Title: Re: don't mention Islam Post by greggerypeccary on Apr 4th, 2016 at 6:52pm No. I'm not about to limit free speech. You mention whatever you like. And, while you're focusing on beliefs (and words), I'll be concentrating on the murderers. |
Title: Re: don't mention Islam Post by freediver on Apr 4th, 2016 at 7:01pm
If we were to follow your example and refrain from mentioning Islam, do you think that would make our response more or less effective at preventing terrorism? Do you think that pretending it is a series of unrelated incidents is going to help?
I'll give you a non-Muslim hypothetical example to make this easier for you. Suppose we started seeing a spate of murders committed by people who openly admit they did the murdering because John Laws asked them to. Should we ignore this common link and potential cause of more murders and focus instead on punishing the murderers we catch really hard? |

I've just told you that you can say whatever you like. There is no way that I could have made that any clearer. Mention Islam, Muslims, burqas, bananas, boats, bigots, bombs - whatever you like. As I said: I'll concentrate on the murderers, while you concentrate on belief systems and words. freediver wrote on Apr 4th, 2016 at 7:01pm:

The truth of the matter is, I haven't suggested that you refrain from mentioning Islam. That is just a lie you've created in order to get out of the situation you find yourself in now. You mention whatever you like (Islam and Muslims included). Again, I cannot make this any clearer. freediver wrote on Apr 4th, 2016 at 7:27pm:
They're quite often young men, aren't they? And, as far as the suicide bombers go, I'd say insanity plays a bit part in all of their lives - wouldn't you? Or, are you suggesting that blowing yourself up, along with dozens of other people, is a sane act? |

To expand further on suicide bombings, they're taught in their madrassas and mosques there is no such thing as collateral damage because when you set off a bomb the infidels go to hell and any muslims killed go to paradise.

Allah guarantees that He will admit the Mujahid in His Cause into Paradise if he is killed, otherwise He will return him to his home safely with rewards and war booty." " hadithsunnah/bukhari/ #004.052.046 In the Hadith verse above, Mohammed is reported as saying that for a moslem, religious fighting, is the same as a religious devotion. i.e. Jihad [religious fighting], is as if a muslim 'fasts and prays continuously'. And in Koran 9.111, Allah guarantees that a Mujahid [religious fighter] will enter Paradise, if he is killed, while seeking to kill Allah's enemies. "Allah's Apostle was asked, "What is the best deed?" He replied, "To believe in Allah and His Apostle (Muhammad). The questioner then asked, "What is the next (in goodness)? He replied, "To participate in Jihad (religious fighting) in Allah's Cause." " hadithsunnah/bukhari/ #001.002.026 "A man came to the Prophet and asked, "A man fights for war booty; another fights for fame and a third fights for showing off; which of them fights in Allah's Cause?" The Prophet said, "He who fights that Allah's Word (i.e. Islam) should be superior, fights in Allah's Cause." " hadithsunnah/bukhari/ #004.052.065 hadithsunnah/bukhari/ #004.052.080i . In the Koran, Allah even goes as far as to say that moslems who choose to not fight [in his cause] [i.e. the 'peaceful' moslems ?] hold no favour with HIM!!! "Why should ye be divided into two parties about the Hypocrites? Allah hath upset them for their (evil) deeds. Would ye guide those whom Allah hath thrown out of the Way? For those whom Allah hath thrown out of the Way, never shalt thou find the Way. They but wish that ye should reject Faith, as they do, and thus be on the same footing (as they): But take not friends from their ranks until they flee in the way of Allah (From what is forbidden). But if they turn renegades, seize them and slay them wherever ye find them; and (in any case) take no friends or helpers from their ranks;-" Koran 4.88, 89 "Not equal are those believers who sit (at home) and receive no hurt, and those who strive and fight in the cause of Allah with their goods and their persons. Allah hath granted a grade higher to those who strive and fight with their goods and persons than to those who sit (at home). Unto all (in Faith) Hath Allah promised good: But those who strive and fight Hath He distinguished above those who sit (at home) by a special reward,-" Koran 4.95 i.e. Religious fighting is an obligation for all moslems. Allah views with disdain those who avoid this religious obligation, to fight in his cause. see also, Koran 2.76-78, Koran 9.73-85 |

