		<description>John,
I do not think your comment worth responding to but one correction if I may;

Islam in Arabic I am told means submission not peace. In Arabic the word salam (peace) sounds similar to Islam but that is all.</description>

		<description>Quote: steve steve the american
&quot;I don’t think you’re evil but I do believe Islam is evil.&quot;

Islam means peace, so by having little knowledge one can assume that

&quot;Peace is evil&quot; impossible...

Well regarding 9/11,
many american agree that it was an internal work.. Done by american government. There was no involvement of Islam &amp; Muslim whatsoever.</description>

		<description>Wow, J. Thanks for your reply. It was so.......insightful. I actually thought you were talking about a grassroots movement by the people to take back their religion and way of life from the fanatics, not some 14th century travel writer&#039;s diary. Got anything more recent? Do you think you could stage a revolution???</description>

		<description>I am not going to defend my religion just for arguments sake, all I am asking is to respect my beliefs as I respect your christian beliefs.  If we were all radical fanatics then imagine how much destruction 1 billion muslims would of done caused a full scale war.  Just as you christians have some bad apples (KKK, Neo Nazis, Evangelists) we have our short thobed long beard fanatics who are hell bent on destruction.  If we all hated the jews so much how come the Nonoo and Rouben family live peacefully in Bahrain? With the government even allocating them land for their own use.</description>

		<description>Your bias is just limitless and just because I am an arab doesnt mean that I was edumacated in an arab country.  Wow Steve you have outdone yourself this time, muslim&#039;s supporting the nazi&#039;s, Spanish conquest because of muslims, natives killing pilgrims.  

It is fruitless arguing with you right wing nutjobs.  Steve you conveniently forgot to mention the part where the southerners would have sunday barbecues followed by a nice little lynching.  The natives were killing pilgrims according to you Steve, you again conveniently forget to mention the part where your government seized their lands and put them on reservations and took their children to residential schools. At these schools your government did a bang job at abusing and culturally cleansing the native children.  Ofcourse, all that didn&#039;t happen Steve.  

I&#039;m not even going to argue with your serious accusations against my religion.  Nobody has been spared by your americans.. Your country has  destroyed the Native American culture, imprisoned Americans of Japanese descent during WWII in internment camps, built a rich, powerful juggernaut on the back of African Slaves, then after setting them free, your started segregating and lynching them publically.</description>

		<description>MK,

Some of the points you make are legitimate, some not.

Let&#039;s start with the Crusades, which were provoked by the savage Muslim conquest of most of Christendom in the Mediterranean basin.  After Mohammed died, Muslims went on a thousand year long jihad of brutal conquest following the Koranic injunction to make non-Muslims convert, subjugate themselves, or die.  The carnage in Egypt among the native Copts was horrific and spread west across Africa to invade Europe through Spain and into France.  The Muslims invaded Europe through Sicily, on into Italy, even into Rome where they sacked the Vatican.  On the East, Muslims slaughtered their way around the Christian lands on the east coast of the Mediterranean into the Christian empire of the Byzantines.  The Byzantine emperor, an Eastern Orthodox Christian, begged for help from the Pope, who headed the rival Christian faction, to fight off the Muslim invaders who had conquered most of the Byzantine empire.  It took nearly a hundred years to launch the first crusade in the face of the Muslim onslaught.

So for you to ignore centuries of Muslim conquest of Christian lands to claim the Crusades were unjustified can only be due to ignorance of Muslim history or Muslim bigotry.  I might also point out that the Crusades were all fought on territory orginally Christian and taken be force by Muslims in war.  If you object to the Christian Crusades which took back these lands temporarily from the Muslims, do you also object to the Muslim jihad which originally stole these lands permanently from the Christians?  Or do you follow the Muslim orthodoxy that any land Muslims steal is permanently Muslim?

Your defense of the Jews in the Holocaust is very touching, especially in the light that most Muslims support the Holocaust and think the Nazis were the good guys.  As you may recall, we fought a world war to end Nazi evil, a war I&#039;m proud to say my family fought in.

I&#039;d be interested to hear how you reconcile your mock horror of the Holocaust with the continued use of unedited Nazi propaganda in the Muslim world and the fervent Muslim desire to perpetrate a new Holocaust in Israel.

I&#039;d say the Spanish Conquistadors were nobody&#039;s sweethearts, being only a couple steps more advanced than the Aztecs they conquered.  I&#039;d say their attempt to spread their religion by conquest was wrong.  However, they had been schooled in this way of think by centuries of Muslim occupation and naturally applied the jihad they had been taught so brutally by their former Muslim occupiers to the propagation of Catholicism.  We can all agree that the violent Muslim method of making converts by war is wrong.

