OK. I was in school with a bunch of Muslim guys and still have a few as neighbors. Seemed like good folks. I mean real good people. Is this like the Germans and the Japanese? That is, good folks until you get a bunch of them together? How the hell can folks hate on Radiohead? Damned good thing the fans weren't gay or some such. The news: Link: http://www.yahoo.com/news/islamists-attack-radiohead-fans-turkey-091839421.html?nhp=1

"Istanbul (AFP) - British rock group Radiohead on Saturday condemned "violent intolerance" after Islamists brutally attacked customers at an Istanbul record store attending an album release party, angered that the event coincided with Ramadan. A group of about 20 men accosted and beat up customers and employees at the Velvet IndieGround music store in the city's hip Tophane district on Friday night for drinking alcohol while listening to music during the Muslim holy month. They trashed the store, hurled insults and broke up the release party of the album "A Moon Shaped Pool"."...blah blah...

Please don't tell them that Metallica wants residuals for their songs and wants the police to fine you if you download their stuff for free for Christs sake. They'll be on a 2 month rampage. Where's Fattrad, I think that we may have a Clash of Culture instance here. There may be more examples a well other folks can post up......I heard that Iran finally allowed Queen music to be played there. 15 years after Freddie Mercury's death. Bold, and progress too....but they still hang all male homosexuals if and when they catch them. I wonder what would have happened if Queen had played a concert there and while they were in the middle of "I want to Break Free" someone whispered to the head Ayatollah as the band played "Hey, did you know that singer is homo"....

Your knowledge of homosexuality in Iran is lacking. You have a point, but its based on uninformed heresay which over-simplifies and under-mines it.

But i agree in general. The persecution of sexuality anywhere is a crime against nature.

Well, this is a good conversation. Actually used to climb with a Muslim a bit ago, but we parted ways for secular reasons. I guess. Long story. Had almost nothing to do with me.

Anyway, very prescient topic. Muslims need to sack up. "good Muslims" need to be as vocal as possible in this regard. I understand that not everybody is willing to stnd up and declare,"I'm a good Muslim", or whatever.

But I need to hear Muslims LEADERS AND PRACTIONIONERS make no bones about the fact that they despise these people amongst them. They need to turn them in.

Again, pretty difficult.

The FBI has been neutered with respect to actually targeting a legit Muslim target, or lead. They had to tread different waters when dealing with a certain religion.

THIS IS THE F*#KING PROBLEM!!! None other.

You cannot quell an enemy if it is not defined. We are at WAR with radical Islamists whether YOU OR THE PRESIDENT LIKE IT! THEY WILL KILL YOU IF THEY CAN.

These are FACTS. Radical Islamists have declared war on the West. They will never kill us all, but they;ll kill as many as they can as long as they're still breathing.

They have done this before, and are following the same path/doctrine. It's you or them. They will not stop until they're confronted. It won't be knights on horseback this time. It will be .223 rounds in the face and, appropriately named, Hellfire missiles on yer convoy.

Everybody hates Muslims. Except for the good ones.

Let's hope we don't come this, but we're pretty close.

Start by replacing the word 'muslim' with 'religious' everytime its used and you start to see the 'war' has been on for sometime and that the side of reason is loosing, by the simple metrc that in the US religion is gaining more influence.

Japans a good example. They were a lunatic violent lot with fundamentalist religion at the core of their national ideology. After excising all of it and allowing religion no higher status than private practice they calmed down, invested in capitalist democracy and turned on to fetish, sexuality and fun.

The point is that you don't take ownership for the exact thing that you demand of others.

I'm sure that you don't monitor the sites where Moslem leaders post their repugnance of the terrorists, but you don't post about your repugnance for Westboro, and their CELEBRATION of violence against US Service people.

You want us to draw conclusions about them, but not about you, for exactly the same supposed actions.

Arguably the largest mass killing in very recent times was the Rwanda Genocide, where nearly a million people were shot, beaten, stabbed and hacked to death, in a period of around three months. At that time, very few of the perpetrators were Muslim, the vast majority were Protestant Christians.

One lesson to be learned is that regardless of religious affiliation, a certain percentage of people are capable of this sort of violence, if provoked.

Robert Pape, who made the largest most comprehensive study of suicide bombers, found that the group with the largest number were the Marxist Tamil rebels of Sri Lanka. He also found that among all suicide bombers, their motivation and feelings were primarily political, regardless of religious association.

If you look at the Orlando bomber, you find that he was deeply disturbed and prone to violence. He expressed anger at the Americans for killing innocent people in Afghanistan. But it does not appear to me that he was motivated by reading the Koran and acting in accord with it.

Donald Trump claims that Muslims will not turn in fellow Muslims, but a high FBI official has contradicted this, saying that they have gotten many valuable tips from Muslims, and consider the non-violent portion of the Muslim community to be a valuable ally in their efforts to prevent attacks.

aspen, good point.

The problem most people have is that our current perp d'jour of genocide and indescimanite killing all have the Muslim faith as their Most Common Denominator (MCD). I just made that up.

But it is a fact of reality.

