I honestly can't grasp how bashing down a door that has been slammed shut in front of western freedom repeatedly is the wrong reaction. If Pakistan wants to limit its freedom fine, if any area I'm not currently residing in wants to restrain themselves fine. I'm an American, and I'll draw what I damn well please. You seem to think this might be an operation of some sort, lol, no friend this is revolution knocking, it knocks hard.

@ramshaka One more thing, I'm tired of hearing its offensive to Muslims. I'm only gonna say it once "What the hell makes Muslims special?" I'm confronted, no, assailed with material I find offensive everywhere I turn my head, do I curl up and cry, no, do I insult and threaten people, occasionally as I see reasonable, BUT do I get any special consideration, should the worlds troubles part just for me FK NO. All I can say is stfu and Cowboy up, you crybaby crazies.

Father Ted: "watching the "filim""

what, was his father an Arab and mother an Irishman? I thought only Arabs said "film" that way.

@ramshaka Goodbye ramshaka.

PS: Personal attacks settle nothing.

@Anekantavad On this note, I'm done with you. Seriously, all I'm even asking is for you to simply admit that there are groups of radical Muslims that believe that the west is Satan incarnate, and wish to kill all of them (that is literally what they believe), just so I can make a simple point. But, it seems that you are trying a bit to hard to build p r for Islam to even make that simple, and honest admission. Your ignorance is demonstrable, and I've got better conversations to continue.

[ramshaka]

@Anekantavad Yes its a war zone, I'm aware of that. Just who do you suppose the enemy is? The people who want war with the west maybe? Militant Muslims indigenous, or migratory. Why, maybe, just maybe, to fight the infidels, you think? ISLAMIC FASCISTS are out there and should be dealt with. I DO talk to people that ARE there OFTEN. btw I've also had friends and relatives (working as contractors) killed in NON-combat zones you indignant pompous ass.

[Anekantavad]

@ramshaka You are apparently referring to Iraq, which is a war zone. In a war zone, people get killed. If one calls Muslims dangerous because of Iraq, can we call Americans equally dangerous because of Iraq?

I will qualify my last remark. Go to a place that is not a war zone, and try to find a violent or even anti-American Muslim. You won't find one. Again, don't take my word for it. Ask anyone who has been there.

[ramshaka]

@Anekantavad For the record I find your denial of those entities existence, disturbing, and appalling. Most especially on this day. I would compare it to Holocaust denial. I've lost to many friends and relatives to sit and listen to you say that Islamic fascism doesn't exist, F u very much.

[ramshaka]

@Anekantavad Are you seriously still asserting that those people don't exist? Are, you literally saying that, bombs, and bullets that have killed my family came from nothing? Do you realize that most Boilermaker members are Veterans? I know and work with veterans from every branch and current reserves, while yes, the majority of Muslims are not radical there are a considerable sum of them that are. And, they don't talk, they pull triggers and blow shit up. To deny that is retarded.

[Anekantavad]

@ramshaka The thing is, you'll never run into someone like that. Go to (say) Iran or Egypt, and actively seek out an anti-Western person or even someone who wants to say something mild like "your foreign policy sucks". You won't find a single one. What you will find is plenty of smiling, friendly people who make no connection whatsoever between you and your country's gov't. The average Muslim has nothing whatsoever against the West. Ask someone who has been there, and they will confirm this.
