"Treatment of Mamdani shows Islamophobia is still socially acceptable"

BRW - I’d rather live in the 13th century than the 21st

I'd rather you did, too

 

[OODA_Loop]

Why does this scare you?

How is it less scary than religious fanatics that have taken over this country?

What Baptist church has broadcast the beheading or placement of someone in a cage and immolated for their stand against Bible Study and fish dinner night?

 

[Anathema]

I'd rather you did, too

I’m a man in the wrong time and always have been..

 

[JoeB131]

Case open

You are backpedaling.

You originally accused Reagan of calling BIN LADEN a freedom fighter which is one of your typical bald faced lies

Reagan called the Afghan Fighters Freedom Fighters, including Bin Laden.

Case closed.

The only reason why so many Arabs went to Afghanistan (The Afghans certainly didn't want them) was because the CIA recruited them.

Truman nuked millions of innocent people. Case closed.

Nowhere near that many. The death toll for Hiroshima was 90K to 160K, and the death toll for Nagasaki was 60K to 80K

 

[JoeB131]

Emotional theatrics don’t equal historical accuracy. The U.S. backed Afghan resistance, not a theology -- we didn’t send Bibles, hugs, and kisses to Kabul.

No, we sent a shitload of weapons to religious fanatics. How did anyone think this was going to turn out well?

Bin Laden wasn’t our creation — he was our enemy long before he made it official.

He was totally our creation who turned on us, just like Saddam did.

The lazy, moral grandstanding, dressed up as historical insight, is hysterical.

Trying to excuse Reagan's actions because you just can't admit fault in one of the Few Presidents your side had who wasn't a failure is lazy.

As far as I can find, Bin Ladin never fired a shot. He leveraged his relations in Saudi Arabia to fund terrorists in Afghanistan first against the infidel Soviets, then against the infidel westerners in general.

He never flew an airplane, either, but we still hold him responsible for that.

Um, have you seen all the executions we have down in Jesusland? We are at a record this year, 35 people executed.

Treatment of Mamdani shows Islamophobia is still socially acceptable​

by Zainab Chaudry, opinion contributor The Hill - 11/01/25
There is a hatred in America that still dares to speak its name — loudly, publicly, and without fear of consequence. It doesn’t hide behind euphemisms or coded language. It mocks, it smears and it flourishes in the open. That hatred is Islamophobia. Today, it remains one of the last socially and publicly acceptable forms of bigotry.

Muslims are a community that leading political figures can still slander on air, that journalists can frame as suspect by default, and that candidates can use as props in their culture-war campaigns without major consequences or jeopardizing their careers.

Comment:
9-11 was the worse mass murder hate crime in the history of America.
Mamdani attempted to make the Muslims the victims of the prejudice in the 9-11 Islamic terrorist attack.
No Miss Chaudry, the 2997 people who were mass murdered by Islamic Terrorist on 9-11 are the true victims of hate.
The people who vote for Mamdani are endorsing hate

The left is has become so disconnected from reality they can't see how intellectually dishonest it is to confuse honest criticism of policy positions of a Muslin and so-called "Islamophobia".

 

[Lisa558]

When conservative universities set up “No Muslims” zones and chant “Death to Muslims!” - and with the presidents of these universities saying such calls for mass murder of Muslims can be OK “in context” - THEN we will talk about Islamophobia.

Until then, cry me a river.

Islam is incompatible with Western culture and philosophy and religion and democracy and life.

Christianity and Western culture are routinely discriminated against or even banned in much of the Islamic domain.

Until such time as Islam undergoes a Reformation and sets aside Fatwa and Jihad and reciprocates, it remains undesirable.

As things stand now a number of Western countries have admitted a viper (Islam) in its midst and are in some danger.

Islam is free to oppress its own people and bury them in Sharia and Honor Killings and Jihad and Fatwa in its own domain.

Leave the Christian-Western domain to Westerners.

The US has executed 41 people so far this year.

And not surprising, all of them in Red States.

And if you think suffocating a man for 15 minutes with nitrogen is somehow "better" than executing them with a beheading, then you are probably morally confused.

Sorry, doesn't work that way.

And when you start getting rid of "undesirable" religions, where does it end? Hindus? Jews? Mormons? Catholics?

 

[Kondor3]

Sorry, doesn't work that way.

So far...

And when you start getting rid of "undesirable" religions, where does it end? Hindus? Jews? Mormons? Catholics?

No problem... we declare it a "terrorist philosophy" rather than a religion and the problem goes away

 

[Missouri_Mike]

I grew up in a family where you can’t wave an arm without hitting a teacher or a pastor. Both sides of my family. I’m well aware of what Christianity did. You also know what it’s done?… slaughter every man, woman and child in Jerusalem during the First Crusade. More importantly its entire theology is a system of lies. It took me 27 years to realize that.

BRW - I’d rather live in the 13th century than the 21st

Amazing how people bring up the Crusades without explaining why there was one to begin with.

Which of those four are trying to force you to join and live under their laws?

Amazing how Christians don’t mention that Saladin guaranteed every Christian safe passage when he retook Jerusalem.

Case open you claimed he specifically called bin laden a freedom fighter.

he did not

That’s a common myth, and it’s false. The CIA funded Afghan resistance groups through Pakistan’s ISI during the Soviet war — not Osama bin Laden or his Arab volunteers. Bin Laden arrived years later, spending his own fortune to build separate camps. The 9/11 Commission and Pulitzer-winning journalist Steve Coll both confirmed there’s zero evidence the U.S. ever trained, funded, or armed him.

You are thinking about “ Hollywood” beheadings that are over in an instant like a guillotine. The reality is a slow process with the murderous terrorist slowly sawing through the neck of his victim. I’ll take death by nitrogen any day, especially since the victim is unconscious from hypoxia in less than a minute.
