Turkish People Boo moment of Silence for Paris, Chant Allah Akbar

^^How does admitting 10,000 Syrian refugees amount to cultural suicide? We are a nation of 325 million people. Do the math.

Turkey is no longer our friend?

Perhaps we should have some data on the assimilation of refugees from the past year.

Turkey is a NATO ally. I'm sure many Turks have fond feelings for the US. It is also very clear that many Turks would prefer to fight the Kurds and Assad rather than ISIS.

I think you are trying to change the topic now that it is clear that nobody is buying what you are selling.

Well, the majority of Americans are buying what I am selling, and all I am selling is a healthy dose of skepticism of the wisdom of the U.S. importing large numbers of people who hold anti-western beliefs. I suppose I am biased in that I have a lot of Jewish friends and considering there is not a single Muslim majority country where jews can freely practice their religion. But of course, that is racist to point out.

Really? :shock:

Bosnia

I needed a laugh. Although perhaps you are right. There are 500 Jews left in Bosnia. Perhaps there is even a temple there.

Bosnia is a stretch. Muslims are 40% but Christians, Serbs and other religions are 60%.

"Serbs" is not a religion.

Well, Muslima, it would help your point if you could name one.

I am not Muslima, but both Turkey and Iran have Jewish communities.

Azerbaijan is majority Muslim and very tolerant of Jews, and is actually BFFs with Israel.

The former USSR is very intolerant of Jews. Obviously, they are allowed to practice, and the state rhetoric proclaims peace and love. Things get pretty heated on the ground though.

Arab women in Lebanon stripping topless and burning ISIS flags in protest of Islamist extremism.

Boom.

Now shut the fuck up already about how you think everyone in the Arab world is a terrorist or ISIS sympathizer.

You don't know shit.

Straw man. No one has argued all Muslims are terrorists. In fact, I would be the first one to admit Muslims bear the brunt of Islamic Extremists, who kill far more Muslims in a day than Westerners in a year. And most Muslims just want to be left alone to work, and love and live and raise kids.

But a not insignificant percentage are extremist, committed to political violence, hold illiberal attitudes, and when not assimilated, have the potential to wreak havoc on society. See Europe. I truly feel bad for the majority of Muslims who are decent people who bear the brunt of this. But its not up to America to commit cultural suicide in the name of blind political correctness.

Good for those protestors. The Muslim world needs a reformation.

This sounds right to me.

This is true of Russia and Ukraine, but not Georgia and Azerbaijan. Turns out a region that spans 15 countries and 11 time zones has some diversity.

Furthermore, Turkish soccer fans ALWAYS whistle to show their support. This is misleading and furthering division. Someone yelled "muslims suck" during a moment of silence for Paris before the Lions vs. Packers game on Sunday, you can find bigots everywhere

Islam is a belief system, not an inherent, personal trait. Belief systems can suck. So muslims can suck. That's not bigotry.

Poor women will get stoned to death by psycho honor killings if their masks slip. Notice they are wearing masks just like their sisters. they are not truly free. What a world.

Wahhabism, a messianic radicalism that arose in the 18th century, hopes to restore a fantasized caliphate centered on a desert, a sacred book, and two holy sites, Mecca and Medina. Born in massacre and blood, it manifests itself in a surreal relationship with women, a prohibition against non-Muslims treading on sacred territory, and ferocious religious laws. That translates into an obsessive hatred of imagery and representation and therefore art, but also of the body, nakedness and freedom. Saudi Arabia is a Daesh that has made it.

Saudi Arabia sucks. The house of Saud must fall.

Because guess what? SA banks ISIS!
