I know a girl in Perth, one of her friends was badly injured, 3rd degree burns.

Australia has been helping america, so they retaliate against australia.

these people are a bunch of animals. if large factions of my religion were intent on blowing themselves up and others as well, it would be time for me to seriously question my beliefs.

define 'large'? shouldnt they be your beliefs....





but yes.....the lack of internal condemnation (and not just public condenation) of these attacks or this mentality is what bugs me the most and confirms to me that islam needs to revert back to its pre 20th century roots or something. you cant condemn every single muslim for the actions of what are still a minority, but for their lack of condentaion for it.

i'm getting rather sick of people saying these extremists are 'just the minority.' you act as if several million psychopaths are just a handful of 'bad guys.' maybe so in the US, but not abroad. have you people missed the countless calls for jihad from top clerics in iran, iraq, saudi arabia, etc? if anything happens to them, they consider it an 'assualt on islam' and start to make threats of civil unrest and other attacks. are you not familiar with the palestinian maxim, "no jews between us and the sea."

danielson, are you not even paying attention to what is happening in your own country? did you not hear about the LARGE gathering of militant muslims in britain, calling for muslims to overthrow of your government and to turn it into a muslim state? from what i've been reading, you guys are having quite a bit of problems with the sudden influx of these people.

my point is, if a bunch of my religious leaders were calling on me to go blow myself up, fly planes into buildings, and murder people at random, i would start seriously questioning the religion.

im sceptical at what the media reports.....yes there are lots of demonsrations going on and people dancong in the streets when some attacks happen. but then it is a minoritymaking a lot of noise. on sep-11 there were far greater numbers of people in iran ALONE who held a 24hr candlelight vigil for those who died. yet 50 or so people in palestine were chosen to be shown, the huge number of people who turned up in iran ignored

as for how many of them accept whats happening and dont care or refuse to condemn it publically, privately and among other muslims.....i suspect the numbers there are much higher. whehter or not the majority....my brain says no, my gut says yet. but maybe thats just the effect of the media bombardment on me. Asfor the muslim world being 'tetchy'....yes they are. some of it is justified given what the western world has done to them, when they were essentially unprovoked....lots of people died out there. but yes i do acknowledge too many things over there result in fuss and botherbeing made, and the fact that their religon prohibits the support of non muslim states in miltary action against islmaic states is idiotic in my view when u;ve got dudes like saddam around

as for my particluar country....yes it does worry me. u also realise the same thing is going on in your country. and every country there are large numbers of muslims. yes, it does worry me. yes it also worries me their numbers are so high. yes in the back of my mind im fearing a lot of civil unrest, and also wishiong the goverment would stopposturing so much about immigration and actually do something substabntive whether it be relaxing laws or tightnening them

i wouldnt convert for that and other reasons, but im saying so what if somone elses beliefs said go and do those things. its what the indvidual says that counts. yes islam does actually say there willbe a war between believers and nonbelievers. but not all of them think its comng within our lifetimes, not ll of them suscribe to the war rhetoric

and ultimately are we any better? we're sanctioning war in iraq when everyone from the UN to their weapons inspectors are saying its not entirely necessary. our governments have stripped us of our rights, slowly errode at our autoniminty and have waged secret wars on 'our' behalf for the beck and call of industry killing so many innocents, and we still suscribe to the fct our country is a democracy?