So, if you're going to profile for future events, you would have that in your bag of tricks as an investigator (unless you're FBI, then you can't mention Muslim ). Start with Muslims, the MCD.

This is where the phrase 'radical Islamist' came from. It was so we could separate our Muslim friends from our Muslim enemies.

It is actually a term of solidarity, if you really consider it.

Yes, exactly. Radical Islam uses religion, as much as it has to do with political ideology. They twist it into a political ideology.

It;s a cult really. Radical Islam.

The failure of Americans to understand Islam is, I feel, due their belief that everyone thinks as they do. They don't. Muslims want their laws to be Gods laws as interpreted by theologians like Ayatollah Khomeini, not a written law like the US constitution. That's why generally, it's a terribly stupid idea to invite Muslims from the middle into our country to be citizens. Their loyalty will be different than ours. Always. Not talking "ALL", talking "many" Muslims.

Perhaps the preeminent mideast scholar in the world, Bernard Lewis, came up with the phrase, "Clash of Civilizations" popularized by Fattrad here on ST before he was axed. (which Lewis later modified to be less harsh sounding).

If anyone wants a good read about Islam, start here: http://mosaicmagazine.com/essay/2016/06/the-return-of-bernard-lewis/

"...in 1954, he declared democracy to be “the most difficult form of government to operate, requiring certain qualities of mind and habit, of institution and tradition, perhaps even of climate, for its effective working.” The Muslims had none of these—in most cases, not even the climate"...

Oh stop.

So because some nutcase who commits an atrocity claims to believe in "Book of Fables B" you expect the other billion plus readers of "Book of Fables B" to verbally take time out of their day to denounce the nutcase?

Why?

If the problem were "Book of Fables B", read by billions, the entire world would be on fire.

maybe if we combined threads we could start to understand that its not.. religion, or Germans, Italians and Japanese, or white people versus black people.

especially this post by Buddhastalin..

Come on up to Reno during street vibrations and have a sample. Next biggest gathering of this crap outside of sturgis. Always a mess, always a majority of them arrogant, unruly, with complete disregard for the city that welcomes their stupid asses. Always biker gang violence that does not get media coverage, (street vibrations brings a lot of money to town you know), violent crimes of all sorts for that matter.

Ive been harassed, chased, spat at by these pieces of sh#t for merely being on the road at the same time as them, and then working in the trauma unit, had to help keep them alive after their shenanigans landed them at the level 2 trauma center.

And I cant put an aftermarket exhaust that is the same dB level as stock on my subaru.....

Ive taken care of the po bobs, the mongols, the vagos, hell angels, branded, all of em....becuase i had to by law.

Even worse are the 'everyday people' that ride that get all outlaw when the gathering is on, they really get a surge of rebel and go all apey.



Its people.

Everything that the above list has in common is people. People have a streak of meanness, selfishness, ignorance, hatefulness that has to be overcome.

The main way we do that is one person at a time. Everyone has to learn to take responsibility for their own inner pissant.

Maybe you missed my point. I know FBI agents can utter that term. I was referring to their training manuals, and tools they use to focus in on groups.

And Yes, the FBI falls under the jurisdiction of DOJ. Doesn't that make my point?

The FBI stopped using the terms 'sharia' and 'jihad' in their training material for detecting potential radicals. Do you deny this? Now DHS is probably even worse.

I have no doubt that there are many more good people there under Comey. But he is fighting uphill battles in getting what he wants done.

All I'm saying is that there are forces within our government who are being told to tread very lightly when it comes to obvious suspects.

And their statements regarding investigations have to meet certain protocols for 'sensitivity'. "Lone gunman" instead of radicalized terrorist seems to be getting more common.

Could be a Buddhist monk self-immoliating for Tibeten rights at that gay nightclub in Orlando Florida. SOmetimes Buddhists have been known to speak in tongues and shout "Allahu Akbar" in Pashtun before BBQ-ing themselves publicly.

I've considered that. And the opposite. That I used to drink a lot because I was not allowed to express certain things I observed.

Most people don't have the attention span to sit and listen to me. More importantly, most people fail to think critically and logically. That's why all my discusion with a-holes degenerate. They twist my words and don't follow the logic of what I'm trying to illustrate.

Bluering, I was merely clarifying what wasn't perhaps obvious in the statements made. I don't know you, or how you parent. You stated you are angry, have no tolerance for imperfection, and aren't any fun since obtaining sobriety. Those are words you wrote...

Awww, bluering told me to f*#k off. Should I be hurt? Do you spend the majority of your days telling people to f*#k off because they don't understand your oppression or your righteous anger? Life must be tough,huh?

Not fun, angrier, more intense, expect people to do everything correctly. Little tolerance for bullsh#t.

Trump's entire candidacy is based on bullshitting. He knows almost nothing. You have loved every second of it since the birther movement.

True dat!

But don't single him out for special condemnation. Hillary's entire political career has also been based on bullshitting.

What we have before us today are two candidates that have spent their lives as bullshitters. Voting for either one means that you're eating sh#t and calling it the very smoothie you actually really wanted.
