This just in: Muslims have no concept of respect for others

[Diello]

I wrote a column about NATO's co-optation of the Libyan Revolution for my university's paper.

The first response:


It's remarkable that nobody connects the dots...

Mohammed, Islam's prophet, ruled as a ruthless theocratic despot. Meanwhile, most anywhere we find Islam we see some degree of Mohammed-like rule, i.e., repression, fear, a cruel theocracy, strong-man militaristic rule, iron-fisted intolerance.

Why can't people make the connection here. It's not as if the highly touted and poorly named "Arab Spring" was likely to work among a people who have no concept or affinity for individual rights and respect for others.

Why can't people understand that democracy and Islam are incompatible? This is not a judgement, criticism, or anything other than an honest observation of and understanding of Islam.

:rolleyes:

Odd.

Apparently all of the Muslims I've ever met didn't get the memo on intolerance, repression and fear.

Maybe they're not "real" Muslims? :roll eyes:

And I always thought of them as "Nice, great neighbors but a little too religious with all that constant praying"

Good news, I'm the grand mufti of America so I can issue a response from the Muslim community to these statements:

"Suck our collective dick, it's not our fault you're to ignorant to understand us, our culture or our history. If this is how we're going to be treated, viewed or spoken to then kindly tell your governments to stay the fuck out of our lands and our affairs. But obviously your glorious 'democracy' is something only white people can figure out and we need you to teach it to us poor savages. Oh btw, you're cut off from our natural resources which is the sole reason half of your nations are even still afloat; that's right, daddy just took your trust fund away."

From al-Qur'an:

"...and when the ignorant address them, they say, peace."-Al-Qur'an 25:63.

Thus, peace.

I particularly like the ending: "Muslims are bloodthirsty lunatics who have no comprehension of the idea of individual rights! Oh, that's not a judgment or a criticism, of course. Just a purely neutral, objective statement of fact."

Update: someone else described the original comment as "a keen observation." God help us all.
