Stripped of Their Humanity The abuses in Iraq are just the latest in a long-standing pattern of dehumanizing Muslims. By Omid Safi The images of Iraqi prisoners being tortured by American soldiers are painful, hurtful, and agonizing. They strike at the very heart of decency and humanity. And yet they are not unexpected or isolated developments, but rather a continuation of twenty years of American foreign policy centered on dehumanizing Muslims. http://www.beliefnet.com/story/145/story_14556_1.html
These abuses are taking place because the victims are muslims, I am sure you wont say the same if Muslims were involved in torturing Americans ! Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Once again you just posted a piece of news in the religion forum (as invert nexus already pointed out). You offer once again no discussion of your own. Can't you go to your own forum. I am sure it is filled with abused muslims who need help.
The american army has muslims in it. Did they receive the same treatment? If not, it (abuse of iraqi muslims) was not because they were muslims.
Yes, Muslims in the US army were abused and falsely accused of spying !! the case of Yusef lee, the Muslim chaplain and Ahmad Halabi, the air man in the army are great examples : http://query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F30715FD3D5E0C758EDDA80994DB404482
You mean like poor Nick Berg who was carved up like Sunday roast? Loud_Muslim, kindly take it to the proper forum section, instead of ranting with your constant unwanted bollocks in this one. You'll find many appropriate threads in the world events section that will suit your propaganda needs better than the religious section. If you have trouble finding the link, let me know and I'd be glad to point it out to you.
Or like the hundreds of iraqi muslims TORTURED TO DEATH at the hands of the American terrorists ?? http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/may2004/051504torturedtodeath.htm
Well Loud_Muslim, there's no point mentioning their religious beliefs as part of it. You might aswell just say "Iraqi's tortured to death".. I mean, you don't see everyone saying "a christian American had his head chopped off". Religious preference is not a part of it, you just like to keep bringing up the religious aspect to try and make out that you're personally being victimized. I suggest you get over the paranoia. However, once again I will ask that you take this to the correct forum section, then I'll happily debate the issue with you there. It would be respectful and corteous to all on this forum. I know, I know - you demand their respect before you even consider showing them some - and that's why you have very few 'friends' here, if any. Life does not work like that.
Speaking of abuses and long-standing patterns of dehumanizing Muslim women, what is your view of Samira Belill? You demonstrate such impotent cowardice in your continued refusal to address this question. How sad. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Wow, Proud Muslim. Give you credit there for figuring out the issue at hand, as if the millions of Americans didn't figure this out before you? If it wasn't for the US, know one would have known it happened in the 1st place. Kind of like what goes on with the Muslim terrorists who like to send out little boys and girls with bombs on them in the name of God. What God is that? God of all devils perhaps? Proud Muslim, quit trying to use examples of how who did what to who, because, it is to the point where it is useless to try and figure out who is wrong and will only result in an end game of no one wins. Unless, you think nukes are the answer, and then you know who wins, but the world is polluted and raped anyhow.
So when muslims kill, it must be in the name of God, but when Americans kill, they kill in the name of Satan !! duh ? You are too cowards to use your nukes, everyone knows that.
"So when muslims kill, it must be in the name of God, but when Americans kill, they kill in the name of Satan !! duh ?" - Proud Muslim That depends. If you are talking about war, Americans kill in the name of the USA. For freedom and independance. Sometimes, the reason doesn't fit the action. Similarly but moreso wrong the reason: Instead of using your dedication to country, you use dedication to your God. Therefore, I must wonder what your God thinks to kill innocent people with young adults strapped with bombs. Funny, how your media, government and society doesn't speak out on the issue. Either way, killing is wrong. At least in the Christian religion. Therefore, the US is at fault too. But, your religion is the whole reason for killing. And... this is why your thread is getting moved to the religion section. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
How sad your hypocritical media is concentrating on ONE single story and not reporting on the discriminationa and Abuse muslim women get from FRANCE itself !! Your media love to report such cases, but cases of western abuse against muslims are never reported!! HYPOCRITES France’s Hijab Ban ‘Anti-Muslim’ : London Mayor http://www.islamonline.net/English/News/2004-02/10/article07.shtml http://www.geocities.com/headscarfban/ And now the French say they want to Force women to remove Hijab, calling it womens rights! How liberated does she look?
"You are too cowards to use your nukes, everyone knows that." I won't go there, except to ask if you know any country who has used nukes? I couldn't think of any country that deserved nukes, except if Nazi Germany was about to take over or a terrorist nation bent on killing innocent people every day.
