Do you believe in the Western "made-for-mass consumption" junk concerning Islam?

Question

From the beginning, the architects and authors of this junk, have been serving us a buffet of lies surrounding the religion of Islam and its history with the West. Not just out of government mouthpieces, but virtually the entire "fascist neo-con" talk show parade as well as almost every big-name Christian evangelist. Their message has been common and crude: The religion of Islam teaches hatred for all other faiths, most notably the Christian and Judaic.

Yet, they never point to history as proof of their own blind hatred greed and lust for Muslim blood, and the "fury" with which the the Christian West swept across the Mediterranean lands, forcing the conversion of Muslims to their filthy crass culture and pervert life stye at the point of a tank.

Answer 1

I cannot describe how irritating it is to hear that Abraham Lincoln fought the "American Civil War" in order to free the slaves, that FDR saved this country from the Great Depression, that the first amendment to the US Constitution guarantees the right to publish pornography, and that "assault weapons" have been the greatest source of crime and violence in the US during the last century. And yet, it is easy to see how well-intentioned people, who have not yet grasped the extent to which they have surrendered to media and government types the ability to think for themselves, can buy into these notions. They are packaged very cleverly, with bits and pieces of information that are verifiably true. And let's not forget to consider those mouthpieces doing the convincing-very impressive. All kinds of advanced degrees from this school or another, a book tour, a radio or TV show, you name it.

Answer 2

I try to look past all of the hype and see both sides of any issue.
You talk a good game but your true thoughts are revealed through phrases such as, "filthy crass culture and pervert life style" and, "blind hatred greed and lust".
We cannot change history - we can only change things today and in the future. Unfortunately for the points you are trying to make, Islam's own actions and inactions of late have spoken a lot louder than words.
Where is their outrage over the actions of the terrorists who kill and maim innocent people in the name of their God? We see their outrage over cartoons and we hear their death threats for anyone who questions their believes. We don't even get any response from them or their councils around the world when the United Nations asks them to condemn suicide bombings?
Unfortunately, as always, actions do speak louder than words.

Answer 3

I have absolutely no idea what you're trying to say, but if you're trying to advertise the tired old snow job about a "religion of peace," that idea just blew up with the last car bomb.

Answer 4

Hmmmm

"believe in" you ask. And not believe the.

That would be a No.
