Steve seems to think that my commentary deserves an ad hominem attack, which shows both his immaturity and the paucity of his argument. Since the political cuss words he hurled are those use infallibly by liberals when they are losing an argument, I find it safe to assume that he tilts to the moveon.org side of the political spectrum.
My original remark about liberalism being an emotional problem, cited by Stevo, is therefore illustrated and upheld by his childish defense of our national enemies – you know, who want to kill Steve and his family.
This has turned into antoehr Islam bashing excercise. Semms as if you could find better things to do than quote scripture (fiction by any other name) as truth. It may be truth in your mind but that is all.
Can’t we just stick to the issues on some of these threads. This started out as an issue of possible bias against a group by a major company.
Sahih Bukhari, Volume 4, Book 52, Number 260: Narrated Ikrima:
Ali burnt some people and this news reached Ibn ‘Abbas, who said, “Had I been in his place I would not have burnt them, as the Prophet said, ‘Don’t punish (anybody) with Allah’s Punishment.’ No doubt, I would have killed them, for the Prophet said, ‘If somebody (a Muslim) discards his religion, kill him.'”
Wow, so I can’t change from Lutheran to Baptist? Or does this only apply to Muslims converting to Hindu?
They are still investigating the attempted terror attacks in London, the car bombing in Scotland and burying the victims of the latest atrocity committed, some believe, in the name of Islam — the slaughter of eight people at an ancient temple in Yemen’s northeast province of Mareb.
And from Muslims the world over, as usual, has come mostly silence.
There have been no public demonstrations by Muslims anxious to make it clear how outraged they are that anyone could commit such unspeakable deeds for their version of Islam. There has been no anguished outcry by Islam’s leading imams and sheiks. Prominent Muslim organizations in the West have not called press conferences to express their disgust. Once again the world has witnessed savage episodes of Islamist terror, and once again it strains to hear a convincing rejection of the terrorists from those who should care most about Islam’s reputation.
We have seen enraged Muslims take to the streets to protest cartoons depicting the prophet Muhammad. A medieval reference in an academic lecture by Pope Benedict XVI unleashed a wave of denunciations, outrage and frustration across the Muslim world, and Britain’s decision to award a knighthood to author Salman Rushdie has outraged Muslim-dominated nations, who’ve called it deplorable and insulting to Islamic values. In fact, after the knighting of Sir Salman Rushdie, some eighteen years after the Ayatollah Khomeini issued a fatwa calling on Muslims to kill him, a government minister in Pakistan said that Rushdie’s recent knighthood justified suicide bombing.
Discrimination is wrong but maybe, just maybe people in the US have reason to be wary of Arabs??
Interesting that Hadji chimes in to condemn western self-defense against crazy Muslims (is that redundant?) but feels no need to apologize for or explain the Muslims that are blowing up innocents, or for instance who RIGHT NOW are threatening to kill 23 S. Korean Christians in Afghanistan.
So no wonder that terror and bombs and arrogance are the first things that people think of when they see “Arabs” mentioned in a news article.

my prayers for his soul that it be spared the fire and damnation that Allah deems due him.
LOL!
Idols cannot see or hear. Allah, like Ba’al, cannot see me or hear me.
Heed Allah and know that Allah sees what you do. (Qur’an, 2: 233)
“Allah is a sufficient witness between me and you. He is certainly aware of and sees His servants.” (Qur’an, 17: 96)
1 John 2:22, “Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.”
Who pays for your sins, Hadji?

Not Arabs, just Muslims.

Don’t blame people who point at the obvious.
