Why is it so that muslims are being depicted as terrorist through actions of a minute group?

Question

It is funny how we can label any suspicious activity by a muslim ( arab/pakistani/indian) involvement in terrorism while on the other hand we have major super powers in the world performing acts of injustive and inhumane killing millions of innocent lives. I believe in the saying 'an eye for an eye' but what if you go over board and cut off their limbs as well. If the 9/11 incident was to occur in Israel for instance of even a place like Germany or Italy would the response be the same? If so why not? Another big question with little assurity is that how come there were no jews present at the world trade centre on 9/11, again I am not sure if this is a fact or not but this has spread around.

Answer 1

Humans tend to lump people into groups, it's easier. It takes more use of the mind to treat each person as an individual.

An 'eye for an eye' is actually a description of a way to limit punishment as opposed to enforcing punishment for the action of another. In the bible it came up because if one farmer killed another farmer's cow, the other farmer would retaliate by killing two or more of the other's cows. Which would result in the other killing even more of the others...and so on. An eye for an eye references a limit, if your neighbor kills your cow. You are limited to only killing one of their cows and no more.

As for no Isrealis in the World Trade Center, don't believe that. It is propaganda created by someone who doesn't like jews. There were people from many different nations and religions killed that day.

Answer 2

What inhumane superpowers are killing millions of people?
If the Muslims are so innocent, why aren't they standing up and denouncing the terrorist's killing of innocent women and children.
Even in Iraq, when an Muslim extremeist kills sixty or so men, women and children while exploding a car bomb in a crowded market, you never hear one Muslim leader come out and denounce the act of violence. Even their most prominant Muslim leaders preach hate towards westerners, mainly the United States and Israel. Who are their prominant leaders? How about the quack from Iran, Armanddidajob, he professes death to us all.
The last time a leader in the middle east cozied up to a western government, he was assasiniated (Sadat). They must be afraid of even being friendly towards westerners. Because they know if they are friendly to us, it won't be long before one of their brothers kill them.
We don't know how Germany or Italy would react if a 9/11 type thing happened to them. But you can almost bet that they would be looking towards the US seeking help to address the situation. I don't think either of thaose countries has any place that would offer such easy and abundant prey to the radicals as the twin towers offered. And in case you haven't noticed, Israel deals with terrorist attacks nearly everyday. and the Muslims are not being depicted as terrorists because of the actions of a minute group, they are being depicted as terrorist by the actions of hundres of thousands.

Answer 3

So far I'm unable to tell who is and who is not a Muslim terrorist. Since they are all cowards who do not reveal or identify themselves by such things as uniforms, then I'm left no option but to be suspicious of all Muslims.

If the peaceful Muslims don't like the image they are portrayed as due to the alleged small group of extremists, then it is up to them to make me understand differently.

Answer 4

Because Muhammed was a terrorist and the Koran calls for death to anyone who is not a Muslim.

Answer 5

You are sooooooooo right!! I Am so tired of this "raghead" crap that some people spew. You cannot judge a whole religion, race or country by the actions of a few.