I suppose in the fun house mirror of history you learn in Arab classrooms you were taught that all the innocent basket-weaving Indians were killed off by the evil Americans.  In the real world, the Indians gave as good as they got.  Indian hunting parties casually murdered European settlers they encountered, cutting off choice bits to cook and eat later, much as they would do with a deer.  They took the women and children captive, raping the women and casually murdering the children if they were too much trouble or couldn&#039;t keep up.

Most Indian stories go like this:  The Indians casually killed one or two settlers or a family.  Their neighbors gave chase but lost their trail after three days.  After dozens of such murders happenned, the cavalry was called upon to stop it, but the Indians were too mobild during most of the year to find.  So the cavalry had to attack them at their winter camps, where the Indians usually held European captives as slaves.  The many little Indian murderers aren&#039;t big enough to make history, but the big cavalry attacks are.

The Americans did not annihilate the Indians, like, say, the Wahhabis annihilated non-Wahhabis in Arabia, but preserved them on reservations.  There were two million Indians when Columbus landed.  There are two million left now.  

Shall we compare and contrast the preservation of American Indians to the Jewish tribes that originally lived in Arabia?  Or the Jews remaining in Muslim countries?  Nobody messes with the Indians in America.  Plenty of Muslims mess with Christians, harassing them, murdering them.  When Muslims like you complain about American treatment of the Indians, you come off as obtuse about the treatment of ethnic minorities in your own country.  Right now, American Indians are setting up wildly profitable casinos on their reservations.  Where in the Muslim world are Jews or Hindus allowed to run wildly profitable businesses freely?

It&#039;s true that slavery existed in America.  It&#039;s also true we fought a war to end it a century and a half ago.  I might point out that the slave trade was originally started by Africans themselves and taken up with gusto by the Muslims long before Americans became involved with it.  Muslims traded and owned slaves long after we prohibited it, even to this very day.  What hypocrisy you display to condemn America for long dead slavery when it slavery is alive and well in Islamic countries.

Where slaves are not openly held in Muslim countries like the Sudan they are implicitly held in Muslim hellholes like Saudi Arabia.  Every year in America, Muslim foreigners are prosecuted in America for holding their servants as slaves in their homes.  It is simply preposterous for a Muslim like you to castigate Americans on slavery.  I recommend you Muslims free your slaves before you presume to lecture the world on slavery.

As for lynchings, they were executions carried out outside the courts.  The state crushed them.  The perpetrators were prosecuted.  Where local courts were sympathetic to the murderers, state and federal courts continued the prosecutions, some of them to this very day.

By contrast, the Muslim world commonly executes innocent people in and out of the court system.  Some Muslims in Turkey killed some Christians working in a Bible-printing factory, stabbing them with bread knives dozens of times.  That sounds worse than hanging to me.  Iran commonly hangs gay people, even teenage kids who don&#039;t know what they&#039;re doing.  Again, it&#039;s preposterous for Muslims to criticize the lynchings of the Old South in America when the Muslim world maintains its own lynching atmosphere to this very day.  For Pete&#039;s sake, Muslims ran wild in the streets murdering people over Danish cartoons.  How can you look the world in the face and make such accusations when Muslims are guilty of actively practicing every evil behavior they condemn?

If you take a look around the bureaucracy in the US government you&#039;ll find it full of black people at every level.  How many Jews are incorporated into the governments of Muslim countries?  OK, I&#039;ll make it easy:  How many non-Muslims are given preference in the Muslim world for government jobs?  Or for anything?

Of course, all these accusations against America are simply the tired old Muslim tactic of evading answering the accusations made against them.  Muslims always resort to fallacious tu quoque rebuttals because the Muslim world is simply indefensible.</description>

