I feel sorry for all the Nigerian-looking guys who are now going to have their 'packages' examined!

Perhaps they'll be an increase in customs/immigration official applications from San Francisco! ?

Cheers,

Thanks - I thought you might dig up a Muslim Imam who was part of the Nazi regime - well done. Now, watch carefully - these Muslim Nazis are indeed Muslim terrorists (I'm assuming they did kill civilians). Now - the question for you is whether you agree that the German Christian Nazi soldiers are Ch...

Well, my challenge to you was quite simple - quote me saying what you accused me of.

Since you haven't - I repeat, this is another 'all mouth, no trousers' moment.

Thanks for confirming the fact that QB1 is a fondly held belief on your part.

Still waiting for answers to 18CBeliefs 1 and 2. 1. Do you believe the Bible is wrong to exonerate the Romans and blame the Jews for killing Jesus? and 2. Is the Bible literally correct to say that the earth is only a few thousand of years old? For me - I'm with the 21st century Christians who answe...

18th Century Belief no2 (in the thread on 18th Century Beliefs) is about Young Earth Creationism and whether our young friend, eh-oh, is one of those who believe in this particular interpretation of the Bible. Here's a definition from Wiki: Young Earth creationism (YEC) is a form of creationism hold...

Oh don't worry just like any other troll, he' strying to seek attention and spark controversy. Because its in only the virtual world anybody pays attention to them. In the real world they usually turn out to be pimply, pocket protector wearing, thick spectacled nerds. Troll of Zion in real life htt...

A pretty gruesome return to Biblical punishments - 'an eye for an eye' indeed!

Good idea Berrin.

We've had a number of instances where historians and authors quoted by eh-oh have confirmed/clarified that the Jizya is a tax and that the taxes paid by Muslims worked out higher. Indeed there are threads that were devoted to what Jizya is.

Perhaps you meant the SS, such as the Imam who was awarded the Iron Cross for his duty towards the Third Reich, and not the Werhmacht, which was, for all intents and purposes, the same as the German army in WWI? But no, I don't consider him a terrorist - that is a horrible abuse of the word by mode...

shafique

Berrin, there may well be some Muslim equivalents of the Christian 'YEC' - there are some pretty ignorant 'mullahs' out there - but I have to admit that, like you, I've never come across any. It is most interesting that eh isn't admitting whether he's one of those who believes the Bible is literally...

Between 2001 and 2009: Number of Muslim Convert Terrorist carrying out attacks: 4 Number Killed by these: 146 Number Injured: 120 vs Number of non-Muslim Convert Terrorist carrying out attacks: 242 Number killed by these: 255 Number injured :388 Only 238 behind now, but no problems - I'll help you ...

It looks pretty grim - keep safe Mel.

A pretty gruesome return to Biblical punishments - 'an eye for an eye' indeed! Cheers, Shafique Nope - don't think so. I thought Christians and Jews believed that 'an eye for an eye' was a commandment from God? My reading of this OT commandment is that the punishment shouldn't be harsher than the c...

Well, we should remember that Israel was instrumental is setting up Hamas (when it viewed Fatah/PLO as the enemy) and that the CIA were instrumental in setting up Al Qaeda, and US and UK special forces trained them - when they were 'Mujahedeen' and fighting the Ruskies. In fact, as Chomsky points ou...

It's a joke - I agree. Compare the donations to UNRWA with US military aid to the same Arab countries and I would wager that it would dwarf the donations to UNRWA by the West. Then also compare it with the military aid to Israel and we can see where the priorities are! If only democratic will of the...

If these were classified as crimes of 'apartheid' - then yes I would condemn any country carrying out apartheid. Must be hard to try to hide your double standards. Not as hard as your obvious pre-conceived ideas about anyone who is critical of Israel and a Muslim to boot! I wonder what your comment...

I totally agree that land beyond the 1947 borders drawn up by the UN do not constitute the country of Israel. The land Israel captured in 1948 and was allowed to keep, did become part of Israel./quote] Lets not forgot Israel captured this land after Arab aggression, trying to annihilate Israel. I s...

Sure thing eh-oh. I'll bump the threads on Jizya and/or start new ones.

Glad to see that you are willing to examine some of your newer quaint beliefs.

Cheers,
Shafique

Sure thing eh-oh, let me know which 18th Century beliefs you think I hold (and the ones I don't we'll share a laugh at those who continue to hold them). But where is your reply to the question posed: 1. Do you believe the Bible is wrong to exonerate the Romans and blame the Jews for killing Jesus? a...

shafique

I'm not sure you answered the question posed: But back to the German Christians - are you now arguing they aren't 'Christian Terrorists' but just good Nazi soldiers (or as they say 'Stormtroopers of Christ')? Cheers, Shafique Or are you saying that these Christians were 'just' war criminals ? Cheers...

shafique

(This was posted in an older thread, but a new thread for eh - notably so he can see the quotes from Kennedy etc - I have separately posted verbatim quotes from Kennedy and other historians/scholars which reinforce the definition given below. The Muslim also paid taxes and had military responsibilit...

As I said, Pauline Christian theology states that Jesus changed Mosaic Law, but not all who believe in Jesus take this view. Some take Jesus at his word when he says he did not come to change the Law. But the point is moot anyway - I wasn't arguing whether some Christians believe this law from God i...

Well, in one of the fairest elections in the Arab world, the population voted out the corrupt party in power and voted in the party who promised to help the people.

The reward for doing this was international sanctions though - so much for supporting democracy!

Well, I didn't know that the CIA was instrumental in setting up al Qaeda. The only person who believes that seems to be a British reporter, IIRC. Let me know how the US set up al Qaeda, exactly, and if the US ever directly aided the Arab Afghans - my understanding is that the Arab Afghans were fier...

shafique

Interesting also to note the reason AQAP (Al Qaeda in Arabian Peninsular) give for the attempted attack: Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) said the plot was to avenge US attacks on militants in Yemen, a US monitoring organisation reported. I expect eh-oh will be quoting QB1 and writing to AQA...

Here's a quote from a former UK Foreign Secretary, the late Robin Cook: Osama bin Laden is no more a true representative of Islam than General Mladic, who commanded the Serbian forces, could be held up as an example of Christianity. After all, it is written in the Qur'an that we were made into diffe...

As I stated, all taxes are unpopular.

Are you just against taxes in general, or do you think that asking adult males to pay less tax than Muslims paid in return for security and exemption from military duty is too discriminatory?

Cheers,
Shafique

shafique

Or are you saying that these Christians were 'just' war criminals ? Well, that's what they were charged with crimes for. I don't recall anyone at the time referring to the atrocities of the Germans and Japanese as acts of terrorism. They were war crimes. Were ALL the German Christians tried for war...
