I always hear that people complain that Muslims don't speak out enough against terrorism. So, can you please set a good example and speak out against violence from "our" side, e.g. Iraq war, Lebanon war, occupation of Palestinians.... I am waiting for the answers.

Texas Conservative, are you kidding or are you serious? I really don't know.

barter256, I know there are people who speak out against it, but I also see a lot of people who very openly appreciate every killing

birdsnakecatherine, there was a reason why I put "our" in quotation marks, I am not with Bush and all these policies, but I am a citizen of a European country and not a Muslim.
And I am not on the side of anyone who kills civilians.

2006-10-19 07:15:35 · update #3

clk4cb, yes you are right, but I asked the question this way because only the killing of Muslim civilians is openly appreciated by many people in this forum.

2006-10-19 07:21:30 · update #4

bottles, you are funny... "We don't target civilians"... yeah it's all "collateral damage", I know....... there are thousands of civilians killed and then people say "oh, but they weren't our target"

2006-10-19 07:36:31 · update #5

ken y, I have Muslim friends, I can assure you no one ever tried to harm me, it is not true what you say.

2006-10-19 07:52:01 · update #6

yupchagee, I know there is a difference between occupation and killing, but many people were killed under the occupation, that's why I wrote this.

2006-10-19 08:32:59 · update #7

bottles, I don't think killing is funny, but your arguementation made no sense. I didn't answer your edit earlier because I didn't see it before, that's all. By the way I suggest you read some reports of amnesty international or Human Rights Watch.

Brooks B, you write many things that are true, I know that in Iraq Muslims are killing each other and they should also look into the mirror and all this. I don't think America and Israel were responsible for every evil in the world or something like this. But is it also fact that many civilians are killed by American and Israeli army and people should speak out against it and they should not say that the other side is exclusively responsible for violence.

Obviously, you choose when and where to open your ears. A lot of famous Americans speak out against the KILLING OF ANY HUMAN BEING. You see, if we protest WAR, then we are against the taking of ANY HUMAN LIFE, irregardless of religion, sexual preference, culture, or any divisive trait. Muslims, true believers of the Quran and Mohammad's teachings, know that it is a peaceful, enlightened religion. The different versions are tools, just like in the US, that sects use for control. Always remember, the first Wife, Kadeja (phonetic), I believe was a warrior, great thinker and businesswoman. Yet so many versions of Islam condemn women to secondary roles. Don't equate our retarded USG as speaking for the citizens of the United States.

The killing of Muslim civlians would be a lot more heartwrenching for me if the Muslim extremests weren't so fond of killing other Muslims. The vast majority of civilians killed in Iraq have been killed by MUSLIMS!!!!

I never supported going into Iraq - but now that we're there, we're the only thing keeping the country from blowing up into civil war. Muslims kill far more muslims than the US and Israel put together.

I do not want to see any civilians killed, and I don't mean to justify the fact that a single innocent has been killed by the US or Israel - but I think that Muslims spend far too long pointing the finger and not enough time looking in the mirror.

The war in Lebanon was caused by a MUSLIM terrorist group - one that purposely launched rockets at Irsaeli civilians. Israel never directly targets civilians unlike Muslim extremests. Same goes for the United States.

I truthfully have heard many Muslims clearly asking why they might desire to be envisioned to??? they are no longer the spokesperson for some terrorist group. And the theory that Christian church homes got here out to look after the viability of their faith after the Oklahoma bombing is ridiculous. one in all those theory does no longer have got here approximately to Pat Robertson much less John Q. Citizen. Muslims no longer taking particular attention to beg forgiveness for the strikes of a few terrorist is easily popular. Why could they? what style of 6 3 hundred and sixty 5 days previous objectives those products up? needless to say there are clerics in Saudi Arabia who decide non-islam, reason oh they did no longer try this - or oh they did no longer come forward to try this.. And we over pay attention listening to an identical style of reversed rhetoric from our very own American clerics. human beings like clerics on the two edge are the motivating tension convincing those that their own violence is justified on an identical time as their ideological fighters violence is terrorism. confident, extremists and violent revolutionaries domesticate in third worldwide and underdeveloped aspects. We get damaging extremists being cultivated in East l. a.. Are those Christian gang bangers a mirrored image of Jesus? Or a mirrored image of their upbringing? How fondly i dream of a political occasion who truthfully values actual simple sense.

