Arabs Americans, Indian............etc

Answer 1

Of course not. Yes, you will find some people who think all Arabs are terrorists, but then what they think really doesn't matter do they?

"i myself don't agree with either Bush nor terrorist. we want to make peace not wars." Yes, everyone WANTS there to be "world peace" and no wars but guess what, that isn't going to happen. Wars, while very sad, are the only way to make peace. Evil cannot be eradicated from the world, but it can be contained to a certain degree. Wars are not wanted, but neccessary.

And as for what President Bush has done? I'll give you one of my previous answers:

We overthrowed a tyrannical regime and gave the Iraqi civilians freedom. The militant Muslim extremists in Iraq are trying to take away that freedom by terrorizing them into submission. That is why it would be sucicidal and pointless to pull out of Iraq at this time.
Another old saying "war is hell" also applies here. Almost everyone (including the Democrats) supported the war when clear results were being displayed. They cheered when we invaded Afganistan, they cheered when we invaded Iraq, they cheered when we captured Haddam Hussein, they cheered when we captured other terrorist leaders in Iraq and other Middle Eastern Countries. Now the Democrats have taken control of the House and Senate and the Presidential Election is coming up, and now less and less is being reported about the things going on in Iraq. We're not hearing about the Al Queida leaders that were just taken out recently, we're not hearing about the relief efforts still being given to Iraqi civilians. We are hearing, however, that the Democratic leaders are no longer supporting this war and now think that it is a bad thing and we should just pull out with our tail between our legs. Not only that, but it is now completely President Bush's fault for getting started in this war in the first place (and they completely gloss over the fact that most of them were also supporting his decision). We're hearing a lot of negatives and not a lot of positives, and hearing even more of the 2008 Presidential Election (which won't take place until next year!) and how the only thing we can do now is to elect a President who will "finish the job" and bring back our soldiers. Remember, whenever you point a finger, there

Answer 2

That all sounds good to me, but the one thing you have to remember is the incredible amount of idiots out there who show their increasing ignorance with each passing day. I'm sure that most Arab people want to live in peace as most Americans do.

The problem is the people leading these countries, both Arab nations and Western nations. We cannot seem to get on the same page. Maybe something gets lost in the translation but it is ridiculous and painful to watch at best.

Some Arab leaders think that telling their people how bad America is will make them forget about the fact they don't have schools and roads and indoor plumbing. Services which should be provided by the governments of these countries.

American leaders want us to continue this war and continue to fight because they see the $$ in the future what with gaining control of the Iraqi oil and also with the dramatic rise in prices, which lead to more profits. Its a difference in which master they serve, but neither American nor Arab leadership is serving the proper master, the people.

Answer 3

I am so sorry that you have had to suffer this tragady, however, it is a terrible sigh of the times in which we live in. Most American people are like myself, & only want to live in peace. I'm a white caucasion, but I've always thought that the darker skinned women were beautiful. I would that I could tell you that you won't get anymore racist remarks, because you will. Propaganda fills the tabloids, the news papers, the bill boards, the message board, the internet, the t.v., everywhere thier is hate being sown in the hearts of men. When I was a little boy, i had hatred for the Oriental people, & couldn't understand why. No one oriental had ever done anything to me personally. Itwas hatred passed dowen to me from my parents from world war 2. War needs hatred, or people would forget what they were fighting for in the first place & seek a peaceful solution!!!

Answer 4

Hate is an irrational emotion. It would make sense for Americans to support the defence of thier nation. They should not have to hate all persons of the same ethnicity as those who attacked them to accomplish that. Though, pragmatism may demand that America take some actions that would directly affect or offend all Arabs or all Muslims, in the course of that defense.

Answer 5

I wouldn't consider your question racist or anything, but I will explain. See NPHC(Alpha Kappa Alpha,Delta Sigma Theta, Alpha Phi Alpha, Omega Psi Phi,etc.) organizations were started during the time of segregation and NPC organizations wouldn't let black students into them. So that's how they came to exsistentence. The same with Latino and Asian American organizations. Now as for your these organizations wont let anybody from a different ethnic background until their association is not true. I have a friend who is white and a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha, Inc. Now since it is years since segregation ended organizations are now accepting members of different ethnicities in their group. Hope this answer helps

Answer 6

I dislike the fact that for the most part no high ranking Arab - Muslims have come out denegrating the actions of the terrorists and letting them know that they are not true Arab Muslims...Aside from that, I have no strong feelings on the matter.

Answer 7

You are naive to believe that color, culture, and religion don't matter! More wars have been fought over religion than for any other cause. The reason that the Radical Muslims have been attacking us since the 1993 World Trade Center bombing is because they view the USA as the enemy of their fundamentalist version of Islam. Radical Islam is our enemy, and it is certainly okay to hate al Qaeda, the Taliban, and other radical Muslim groups. They are our declared enemy!

You have been brainwashed by your liberal teachers to believe in the "Cult of Multiculturalism" that there are no value differences between cultures, despite the overwhelming evidence that there are some cultures that are evil and ineffective. Look at the fundamentalist Muslim culture, the Hip-Hop culture in the USA, and the Mexican culture of corruption. I will take the USA culture over those cultures any day.

We have much to fear about Radical Islam. Learn the truth about our enemies.

Answer 8

I wouldn't call Bush a terrorist, but I don't blame all Arabs and Muslims for terrorists of their groups, either.......

Answer 9

Americans are not "supposed" to hate anybody. We can like or hate whoever we want individually all for our own reasons.
Muslims and Arabs have hated America LONNNNNG before Bush got into office.

Answer 10

we seldom see any Swedish citizens strapping bombs to themselves or their children to blow up innocent ppl that are just going about their daily business but we do see radicals who do. we seldom see the 'moderate' Muslims protest the outrages committed by these terrorist even thought the majority killed by their tactics are Muslims themselves.

yes indeed all people should be free to live their lives, love and protect their families, be proud of their children and respect the religious beliefs of others.

we do not live in a perfect world and terrorist is a sad fact of our daily lives due to these terrorist.

until the majority of moderate Muslims take action to stop the radical, i fear they will be seen as agreeing. there are more moderate Muslims than terrorist so it should not be impossible for them to organize, stop the killings, and promote the peace they profess to love.