<p>Your defense of the Jews in the Holocaust is very touching, especially in the light that most Muslims support the Holocaust and think the Nazis were the good guys.  As you may recall, we fought a world war to end Nazi evil, a war I&#8217;m proud to say my family fought in.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d be interested to hear how you reconcile your mock horror of the Holocaust with the continued use of unedited Nazi propaganda in the Muslim world and the fervent Muslim desire to perpetrate a new Holocaust in Israel.</p>
<p>I&#8217;d say the Spanish Conquistadors were nobody&#8217;s sweethearts, being only a couple steps more advanced than the Aztecs they conquered.  I&#8217;d say their attempt to spread their religion by conquest was wrong.  However, they had been schooled in this way of think by centuries of Muslim occupation and naturally applied the jihad they had been taught so brutally by their former Muslim occupiers to the propagation of Catholicism.  We can all agree that the violent Muslim method of making converts by war is wrong.</p>
<p>I suppose in the fun house mirror of history you learn in Arab classrooms you were taught that all the innocent basket-weaving Indians were killed off by the evil Americans.  In the real world, the Indians gave as good as they got.  Indian hunting parties casually murdered European settlers they encountered, cutting off choice bits to cook and eat later, much as they would do with a deer.  They took the women and children captive, raping the women and casually murdering the children if they were too much trouble or couldn&#8217;t keep up.</p>
<p>Most Indian stories go like this:  The Indians casually killed one or two settlers or a family.  Their neighbors gave chase but lost their trail after three days.  After dozens of such murders happenned, the cavalry was called upon to stop it, but the Indians were too mobild during most of the year to find.  So the cavalry had to attack them at their winter camps, where the Indians usually held European captives as slaves.  The many little Indian murderers aren&#8217;t big enough to make history, but the big cavalry attacks are.</p>
<p>The Americans did not annihilate the Indians, like, say, the Wahhabis annihilated non-Wahhabis in Arabia, but preserved them on reservations.  There were two million Indians when Columbus landed.  There are two million left now.  </p>
<p>Shall we compare and contrast the preservation of American Indians to the Jewish tribes that originally lived in Arabia?  Or the Jews remaining in Muslim countries?  Nobody messes with the Indians in America.  Plenty of Muslims mess with Christians, harassing them, murdering them.  When Muslims like you complain about American treatment of the Indians, you come off as obtuse about the treatment of ethnic minorities in your own country.  Right now, American Indians are setting up wildly profitable casinos on their reservations.  Where in the Muslim world are Jews or Hindus allowed to run wildly profitable businesses freely?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s true that slavery existed in America.  It&#8217;s also true we fought a war to end it a century and a half ago.  I might point out that the slave trade was originally started by Africans themselves and taken up with gusto by the Muslims long before Americans became involved with it.  Muslims traded and owned slaves long after we prohibited it, even to this very day.  What hypocrisy you display to condemn America for long dead slavery when it slavery is alive and well in Islamic countries.</p>
<p>Where slaves are not openly held in Muslim countries like the Sudan they are implicitly held in Muslim hellholes like Saudi Arabia.  Every year in America, Muslim foreigners are prosecuted in America for holding their servants as slaves in their homes.  It is simply preposterous for a Muslim like you to castigate Americans on slavery.  I recommend you Muslims free your slaves before you presume to lecture the world on slavery.</p>
<p>As for lynchings, they were executions carried out outside the courts.  The state crushed them.  The perpetrators were prosecuted.  Where local courts were sympathetic to the murderers, state and federal courts continued the prosecutions, some of them to this very day.</p>
<p>By contrast, the Muslim world commonly executes innocent people in and out of the court system.  Some Muslims in Turkey killed some Christians working in a Bible-printing factory, stabbing them with bread knives dozens of times.  That sounds worse than hanging to me.  Iran commonly hangs gay people, even teenage kids who don&#8217;t know what they&#8217;re doing.  Again, it&#8217;s preposterous for Muslims to criticize the lynchings of the Old South in America when the Muslim world maintains its own lynching atmosphere to this very day.  For Pete&#8217;s sake, Muslims ran wild in the streets murdering people over Danish cartoons.  How can you look the world in the face and make such accusations when Muslims are guilty of actively practicing every evil behavior they condemn?</p>
<p>If you take a look around the bureaucracy in the US government you&#8217;ll find it full of black people at every level.  How many Jews are incorporated into the governments of Muslim countries?  OK, I&#8217;ll make it easy:  How many non-Muslims are given preference in the Muslim world for government jobs?  Or for anything?</p>
<p>Of course, all these accusations against America are simply the tired old Muslim tactic of evading answering the accusations made against them.  Muslims always resort to fallacious tu quoque rebuttals because the Muslim world is simply indefensible.</p>

		<description>If you Christians are so peace loving folks then please explain the crusades, the killing of thousands of Jews in Europe, the Spanish Conquistadors, the manifest destiny which you claimed was the spreading of freedom by killing those savage Indians. Then how about those african slaves who worked on the southern plantations of course they too were savages. Lynchings were a good way to show them who was in charge. You conveniently forget your own bloody (PEACEFUL) history all too well. Good ol America
