What should happen and what might happen are two different things. It would be hard for anyone to drop a member of their family in it without a lot of pain and soul searching. Until that situation arises no one can answer truthfully as to what they would do.

Re: One Step Too Far
Ah SPUGGIE _J! But kash claims that Islam rules his life and Islam does not promote killing.
It is the fundamentalists’ interpretation of Islam that sanction suicide bombers. So there should be no need for soul searching. If there is then it shows that kash’s HUMANITY is overriding his belief in Islam.

many muslims have been killed in this 'war on terror' yet there is no minute of silence. when isreal blows up a building killing many innocent people its on the news for one day and when theres a bomd in israel regardless of casautly its on the news for days even weeks. also minute silences one or two years on.
and yet many say muslims are not the victims.
yes every muslim should promote Islam but its not a major part if it, its not one of the five pillars of Islam. just by letting someone know my name can be classed as promoting Islam. i dont have to force it on people.
|
So that gives muslims the right to bomb the capital of the country, killing innocent people for no apparent reason?! Because the UK isnt giving minute silences for every killing in Isreal?! Thats pathetic.

The only people causing 'terror' are Muslims!! Eleven people were charged with a plot to blow up several planes yesterday, guess what.. they were ALL Muslim! Fair enough if it was say.. Christians blowing Muslims up, Muslims would have every right to be annoyed and wanting to cause terror but its MUSLIMS who are causing the agony! So you cant complain!
If you, and many other Muslims are so bothered about whats happening in Isreal, GO out there yourselves and do something about it. Dont blow up the UK public transport!
:engsmil: You live in the UK. So respect it. Stop treating it like a sh*t hall.

If all of the human race followed what their religion laid out we would not have the problems we do. People will always interprate what they want from religion the same way Henry VIII did in order to marry and produce a male hier. If Kash's humanity overides his beliefs then he is as human as the rest of us but that does not mean he let it over ride his Islamic beliefs.

Re: One Step Too Far
Jambutty certainly mixed a bottle with this thread, what amuses me is that
when we left India the brass band played us out, then they followed us.
to date they dont seem to want to return, maybee introducing "Shia Law"
will relieve the immigration problem, and mighnt promt the "ethnic minorities"
to try thier luck back home. Happy Abdul day.

Re: One Step Too Far
A true follower of the true Islam (not an interpretation of it) would have no option but to tell the authorities if he knew that someone was preparing to commit an atrocity.
We didn’t leave India Ianto.W., we were THROWN out. We just tried to make it LOOK like we were leaving voluntarily.
Unless our government pays heed to what is happening the ethnic minorities will become ethnic majorities.

Thought someone might come up with this, but my point was really would one Muslim actually report another Muslim for planning atrocities? Does the 'brethen' still support/keep mum no matter what. They have plenty to say to condemn these acts, but is there any action ?
Maybe this is how the plot was discovered in the first place, but have the feeling was not so..some of the families of those accused must have known .. hope I am proved wrong.
I have no doubt that, in the same situation, I would ring the authorities, not only to save a loved one blowing themselves up, and others, but the hope that they could be helped with their mental instability.

sadly i doubt it very much was talking to a muslim who has taken over a newsagent recently only this afternoon was gob-smacked at what he said QUOTE the local muslims have given me a lot of grief since i came here. the reason= he served in the queens regiment in iraq he had also served in northern ireland previously(nothing was ever said about that)he told me i am muslim but i also am british,which pleased me no end - pity his locals dont feel the same.

What do you suggest to counteract your fears?
Enforced sterilization?
White only breeding programmes and baby farms?

If he wants Christmas Day off he has to take it unpaid, even though he might have unused holidays, because the rules of the company are that no employee is allowed time off in December.

How many adults get christmas day off in reality?? not many esp women.

If a member of my family did that I'd have no hesitation about dropping them in it. It all depends how much loyalty you have to your country. I think I have a lot.
