Quoting Daydreamer: So, you think that only China is reprehensible for its crimes or Arabs too? Or, do you think that one justifies the other? |
"Daydreamer, I think the point here is the same as of anything else - sharing information."
We are just sharing information..

Of course one doesn't justify the other DD. Again this is an old issue and it's quite insulting that you would think someone would post such an article for that reason. It's sometimes useful to bring everyone back to reality and illustrate how unattractive and /or horrific behaviour permeates society throughout the world. The article about British soldiers in Iraq for example, it's an awful thing and nothing to do with the religion of the soldiers, but it's dreadful just the same. I wonder what those actions were done in the name of? Not peace I hope.
The sad thing is you know people don't cite these incidents as a "one justifies the other" exercise.
Catwoman is asking the question "What's wrong with Islam?" . . . "I ask What's wrong with the world today that we are all at each others' throats and don't let issues drop?" Geezz!
OK I'm letting it drop

Sharing information is a good thing, no doubt about it. Yet, I see a huge difference between how members react to what is being told about their countries/fellow-believers. If you give info about US/EU soldiers raping a child, everybody (including US/EU members) are appalled and demand justice for them. If we discuss honour killings, enforced minor-old pervert marriages, Muslims in this site (Alameda in particular) say that info is either a Jewish intelligence manipulation or goes back to 16th century Europe saying it was similar then.
It is not that we don't see flaws in our countries, we've often criticised their policies and some customs. It is this "we're pure as snow" attitude of some members here that worry/disgust us. I don't know what is wrong with admitting that Turkey/Islam have problems that should be solved. If Turks/Muslims don't see it then this world will never be a better place.

I know about that. Also, like I've said before, I have all the right to express my opinion  You may bark up every tree saying what you don't like and so can everybody else - it's a public forum
