well i think everyone is free to express their views, even if it is hateful. i dont know how radical u r but from the fact that u r asking if ur a traitor, it seems u r not a radical Muslim. I am a proud Asian American Christian who loves America w/ all my heart. But i understand where ur coming from. i understand some of ur grievances are grounded in facts, though they may be misunderstood. It is ok to hate the American government (not me), but pls dont hate America the country and the ppl. We are all not of the same mind. Most of us do care about innocent ppl, including Muslims. Just as u probably dont like it if we call all Muslims terrorists, it is also wrong to say that all Americans are Muslim haters and murderers. We are the largest contributor of aid to poor and needy countries, including many Muslim countries. Let me also point out that we let Muslims and people of all faiths practice freely whereas countries like Saudi Arabia are persecuting towards domestic Christians who do no harm to them but in fact pray for them.
Finally, we (Christians, Muslims, Jews) all want the same things: justice, protection of the innocent, etc. The problem is that we see the same situations in different ways. For example, many Muslims see the US presence in Iraq as occupation and colonization. This is understandable given a long history of Western domination in the Middle East. We see it as saving the Iraqis from a butcher and helping them enjoy the same freedoms and security we enjoy here, whether they be Sunni, Shiite, or Kurd. I admit things are looking very bad in Iraq now but u must at least realize that we truly want Iraq to get on its feet and live peacefully and properously.
Let us not forget that we all worship the same Deity (God, Allah, Yahweh). And all Americans are not Muslim haters. Those who do suspect them as terrorists are reacting understandably. If a Christian had flown a jumbo jet into the Saudi palace, it would be natural for Muslims to suspect ALL Christians of being terrorists and even hate them. This does not make it right but it is a natural reaction. The same can be said of those few Americans who are scared of Muslims.

the word is Traitor. And, sort of. You can disagree with american policy but still not be a traitor.
On the other topics-- there are no innocent muslims or jews for that matter. If the crazy mullahs and other muslim leaders would simply chill out, things would go much better. There are problems with radical muslims all over the world. Muslims killing muslims, christians, jews and other religions too. if they would quit, things would alot better. How many other religions are assinating, bombing, kidnapping, etc. all in the name of religion. None to speak of. Yet, you hear of all these problems all over the world from extremist muslims. Chill people!

Asad, you asked in your question 'does it make me a trader etc.'.
Did you mean 'traitor' for that is totally different. A trader is the type of person who buys and sells shares and commodities and the type of person who was killed in the Twin Towers on 9/11. Are you seriously suggesting that it was the Americans or Israelis who flew the planes into the towers causing all those deaths. Surely not. Why don't you condemn those who did instead of ranting on about the injustices overseas. Surely too Pakistan, Iran and Syria are Islamic countries.

I understand your frustration. It seems Muslims are in a much weaker position than Jews or Christians and do not have armies and tanks and nuclear weapons. Many make fun of your religion even though theirs has problems also.
I am truly sorry that more people do not understand your plight and that you are probably fighting with the only resources you have.
I don't understand though why anybody is fighting. Just give up. It is not worth it.

May I suggest you take your happy *** back to where you came from? And then when you are miserable you will, like all of the other countries all over the world, beg the U.S. to come save you and take care of you. Or if you prefer, disintegrate and see if it's true that you'll have all of your 'virgins in Heaven', by then it will be too late because all you will see is hell.

It doesn't make you a trader until you try to act on your twisted beliefs. It does make you wrong. Doesn't Allah have 12 virgins waiting for you somewhere? Put a bullet in your head and go find them.

I think that exchanging your goods with another who does the same would make you a trader.