ISLAM = = Jihad [aka religious fighting in Allah's cause] Orthodox, mainstream ISLAM = = never-ending warfare, by moslems, upon all of disbelieving mankind, in order to establish the political superiority of ISLAM upon the whole of the earth. ISLAM = = pursuing deception, lies, and political violence [against non-moslems], to establish the political superiority of ISLAM. Jihad = = deception, lies, and political violence [against non-moslems], to establish the political superiority of ISLAM. ISLAM = = moslem political violence and supremacism, pure and simple, masquerading as religious piety, behind a 'veil' of moslem deceit. More proof ? MOHAMMED'S URGING's TO MOSLEMS, TO ENGAGE IN TERRORISM [in order to pursue the objective of establishing the political superiority of ISLAM]...... "Allah's Apostle was asked, "What is the best deed?" He replied, "To believe in Allah and His Apostle (Muhammad). The questioner then asked, "What is the next (in goodness)? He replied, "To participate in Jihad (religious fighting) in Allah's Cause." " hadithsunnah/bukhari/ #001.002.026 "A man came to the Prophet and asked, "A man fights for war booty; another fights for fame and a third fights for showing off; which of them fights in Allah's Cause?" The Prophet said, "He who fights that Allah's Word (i.e. Islam) should be superior, fights in Allah's Cause." " hadithsunnah/bukhari/ #004.052.065 hadithsunnah/bukhari/ #004.052.080i AND..... Allah's Messenger said, "I have been made victorious with terror (cast in the hearts of the enemy)...." hadith/bukhari #004.052.220 Allah's Messenger said, ".....I have been given superiority......; I have been helped by terror (in the hearts of enemies):....." hadithsunnah/muslim/ #004.1062 QUESTION; ARE THERE MOSLEMS TODAY, IN THIS AGE, 'OPENLY' ENCOURAGING TERRORISM ? HOW ABOUT THE EXAMPLE OF AN 'AUSSIE' MOSLEM COMMUNITY LEADER ? These words were spoken by an 'Aussie' moslem community leader, here, in Australia [only a few years ago]. Google if you wish; "We want to have children and offer them as soldiers defending Islam." "There is nothing more beloved to me than wanting to die as a mujahid (holy warrior)." "Put in their soft, tender hearts the zeal of jihad and a love of martyrdom." "The peak, the pinnacle, the crest, the highest point, the pivot, the summit of Islam is jihad," "Kaffir ['unbelief'] is the worst word ever written, a sign of infidelity, disbelief, filth, a sign of dirt." QUESTION; Are there many moslems who are currently exhibiting a peaceful modus/modality, who are living within Western nations ? Of course there are. !!!!!!! But the 'peacefulness' of a moslem, says more about his present impotency to 'successfully' engage in political violence, ....rather than the 'peace loving' intent, of that moslem ! ------- > IMAGE...

I'd expect you to do exactly the same to me. I want you to. In a debate, you can't tell someone to go and buy a book to back up your claim. No one would take this seriously. If you've read the book, open it up and tell us what it says - then reference the book. To me, this is the issue here. I don't care whether you blame Islam or not.

