Excellent.

It's a shame that this isn't in the Quran - but hey, it's a nice thought though.

MOD_EDITED (you can start new thread about it)

C'mon - give me (MOD_EDITED) a smile, it's not a lie is it?

Thanks for the edits and suggestions Melika!

Perhaps it is and I misunderstood your reaction to the categoric, clear and complete statement by Hamas on their stance on the Holocaust which contradicts the snippets (some before, some after this Hamas statement). my bad. Glad we cleared that up then. (As I said, you can still do a search for your...

Moving on - do you have an 'official' number for the numbers of Palestinians detained by Israel since 1967? Did you check out the calculations made by 'Elder of Zyon' and notice he can't divide two numbers together? I haven't been able to find an alternative estimate of the numbers of Palestinians a...

So, evading the question and asking another question about a song lyric. Ok - so, I'll assume that you DON'T think that adults who die defending their countries necessarily all go to hell, but that it is not beyond the realm of possibility that people may believe they go to heaven. 'without Palestin...

You're quite welcome. Always good to hear how others think. I disagree that fighting Israeli aggression is equivalent to being anti-Semitic - but I would agree that those who use the Protocols as an excuse to 'drive Jews into the sea' are indeed anti-Semitic. I just draw a distinction between those ...

shafique

Your quote below got me thinking. Protocols is clearly beloved of anti-Semites and an anti-semitic piece of work (duh!?). But when it used in fighting the jewish homeland it is not antisemitic anymore, but anti-Zionist. I presume you mean 'Israel' when you said 'the jewish homeland' - that is what I...

Welcome to this section of the forum! Yes, I agree anna - no excuse for violence against anyone just because one is expressing an opinion. Certainly no need to try and hit them. We'll leave aside the fact that the guy wasn't actually hit by the protestor (and was injured by contact with a policeman)...

^ No we like to enjoy the sights to ourselves - we're a bit selfish that way! The 'dark rag' is for when the ladies enter your sight lines! ;) You guys like to share out the delights - and as I've said, I'm in awe of the men who persuaded the ladies that 'flaunting' it was a sign of liberation! The ...

Actually, there are guys who say that every Sunday at Speakers Corner, there even anti-Zionist jews there most weeks as well. But, leaving that aside, are you avoiding the question: If we apply it the other way round - if someone, say a Palestinian, says it is the 'jahood' or 'jew' who is killing us...

They're driving like they own the road! (Perhaps they do?)

Crazeee stuff. I'm actually quite impressed with the driving on 2 wheels guy though - impressive skills. Doing it on a SZR - even with the entourage, not so impressive.

Yes, I do want your answer - that is why I asked the question (and it was because you called 'Israel' by a different name). Ok - so it is ok for you to use a euphemism for Israel, but others can't. Hmm. (Note I didn't use the word 'fight' - but I note that you did. Do you really think when Muslims s...

A couple of articles on the lengths the pro-Israel lobby is going to to discredit Judge Goldstone (himself a Jew). One of the shameful incidents was when he was 'persuaded' to not attend his grandson's Bar Mitzvah out of fear that there would be protests. (He lives in the States, but is South Africa...

Gold stones, glass houses Sasha Polakow-Suransky, 10 May 2010 The Israeli government has it in for Richard Goldstone. Ever since Goldstone, a Jewish South African judge, issued a report in September charging Israel (and Hamas) with war crimes during the January 2009 invasion of Gaza, Prime Minister ...

Another thought (I really can't think why I'm thinking of this.. ;) ) - what about 'Holocaust Denial'? In some countries it is a crime (eg Turkey - where it is a crime to believe/write/talk about an Armenian Genocide, and France where it is a crime to deny the Armenian Genocide). The US and Israel o...

Why let facts get in the way of a good prejudice eh, eh? Let me know if you have other nursery rhymes you want me to decipher? Next you'll be telling me that all English people are demonic for celebrating the arrest, torture and execution of a Catholic Terrorist each year on Nov 5th when we burn eff...

shafique

Please look up what I said before about your snippets from wiki (and Fox and Memri etc) and compare them with the - I repeat -

complete, comprehensive and clear statement by Hamas.

None of your snippets are complete, especially the ones after 2008.

I just realised that Melika had deleted my summary of eh's extremist views and asked me to start a new thread on it - I didn't immediately realise this was what was edited (Mel in future you should make this clear by doing something like: Original; Melika is a great moderator, very fair and a great ...

shafique

Melika suggested I start a new thread. Based on what has been posted in this forum, the most extreme religious fanantic we have here is event horizon. This is based on three threads - 'Biblical War Crimes' and 'Christian Terrorists' and 'For eh - Baruch Goldstein'. This thread just brings the points...

Genuine question - is the punishment for rape the same as for fornication under UAE law? And BR's question above - isn't the punishment for men and women for fornication the same under UAE law? IF the lady had broken the law and fornicated voluntarily, this should not lessen the crime and prosecutio...

shafique

I do know indeed - but that's why I wrote my last line. That said - reading the thread title, I expected the article to say that the rapists had not been charged - but I really can't see what the prosecutors have done wrong here (given what the law of the UAE currently is). I don't know what the law...

FD - The occupied territories are just that - occupied, not 'disputed' - I refer you to the UN and other international bodies and their pronouncements. The Israeli tactics of trying to call them disputed (and taken up by some American politicians) has been noted and commented on before. Land not occ...

shafique

Bora - are you saying you know that the prosecutors have brought a baseless case of fornication before the courts? You must have more information than I do - I couldn't make that determination based on what I've read above. Whether the lady is found guilty or not should be based on evidence.. as I s...

shafique

Berrin - do you object to non-Muslim residents of the West Bank and Gaza claiming property that they have deeds of?

Perhaps you may have said this in one of your longs posts (I have to admit, I haven't read all of them)

Both punishments, or all punishments to all parties?

shafique

FD - there were points that were new to me in the quotes I gave today, hence I posted them again. I thought the reference to Pakistan was pretty well put and made the point quite clearly. But I particularly liked the analogy of Russia invading and occupying California and then saying that there was ...

shafique

A fair summary.

Let's wait and see what the truth is.
