|
|
An author who's name is Barber wrote a Book in the Name Jihad VS McWorld.
The points of the book:
* McWorld = Unions and international as McDonalds, who spread their influence and the media who spreads modernism, and makes the tribal relations less tight.
* Jihad is the reaction of this tribes to McWorld. They should be eliminated from the root. As it's written in the book, the Muslims don't want the Islam to be as the religions in the western world who are saparated from the state, they want it to rule the state. So they attack those who they think are bringing it.
* In this strrugle the Islam will loose because what power does the Imam has against soap operas?
None. Eventually the Jihad will be defeated because of the spreading Modernism. |

Finally! You've said something I somewhat agree with. Modernism and Westernization will cause their traditionalism to crumble. |

1st time we agree about something?
But, sometimes it's being mixed, with Jews, there are many Religous Jews who are very modern but they keep tradiyion, but I don't talk about the Reformic Jews. |

It's okay to keep with tradition... but the Arabs' tradition is much, much different and they let it interfere way too much with their government.. and stuff. |

Yeah, about the Arabs, yes.
I've been to few Arab Villages last year and to the PA, and their whole culture is based on religion that contrdicts Modernism.
For example, my Father met a Palestinian client to sell him something on friday, and we were told to come in a special hour, and when we left, the whole villages were starting to get empty for walking to the mosques. |

Yea.. their traditionalism does contradict a lot of Modern/Western ideas. That's a main reason why they hate the U.S. because our Modern and Western ideas do not follow with their traditional, Muslim ideaology. |

Locke, they hate everyone who don't follows them, that's exactly how so many Muslims had converted to Islam in the beginning of it's conquests, because they conquered other cultures and forced them to convert.
When they could, they've done it, even to Christians and Jews. |

and Why do they hate everyone?? because we are not traditional Muslims!
mm yes.. the Muslims have forced people to convert - especially in the early years when the religion was new. And if it hadn't been for Charlemagne who defeated the Muslims, all of Europe may be Muslim today. |

Thanks God for Charlemagne.
It amazes me, that they still cry for Spain.
They conquered it from the Christians, and the Christians reconquered it from them. |

Well, the Christians aren't any effective vote, and those who are want to stay under Jewish controll, because sometimes the Muslims slaughter them and we defend them as it was in Mrar Village. |

Yes... I'd rather the Jews have it rather than the Muslims.. just because they scare me. Geesh, I make such horrible generalizations. |

It's not a generalization at all, they destroy those who don't agree with them, if they don't submitt, oh that's a mistake....
After the Israeli Inedependence war, when the Ancient city surrendered, they sacked Synagogues. |

I don't think all Muslims are like that. :wink: I think people automatically assume they are all terrorists.. which is just not true. Many in fact do not support the actions of terrorists...
Of course there are plenty of Muslims that are fanatical and hate everyone who is not Muslim. And those fellas are brainwashed idiots :-D |

The fanatical muslims are a minority. Unfortunately we have this tendancy to judge a whole population by looking at the actions of a minority.
In fact muslim people are extremely friendly, you'd really be amazed. At some moments I didn't believe people could be this nice. At least that was what I retained from Egypt, and also Tunisia.
It's funny though to read some peoples' reactions concerning muslims. They go on and on about how much muslims hate everybody, and keep pointing out the negative aspects etc etc. And then you wonder, geez, who are these people who supposedly speak out against hatred, and then suddenly show nothing but hate against a whole population? In the end, who is really brainwashed? |