The jihadi wife beaters and infidel and apostate beheaders are doing Mohammed's work. The kiddie fiddling Christians KNOW they are sinning against their own rules and so they are trying to cover it up. No Muslim is trying to hide that he is a jihadi wife beater and head hacker, the scourge of infidels. He allahu akhbars on top of his lungs, rather than be furtive and arse covering about it. |

Title: Re: don't mention Islam Post by mothra on Apr 9th, 2016 at 10:01pm
At the time of Muhammad's birth, women in 7th century Arabia had few if any rights. Even the right of life could be in question, since it was not uncommon for small girls to be buried alive during times of scarcity. In the Qur'an, it is said that on Judgment Day "buried girls" will rise out of their graves and ask for what crime they were killed. Part of Muhammad's legacy was to end infanticide and establish explicit rights for women.
Islam teaches that men and women are equal before God. It grants women divinely sanctioned inheritance, property, social and marriage rights, including the right to reject the terms of a proposal and to initiate divorce. The American middle-class trend to include a prenuptial agreement in the marriage contract is completely acceptable in Islamic law. In Islam's early period, women were professionals and property owners, as many are today. Although in some countries today the right of women to initiate divorce is more difficult than intended, this is a function of patriarchal legislation and not an expression of Islamic values. Muhammad himself frequently counseled Muslim men to treat their wives and daughters well. "You have rights over your women," he is reported to have said, "and your women have rights over you." Muhammad was orphaned at an early age. He once remarked that, "Heaven lies at the feet of mothers." As the father of four daughters in a society that prized sons, he told other fathers that, if their daughters spoke well of them on the Day of Judgment, they would enter paradise. Beginning from the time of Muhammad's marriage to his first wife Khadijah, women played an important role in his religious career. According to Muslim sources, Khadijah was the first person Muhammad spoke to about his initial, terrifying experience of revelation. She consoled him and became the first convert to Islam. She remained a confidant and source of support throughout their entire marriage. Though men commonly took more than one wife in 7th Century Arabia, Muhammad remained in a monogamous marriage with Khadijah until her death, when Muhammad was in his fifties. By then, Muhammad was working to establish a new community. In that context, over the next 10 years, he married several women. In some cases, these marriages occurred in order to cement political ties, according to the custom of the day. In some cases, the marriage provided physical and economic shelter to the widows of Muslims who had died or who had been killed in battle, and to the wife of a fallen foe. Of all his marriages, only one appears to have been controversial, and it was to the divorced wife of his adopted son. Only one of his wives had not been previously married. Her name was Aisha, the daughter of one of his closest companions. Aisha was betrothed to Muhammad while still a girl, but she remained in her parents' home for several years until she reached puberty. Years later, when absent from Medina, Muhammad often recommended that, if religious questions arose, people should take them to his wife Aisha. After Muhammad's death, Aisha became a main source of information about Muhammad, and on medicine and poetry as well. Aisha's assertion that Muhammad lived the Qur'an became the basis for Muslims ever since to emulate his example. Muhammad's daughters also played an important and influential role, both in his life and in the establishment of Islam. Most notable was his daughter Fatima, who is still revered by all Muslims, particularly Shiite Muslims. Following the Battle of Uhud (625), in which scores of male combatants died leaving unprotected widows and children, Muhammad and the Qur'an decreed that, in order to protect the orphans of such families, men might take up to four wives. The permission itself is surrounded with language that discourages the very thing it permits, saying that unless a man can treat several wives equally, he should never enter into multiple marriages. The usual supposition in the modern monogamous West-that Islam institutionally encourages lustful arrangements-is rejected by Muslims themselves as an ill-informed stereotype. At the same time, Muslim feminists point out that in various cultures at different economic strata the laws of polygamy have frequently operated to the clear detriment of women. Polygamy is an uncommon occurrence in the modern Muslim world. Today, Islamic legal and social systems around the world approach and fall short of women's rights by varying degrees. Muslims themselves generally view Islam as progressive in these matters. Many Muslim feminists hold the view that the problems presently hindering Muslim women are those that hinder women of all backgrounds worldwide- oppressive cultural practices, poverty, illiteracy, political repression and patriarchy. There is a strong, healthy critique of gender oppression among Muslim feminist authors and activists worldwide. It would be anachronistic to claim that Muhammad was a feminist in our modern sense. Yet the same present-day barriers to women's equality prevailed in 7th century Arabia, and he opposed them. Because in his own lifetime Muhammad improved women's position in society, many modern Muslims continue to value his example, which they cite when pressing for women's rights. http://www.pbs.org/muhammad/ma_women.shtml |

Most Muslims are going about their lives perfectly peacefully. Does that not tell you something? In the areas where there are war, there is tremendous amounts of unpalatable behaviour.