All Muslims civilian or soldier in a belligerant area should be killed indifferently because they are indifferent to the Israelis, British, American civilian or soldiers during their attacks. This is war and the people of this generation has forgotten the ugly side of war. This is the ugly side. We should kill every single one until either they can't kill a single of our citizens again or there is no one left to kill. Until our soldiers and people are safe from their attack, we can't stop. The only way out is peace which the Muslims have proven they only make out of convenience and on their terms which we can not accept because it is not a lasting peace so the other way to end it is total destruction or victory.

I am against killing Muslim civilians or any other civilians if at all possible. It is awful for the families and others. At the same time I am against anyone or any religious sect that promotes blowing themselves up to kill civilians.

Killing of Muslim civilians by whom? Most Muslim civilian deaths have been inflicted by other Muslims.
In case you didn't know, there is a difference between occupation & killing, just for your future reference.
Define civilian. They define as civilian anyone not wearing a uniform. Terrorists don't wear uniforms, therefore by their definition, terrorists are civilians.

When will Muslim civilians quit killing Muslim civilians??????
Looks to me like for every one that is killed by the military, a thousand are killed by Muslim civilians.

by Robert Spencer

Meet the real Muhammad:


Muhammad's bizarre reaction to his first "revelation": "I will go to the top of the mountain and throw myself down that I may kill myself"

The heretical Christian who convinced Muhammad he was a prophet – and may have taught him his erroneous views of Christianity

Islamic borrowings from Judaism, Christianity, and Zoroastrianism – and Muhammad's enraged replies to charges that he borrowed material rather than received actual divine revelations

The "revelation" that allowed Muhammad to marry his beautiful daughter-in-law

The strange incident in Muhammad's life that makes it virtually impossible to prove rape in Islamic countries today

The real "Satanic Verses" incident (not the Salman Rushdie version): how Muhammad's attempt to win over his opponents ended with his saying he had been inspired not by God, but by Satan

How the Qur'an's teaching on warfare against unbelievers developed – with constant war to establish the hegemony of Islamic law as the last stage

The first year of the Muslim calendar: not when Muhammad was born or became a prophet, but when he became a warlord

How Muhammad used the graphic lure of Islamic Paradise to urge his warriors to fight furiously to extend his rule

"Kill every Jew who comes into your power": why Muhammad became so angry with both Jews and Christians – with disastrous consequences that are still playing out in the world today

The momentous command by Muhammad that led to good being identified with anything that benefited the Muslims, and evil with anything that harmed them --without reference to any larger moral standard

Muhammad's child bride – and the terrible consequences his marriage to a nine-year-old still has in the Islamic world

"This is the caravan of the Quraysh possessing wealth. It is likely that Allah may give it to you as booty": how Muhammad gave divine sanction to the Muslims' bloody raids

"War is deceit": the permission Muhammad gave his followers to lie in order to gain an advantage over their enemies

How Muhammad broke the principal treaty he entered into, again setting a pattern for Muslim states thereafter

Muhammad's commands to his followers to wage perpetual war against non-Muslims, including Jews and Christians

Muhammad on women's rights: women "are prisoners with you having no control of their persons"

"If justice is not to be found with me then where will you find it?" Why Muhammad still stands for Muslims as the supreme model for human behavior

"I will expel the Jews and Christians from the Arabian Peninsula, and will not leave any but Muslims" – and other statements by Muhammad that contemporary jihadists take very seriously

Islamic tolerance? The onerous tax burden and other discriminatory regulations mandated for non-Muslims under Islamic law

How Muhammad ordered the killing of apostates from Islam

The massacre of a Jewish tribe by Muhammad that was invoked by modern-day jihadists at the beginning of Israel's July 2006 operations against Hizballah in Lebanon

"Embrace Islam, and your lives and property will be safe": Muhammad's threatening letters to the rulers of the lands around Arabia

Muhammad's frequent avowals that the Muslims would overcome the empires bordering on Arabia and one day stand as masters of the world

"I have been made victorious with terror" – and other statements of Muhammad on his deathbed
