I won't even bother to list all the Christian-based charities that exist. Let me google that for you
Anyways, the United States is a SECULAR nation, so I don't know why you are saying we are a Christianity-based anything. That is just ignorant . . . again.
Even if you are correct, we are not PURPOSEFULLY targeting innocent civilians, beheading them, etc. WTF is wrong with you?
Wow. I don't even know what to say about such ignorance. It's hard to believe that people like you even exist seriously. You must be blind, deaf and dumb.
Many Arab Muslims see Turkey as oppressive against them! That is a fact. Turkey has had it's own share of attacks. How foolish you look!!!
So what happened to the deal?
And what is the point anyway? Christians are far richer as a group than Muslims. So.......?
Also, it doesn't say how big these charities are, how much money they spend. The US is far more likely to have Christian charities because the govt spends less on giving money to charities than most other 1st world charities, so people are more likely to give money personally to charities, and seeing how many Christians there are. Remember there are not that many Muslims in the UK, 2.7 million, many of them young, and yet there are tons of charities.
I know what the US is. It's a country without an official religion, but one controlled mostly by Christians.
Let's see Bush's main men.
Attorney Generals. John Ashcroft, Alberto Gonzales and Michael Mukasey. Two Christians and a Jew (who was in for just over a year)
Secretary of States. Colin Powell and Condi Rice. Two Christians.
VP. Dick Cheney, Christian.
Secretary of the Treasury. Paul O'Neill, John Snow, and Harry Paulson, two Methodists and a Christian scientist.
How many Muslims? Er.... well 0.6% of the nation is Muslim, I don't see more than 0% in there. I might be wrong, i don't think so.
3.9% of Americans are in non-Christian religions. That's much lower than the UK which is a Christian country, official.
You keep going on about beheadings and things. Like I've said before, the US causes havoc in ways that are more controlled. Why? Because it has the largest military spending, by far, in the world.
List of countries by military expenditures - Wikipedia the free encyclopedia
The US spends more than 1/3 of all military spending spent by states. They spend more than the next eight countries combined, and that includes two countries which together make up about 1/3 of the world's population in India and China.
Why does the US need to behead? It doesn't, it doesn't go in with guerrilla tactics, it goes in with overwhelming force.
I'm not defending those who behead people on TV, it is barbaric. But I also happen to think that a country going around making regime change a normal policy is also barbaric. Barbaric in terms of morality and intelligence.
You might think different, you might not be able to get away from the fact that your govt is inherently wrong, because the media in the US makes out that it is acceptable. The president goes out and finds reasons to make it acceptable (oh, they have WMDs, which were never found but who gives a fox? that was AFTER the event, he only needed the excuse to work to get to war.)
You're calling this ignorance. It's not ignorance. it's based on a lot of knowledge, and it's based on a free thinking mind which refuses to accept the official line, which you seem unable to tear yourself away from.
What the hell are you talking about with Turkey now? Jeez, Turkey uses violence against the Kurds, I didn't say it didn't. But you're talking about using violence makes them bad, but not if it's the US, because when the US uses violence, somehow it's different. Oh please.
You're coming up with excuses for each different thing, and getting in a right mess.
For one thing, if some of those nuts EVER had WMD, they would not hesitate to use them. THAT is how crazy they are. I've read many things about Islam, so no it is not biased thinking. YOU defending this barbaric way of life is what is ignorant here.
No, my country tries to AVOID civilian casualties at the cost of putting our OWN soldiers lives at risk! You are pathetically WRONG again.
Oh, now you are saying that Turkey is the "bad guy." Lol! Right, everyone is against the poor Muslims. Perhaps so, and the reason is because they are barbaric with uncivilized customs and practices that do not fit into our modern world. They try to make excuses for their failures by blaming everyone else because they cannot face the fact that it is their own stubbornness and refusal to coexist that is the problem, and all of this stems from their ignorant religious beliefs.