Islam teaches that a woman should get half of a man's inheritance and that her testimony in court is worth half that of a man's.

Islam teaches that a man can have up to four wives and as many sex slaves as he wants - Jewish, Christian or Muslims. A Muslim woman may only marry a Muslim man. The capture of female sex slaves in war, and the shortage of women created by Islamic polygamy, is a key strategy in traditional Islamic warfare and empire building, and is being recreated by Muslims today in the name of Islam. Islam rejects the concepts of equality on the most fundamental level. Women are equal before God, but sex objects before men. Quote:

And herein lies the tenuous limb from which the whole argument hangs. The Islamic religion/ Cult whatever is not a RACE, it is a Religion/Cult. Therefore, you cannot be accused of being a racist by disagreeing or disliking a religion/cult. Muslims come from many races, its like a cancer it spreads and infects every country. It is not from any one race, any one colour, any one country. If an Australian brain dead moron converts to Islam and I say I dislike Muslims, am I being racist against someone from my own country, of course not, that is impossible. But in order to run a guilt trip and manipulate circumstances and the law to their advantage, Muzzos play the race card, what a crock. The sooner we take them to task about this inventive little rort, the sooner we could approach this cancer for what it is and eliminate the biggest threat to human kind since Hitler. |

No. Racists don't judge people after getting to know their ideas and behaviours - to do so would be rational. Racism by definition is irrational. A racist judges someone to be inferior/undesirable/'bad' by default because of their outward appearance alone. In fact I would go further and say that racists/Islamophobes go out of their way to avoid understanding the specific ideas and behaviour of 'the other'. They prefer to put words into their mouths for them - based on well-worn stereotypes. Racism/Islamophobia is not just ignorance of the other - its very commonly willful ignorance. |

Belgian government official Yves Goldstein considers recent developments:
“Our cities are facing a huge problem, maybe the largest since World War II,” Mr. Goldstein said. “How is it that people who were born here in Brussels, in Paris, can call heroes the people who commit violence and terror? That is the real question we’re facing.” Friends who teach the equivalent of high school seniors in the predominantly Muslim districts of Molenbeek and Schaerbeek told him that “90 percent of their students, 17, 18 years old, called them heroes,” he said. But despite all of that: The problem is not Islam, he insists … It never is. Whatever the problem may be, Goldstein believes it can be cured – as Breitbart London notes – by greater exposure to Andy Warhol: “These young people will never go to museums until 18 or 20 – they never saw Chagall, they never saw Dalí, they never saw Warhol, they don’t know what it is to dream,” Mr. Goldstein said. :D :D :D :D :D :D The good Belgian Mr Yves Goldstein is gandalf, Mothra, John Smith, Karnal, and all the other 'the problem is not Islam, it never is' crowd here and across the globe. Yves Godstein - it's not a joke, unfortunately. |

On another occasion a woman came to Muhammed for help because her husband was beating her. She was bruised so badly her skin had turned green. Guess what Muhammed did to show the Muslims how to respect women? Muhammed turned sex slavery into an empire building industry.

