Muslim terrorism is a direct response to the foreign policies of governments, prove me wrong, if u can?

Question

ISRAEL;
First came establishment of Israel. through terrorism, and displacement of Palestinians, than cam Palestinian " terrorist"
USA;
First came American support for Israel, American support for dispicable Arab dictators, American political interference in Muslim lands, American military bases on Muslim lands. Than came Al Qaida and the desire to attack America.
UK;
Pre 2002, Muslim terrorist attacking the UK, was never an issue or threat. Despite calls to attack America since the 90s, OBL never mentioned the UK, than came the invasion of Iraq and Afghanistan, than came OBL's call to attack the UK, than came 7/7 and all the foiled plots or failed attempts.

How can people believe the political and media spin, that muslim terrorism would happen regardless of what the west does. And also Guantanamo Bay, is filled with innocent civilians or people fighting to protect their home lands from invaders. if your country was invaded and ur army defeated, would u accept occupation?

JohnnyR the 76 virgin thing has no mention in authentic muslim text, and yes Muhammad was a military leader, aswell as a social, spiritual and poilitical leader. Why would god give humans the instict to defend and seek revenge, plus make other humans arrouse those instinct and than forbid u to fight?

U mean soldiers like the ones who massacred people in haditha, or the ones who raped a 14 y/o n killed her entire family, the only thing isolated about these incidents is that they became public knowledge.
I say Muslim terrorism, to define what im talking about.

Answer 1

Why are you calling it Muslim terrorism?
That is like calling it Christian terrorism!
They are people who practice Muslim religion but does that make all Muslims accountable for the deeds of a few?
All of what you wrote is true but all these things happened in accordance with what God wanted not what you, I or anyone else think should have happen or want will happen!

Answer 2

"Muslim terrorism is a direct response to the foreign policies of governments, prove me wrong, if u can?"

Umm,, you are absolutely right! For every action, it is not unreasonable to expect a reaction. No one doubts that the US has pissed off lots of terrorists. I am not sure why you use the term "Muslim Terrorist". 99.999% of muslims/arabs/etc are NOT terrorists. I know a few arab Muslims and they are all cool guys (if you are a guy). Jacked up view of womens rights, but that is another topic.

What you have are a few extremists that give Muslims a bad name.

The problem with extremists is that for whatever reason, the 'Muslim' variety tend to be willing to do some extreme things that alarm most people. Take for example the USA. they drop bombs from planes and kill innocent people. But,, and here is the BIG DIFFERENCE between the US and terrorists,,,if the US could avoid killing innocent people, they would,, and they do,,, constantly. And, to prove this point, no carpet bombing like in WWII is taking place. Baghdad still stands,,, one of the reasons is that the USA does not want to kill innocent people. The US has nukes. They dont use them. If terrorists had nukes,, would they use them?

Also, US pilots drop the bombs from way up high. They are not killing themseves. Some call this cowardice,,, others call it smart. It is a simple value of life equation. The US does not cause death unless absolutly neccessary to avoid more death. Less death is better. This starts with each pilot. terrorists seem to care little about anybody, even themselves. All they care about is,,, what? That 'what' is key here.

Here is the rub,,,,

If terrorists, the likes of which are active in the middle east at the moment (notice I did not say 'Muslim terrorists') had the tables turned and they had all the power.... holy mackerel,,, things would be way different.

New York would be Leveled. Not a sole would be left alive. The nuke bomb would be strapped to somebody and would be hand delivered.

Here is what scares many people about the terrorists operation out of the middle east..... they seem like the sorts that if they could,,, they would wipe out all human life on earth in the name of their god. They would not care, as they feel that their religion would reward them in heaven for doing so. Needles so say, this is a disturbing thought process seemingly shared by powerful and dangerous people all over those countries. It scares Americans. All people react to being scared. Americans just tend to have huge reactions to thinking they will be wiped out.

Answer 3

Read Imperial Hubris by Michael Scheuer, chief of the Bin Laden Analysis section at the CIA. Old Bin himself says his uprising is a defensive reaction to Western attacks in the middle east. How far will they go? Will they stop if the former Muslim lands are reconquered from Spain to the Philippines? Everything is not black and white. However my question is can these traditional societies remain in the 7th Century or turn the clock back to it?

Answer 4

yes and no and yes

but who is it thats encouraging young men to blow themselves up for 72 virgins, thats the reward on offer

if it were true the whole world would be doing it, not to mention the imans themselves

they hide behind the scenes and sacrifice these men for their own sick beleifs

let me give you a question

The prophecy of the Judeo Chrisitan Messiah was that he would walk throguh the gates of Jerusalem

if he is not the messiah, and muslim has nothing to fear, then why are the gates stoned shut, and why is there a graveyard inbetween them and the rest of the city in an attpempt to desecrate the ground so the messiah can't walk there

if eh is returnnig from heaven to clean up the earth do you think that would stop him


bottom line Muhasmmed said you can kill the enemies of islam

anyone who is not islam is kuaffar

and a kuaffar is an enemy of islam

christ said love your enemies, and forgave them as he crucified them

judge the religeon not on the words of the church or the mosque but on the words of the prophets

christ preached peace and forgiveness even when they killed him

Muhammed did quite the oposite

no one has to defend Christ's peaceful way

Muslims always have to proivde answers for muhammeds actions as they were not ways of peace

so whose peace r u gonig to accept

One that says kill your enemies

or one that says Forgive them so that i and the father can forgive you?

which sounds more peaceful

not which one sounds more satisfying, but which one soudns more peaceful

thats the problem with our religeons

satisfaction vs the way of God

Christ says there is no marriage in heaven

muhammed says theres is marriage

Peace vs satisfaction, your religeon feuled by your earthly desire, or by the peace of the Lord?

Answer 5

Who cares what Muslim terrorists are responding to. I cannot think of anything that would justify their routine targeting of innocent civilians while avoiding confrontation with anybody who can fight back. Terrorists glory in the maiming and killing of small children, in the children disabled for life by their attacks. Honest warriors try to avoid civilian casualties, and mourn those that do occur. Honest warriors give aid to the wounded even of their enemies. Honest warriors try to assist the civilians whose lives have been disrupted by war.
I have no respect for anyone who practices terrorism.

Answer 6

Calm down lefty. You are right. It's American Foreign policy that is to blame. It is our policy not to be ordered around by a bunch of foreigners led by religious leaders who insist we become an Islamic nation. If we would change or policy and help the Islamic radicals to destroy Israel and finish what Hitler started with the Jews and also surrender our freedoms and be ruled by the radical Islamist then the terrorist wouldn't be necessary.
