Charlie Hebdo Shooting: 12 Killed at Muhammad Cartoons Magazine in Paris[w:157,1217]

Re: Terror Attack In Paris [W:157]

I'm as secular and progressive as the next guy and certainly no friend to conservative Christianity but can we please, PLEASE, stop with this fiction that Islamist violence is at all comparable to Christian, Jewish, Hindu, etc extremism? It clearly isn't. I hate how we tip toe around the issue of whether or not there are unique problems at the core of Islam as it is practiced by vast numbers of people around the globe. Clearly there are and they need to be acknowledged.

AFP reporting the youngest terrorist handed himself in to police.
 
Re: Terror Attack In Paris

Yeah, that whole 'melting pot' **** and freedom of religion crap is a crock anyway. Who needs it?

It may be a melting pot but that is no excuse for stirring poison into the fondue.
 
Re: Terror Attack In Paris [W:157]

Also untrue. There was no intentional genocide of native Americans under the guise of religion (or anything else). You just dont know your history.

There absolutely was. It was called Manifest Destiny, a philosophy that this land belonged not to the Indians, but to the settlers, and that taking that land by any and all means was their God given right.

The majority are radical, but only a minority are actual terrorists. Drop the PC charade.
 
Re: Terror Attack In Paris

Says the marxist who see's religion as a direct competitor with his ideology (which is its own religion). :2wave:

Isn't that more communists like Lenin rather than Marx? Marx said that only in a true Marxists society would there be no religion, not because it was forbidden or something like that, religion would have disappeared because people no longer need religion as something to "drug" them into meek compliance.

No PC charade but reality. Most Muslims do not support these kinds of idiotic terrorist crimes.
 
Re: Terror Attack In Paris

It is a religion. Islam is a religion, the government of Islamic nations tend to intertwine religion and government.

Read a book.

The religion spread violently and established its own islamic govt where it went. Why dont you know these basic facts?

That isn't genocide. Try again.
 
Re: Terror Attack In Paris


Marxism (here) implies anyone who adheres to tenets of marxism, that includes many leftists of which communists are just one example. Whats the islam situation there?

Islam is more political than religious. You have erred.
 
Re: Terror Attack In Paris [W:157]

Says the guy who doesn't miss an occasion to talk about black on black crime when a thread is about police brutality.

Not true. I talk about police brutality...in threads that are actually ABOUT police brutality. That's an apples to oranges comparison. Muslims vs fundament it's Muslims. Black lives 'matter' when there is a cop or a white guy involved vs black lives matter always.
 
Re: Terror Attack In Paris [W:157]

Like the GOP and the Tea-party?

Since I have never seen either the GOP or TEA party advocate car bombings, I'd say no.
Where as a significant portion (well over a million) in France say that is acceptable.

Look at the US's most wanted domestic terrorists-its leftists and islamists-because they are the violent ones. :2wave:

Well, then you use the name of Marx falsely. Marx would never agree with communism and a lot of leftists do not want Marx in their society.

The Islam situation? That differs on the person you ask. If you ask a follower of Geert Wilders you may get the darkest possible answer and a lot of more liberal people will say that one has to make a distinction between extremists and normal Muslims.

A leading social democrat said today:


He also called the attack: "indescribable form of barbarism, of backwardness."

Hitchens, not a marxist. I'd ask you to read up, but you won't, ignorance suits you.

Hitchens was a marxist, you really should do some reading.