Let's start with your own link, shall we? Muhammad b. Qais said (to the people): Should I not narrate to you (a hadith of the Holy Prophet) on my authority and on the authority of my mother? We thought that he meant the mother who had given him birth. He (Muhammad b. Qais) then reported that it was ‘A’isha who had narrated this: Should I not narrate to you about myself and about the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him)? We said: Yes. She said: When it was my turn for Allah’s Messenger (may peace be upon him) to spend the night with me, he turned his side, put on his mantle and took off his shoes and placed them near his feet, and spread the corner of his shawl on his bed and then lay down till he thought that I had gone to sleep. He took hold of his mantle slowly and put on the shoes slowly, and opened the door and went out and then closed it lightly. I covered my head, put on my veil and tightened my waist wrapper, and then went out following his steps till he reached Baqi’. He stood there and he stood for a long time. He then lifted his hands three times, and then returned and I also returned. He hastened his steps and I also hastened my steps. He ran and I too ran. He came (to the house) and I also came (to the house). I, however, preceded him and I entered (the house), and as I lay down in the bed, he (the Holy Prophet) entered the (house), and said: Why is it, O ‘A’isha, that you are out of breath? I said: There is nothing. He said: Tell me or the Subtle and the Aware would inform me. I said: Messenger of Allah, may my father and mother be ransom for you, and then I told him (the whole story). He said: Was it the darkness (of your shadow) that I saw in front of me? I said: Yes. He struck me on the chest which caused me pain, and then said: Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you? She said: Whatsoever the people conceal, Allah will know it. He said: Gabriel came to me when you saw me. He called me and he concealed it from you. I responded to his call, but I too concealed it from you (for he did not come to you), as you were not fully dressed. I thought that you had gone to sleep, and I did not like to awaken you, fearing that you may be frightened. He (Gabriel) said: Your Lord has commanded you to go to the inhabitants of Baqi’ (to those lying in the graves) and beg pardon for them. I said: Messenger of Allah, how should I pray for them (How should I beg forgiveness for them)? He said: Say, Peace be upon the inhabitants of this city (graveyard) from among the Believers and the Muslims, and may Allah have mercy on those who have gone ahead of us, and those who come later on, and we shall, God willing, join you. (Sahih Muslim, Book 004, Number 2127) Your article insists that this translation is 'wrong'. It insists that instead of 'hit' it should be translated as 'pushed away'. For some reason it does not give the entire alternative translation. See if you can figure out why. This is what it would presumably look like: He said: Was it the darkness (of your shadow) that I saw in front of me? I said: Yes. He pushed away on my chest which caused me pain, and then said: Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you? Even Gandalf concedes this one, but instead insists that he beat her because he loves her and did not want her wandering the streets at night. Trying pulling this one down at the local women's shelter and see how far you get. Your article goes on to do the same trick in a case where another man beat Aisha: Narrated Aisha: Abu Bakr came to towards me and struck me violently with his fist and said, “You have detained the people because of your necklace.” But I remained motionless as if I was dead lest I should awake Allah’s Apostle although that hit was very painful. In this case, he attempts to argue it should be translated as "poked" her violently with his fist .... that "poke" was very painful. Are you convinced by this Mothra? |

In both cases, Aisha explains that it caused her pain. Arguing over whether it should be translated as poked, shoved etc instead kind of misses the point, which is presumably why your own article that claims to "debunk" it never actually provides the full alternative translation. It just would not make sense. Have you always been an apologist for wife beaters? Or do you only provide this service for Islamically sanctioned wife beating? Why do you think that there is universal agreement among Muslim scholars that wife beating is permitted and they merely disagree on how hard you should hit them? I provided the second example to show there was a pattern of the author pushing "alternative translation" to such absurd lengths that they are not actually willing to provide the alternative tranlations. |

A re-write is suggested to Yves Goldtein: Muslims who have been allowed into our countries need to understand that their endless reliance on a false victimization — charges of “racism” when Islam is not a “race” — will no longer work. It is hardly “discrimination” to insist that Muslims must obey the same laws, observe the same rules, as non-Muslims. They have to decide whether to accept the identity of a citizen in a Western secular state that is now available to them, or to cling solely to their Islamic identity, the one that assures them that they are the “best of peoples” and admonishes them not to take “Jews and Christians as friends.” They need to understand that acts have consequences, and that the observable behavior of Muslims, including the terrorist attacks by those who justify themselves by quoting from the Qur’an, naturally has helped to form our view of Muslims and of Islam.
