I was having a discussion with my uncle and my father about the current situation with terrorism and the Middle East. During the discussion, I kept emphasizing that the majority of Muslims are good people and probably don't support terrorists and their actions. But then they said that they're all keeping quiet, and that by doing that, they're indirectly supporting it. By ignoring it, it's going to continue.
Then, they went on to say that in order for the terrorists to commit these acts, they need money for weapons and other equipment. Who provides it? Right after 9/11, millions of Muslims across the US were caught having connections to al-Qaeda, and many of them are in prison for it. So why aren't "good Muslims" speaking out? Is it because of fear, or are they quietly supporting it? |

i'm sorry kiddo i dont wanna burst your fantasy-bubble, but american soldiers have killed way more than 23 civilians. all i can say about that site is it is a straight up lie and propaganda that has obviously worked its purpose on u. how could we only kill 23 civilians when we were initially bombing whole f**kin cities?
QUOTE a person that holds a sword up to your throat and threatens to kill you if you don't convert? ahhh u must be talkin about the indians and africans deemed savages who the white man had to save by converting them to chrisitanity, otherwise killin them? well i wont pick u apart piece by piece but overall it seems u are pretty defensive of chrisitanity. this is fine, only it seems u dont really have a strong grasp of history. christians have had their share of slaughtering ppl just as muslims have and so on... islam gets a bad rap for spawning terrorists n wat not but christianity has spawned such violence as the KKK and hitler it just depends how u look at it |
