This is absolutely true, in our culture, people say they are sorry. Muslims never say they are sorry, except perhaps to other muslims. So no matter how badly you got them, caught them red handed, they will still point blank say it wasn't them, mistaken identity, its a conspiracy.
In our culture........
It is a case of 'us', and 'them'.
Western culture, is nothing like Arab/ISLAMIC culture, ....and it is a case of,
'never the twain shall meet'.
If we don't want Western culture to be destroyed, by Arab/ISLAMIC culture, then
we must speak up, and condemn
the lies which moslems speak.
WE MUST SHAME THEM [moslems], ...WITH THE TRUTH, ......ABOUT THEMSELVES.

Quote:Shame vs. Guilt
The Western culture, is guilt based.
The Eastern culture is shame based.
For Easterners, everything is about image and how others see us.
The opposite of guilt is innocence.
If your ethos is guilt based, you have an inner police that stops you from doing wrong because doing wrong makes you feel guilty.
If your ethos is shame based, all you care is to preserve your image.
The opposite of shame is honor.
You can do wrong but as long as no one sees it, your image is not tarnished and you can still be seen as an honorable person.

the difference between shame, and guilt based culture, islam Quote:"How to Beat Jihad
....Shame vs. Guilt
Islamic cultures are shame based. Shame is a painful experience. To avoid shame you have to hide the source of shame. This means you must protect the image. Your entire self esteem and self worth depends on that image. When you are shamed you become violence. Violence is one way we humans deal with shame.....

You can do wrong but as long as no one sees it, your image is not tarnished and you can still be seen as an honorable person. In a shame based culture, wrong and right have no meaning. It is all about shame and honor. If the stain of shame is removed, even if it means the murder of your own daughter, honor is restored. These are two very different worldviews. Unless we understand them we will not be able to make sense of Muslims and their minds."
