Let's put it this way. if you make a f*ck up in your everyday life (not that you ever do of course) one that causes a great deal of problems for other people you should say sorry and admit your at fault.

Granted that in today's society people are rarely capable of admitting being in the wrong, they are more interested in their rights not their responsibilities you it comes as no surprise to me if you can't understand the concept.

Agreed.

But if some mad Scotsman decides to run amock and kill people, I'm not going to apologise for his actions by association of nationality.

Your point is hugely flawed

Yes - if I screw up (and I do regularly!) I apologise. But you're not asking for the terrorists to apologise, you're asking for the peaceful Muslim leaders to apologise. The same one's who've been working hard to build bridges with other communities, and the same one's who apologised after 7/7 - the same one's whose apologies mean nothing to you.

I don't expect anyone to do anything for the sake of it - that's just a waste of everyone's time and energy.

That's irrelevant. You clearly share the same views and, in connection with your comments on Israel at least, also condone violence.

So expelling all muslims through democratic means would be fine by you then?

No I don't condone violence, what I said was that when I see the war crimes of israel I wish they could taste some of their own medicine. I also said that this wasn't a serious wish or aim of mine.
Sadly, due to the maniacs running israel, I fear violence will be the only solution.

No, but if the whole country was pointing an accusing finger in your direction for whatever reason, silence would be interpreted as guilt.

LOL,

Richard, if the whole country was pointing an accusing finger in my direction for whatever reason they would be politely invited to **** off

They could interpret that as they wanted - their issue, not mine.

Rabid, this is what you actually said on the Israel thread:

"100% with Moses on this one, the world would be a better place if the state of Israel was wiped off the face of the earth."

That sounds very much like you condone violence, and it also reads as a "serious wish or aim" of yours.

I do understand that there are a lot of contradictory emotions inside all of us when stuff like this gets discussed, but you said what did just over a week ago.

Richard.

I do believe the world would be a better place if the terror state of israel didn't exist. That isn't to say I believe a large nuclear warhead fired from say Russia would be the only way to achieve it.
It might come to that though.

I have read it and don't remember anyone saying they supported terrorist action in the UK or the 7/7 so I would suggest that you are a liar a ****-stirrer and an idiot.

UB just because you watched the Muslim documentary on TV recently it doesn't make you an expert. Anyway anybody can make up stats to show whaatever they want and I'm sure Tony Blair has everyone in fear of our Muslims communities to keep as all feeling like we need this fascist government.

Fact is most of the problems in the Middle East were caused by the UK at the turn of the century when we shafted the Arab nations when working with them to overcome the Ottoman empire. We then broke our promises causing some resetment but generally we were respected for working with them. Then after the current farcical wars for oil and the backing of Isreal we have aligned ourself, foolishly, as the puup/ biatch of the US.

It is about time this country behaved like a major power and made some decisins that come from the UK not the US.

The longer we back Isreal the longer we become a target and our presence in Muslim countries and the co-alitions inability to create order makes us a target as people lives are destroyed daily.

I'm not for one second condoning the actions of the nutters but to suggest the whole community knows who these peple are is utter rubbish.

If we treat our Muslim neighbours with the contempt that some people show on here we will never integrate and these problems will remain continually. If you take the time to understand people its much easier to see thier ppoint of view and get yours across.

Short sighted, biggotted views do nothing for the debate apart from show how many poorly educated morons of British origin we have here already.

Read it again. Bomb the Pentagon? Slay the Zionists? That's Islamic Al Qaeda metality, same as 9/11, London Bombings, Madrid, same as terrorist action prevented today. Muslims can't pick and choose which particular atrocities are conducted in their name as some being okay, but some not.

They are all Islamic acts of terror. To argue anything different is to admit that there is as much conflict and chaos within Islam, as there is between Islam and The West. Probably there is

1 Person, moses said that to bomb the pentagon was OK as it is a military target in a war against the USA which the USA started. He used that to contrast with Killing Civilians which he said is clearly wrong as they are not military targets so why don't YOU read the thread again.

bros sorry i aint been on for a day

and thanks bros for defending me while i woz away

see bros. hoppy is a zionist leach and he wants the fire aff the zionists back and jumps on the bandwagon to condemn muslims when in fact, the majority of the wars muslims via christians is coz of the zionist jews and zionists as a whole who pushed the usa for war against the muslim nations and mr blair jumps in the bandwagon too

and they think u can slay the muslims and oppress them and they will just sit back waiting to be slaughtered, shows the blinkers and stupidity of the western bigot and behind all this r these so called hoppy style snidey zionist *******s

no one even knows yet if these plots about the american airlines r true and already we have the usual bull**** from ub the **** stirrrer stealing woprds from a national front site who play the part of the british national party now

its a joke lol

and the c;unts who condone words like hitler should come back etc etc, here

makes u sad, when someone condones what osama does, **** hits the fan but when someone mentions hitler or a genocide against a community coz of what a few boys had done, they all tolerate it

its sickness in their minds which r fecked up

i cant compete with a cancer of the minds of folk like ub and hoppy

i say let them burn in their rage and God willing, they will get their just desserts like hitler, ****'s and arial sharon did

Its not a few "misguided idiots" tho, its a whole culture which is simply incompatible with Western values. Nothing will change - they wont suddenly "fit in", unless we all become muslims.

Thats the whole problem, "multiculturalism" doesnt work on a large scale. If immigrants adopt the values of the culture they are join (and become absorbed into the host society), then that seems to work ok - and small groups of immigrants who stick together and dont cause problems also seem fine (Chinese/Hindu for example), but large numbers of people with very different values to the rest of society (ie muslims in western countries) clearly doesnt work, and isnt going to suddenly work ffs!!

How long do we have to pretend that it does?
