dzienkuje123]

"Fight those in the way of God who fight you but do not be aggressive: God does not like aggressors" [Koran 2:190]

[Dzienkuje123]

"There is no compulsion in matters of faith" (Koran 2:256)

[libnaineh]

Apologist for Shia Iran... instead of highlighting the dangers of both Shia and Sunni radical Islam he heaps praise on the "progressive" Islamic ideology of the Iranian regime while criticizing what he mistakenly characterizes as Western support for "Sunni radicals insipred by Ibn Taymiyeh."

This guys is a pro-Iranian Hizbullah inspired wannabe academic!

[mazgan86]

There is no shia radical islam. shia has one definite ideology unlike sunni. if you mean hezbullah, well if some time Mexico occupies Texas (!!!) what will you do? when a group in afghanistan did a terrorist attack in ur country, you invaded the whole country and i think you had the right to do so. but when israel occupies south Lebanon the people there should not do anything?

[robertjbell]

I feel he overstates the significance of the "Islamist Revolution". Such actions have little or no precedent in human society, and while theoretical concepts about state organization are interesting, they have little translation into direct policy of Islamic movements.

[dimadima2007]
