Trying to force someone to change is the very definition of pointless.



If one changes, he'll do that himself. With the help he accepts.

Article from March recently bumped, another interesting read.

Islamic State is the cancer of modern capitalism, by Nafeez Ahmed.


An excellent article on the matter.

Well, the ones on top has been dealt with lol.


the ones on top still exist, man. they just aren't as likely to throw on ghost costumes. a quick google search will show you that they're still alive and well, in the states. as well as nazi's and other groups who spread their pea-brained racist hatred out to the world.

they're just trying to divide the people, and as artu posted, that plays into the terrorist's hands. that plays into the government's hands, too;

Maybe in the US, where Muslim population is very insignificant and they want approval for their overseas foreign invasions.


the anti-invasion people aren't taken seriously in the u.s. they're seen as un-patriotic pissants.

protestors here in the u.s. aren't taken seriously, and are only targets for cops to practice their brutality on. which, granted, sometimes they deserve. but not always.

I won't be "anti-invasion" of Europe as long as it's all paranoia and hate with little basis in reality.

Because it's the wrong association.

Shouting white pride, or anything that would imply that you like being white will brand you a klansman, even if you don't agree with them in any way, just as being ultra-nationalist will get you branded a nazi even if you don't want to partake in eugenetics and building concentration camps.

People consider the Westboro Baptist Church as the representative of Christians (or at least to my knowledge) or the Catholic Church, of which they will consider pedophile priests to be the representatives.

The bad apples are always used to smear a group, whatever it is, it isn't a strictly Muslim problem, but works for everything, just try.

The more I read Yuval Harari, the more I enjoy him. The man has a gift to conceptualize things so accurately. This is a different answer to your usual why do people care more when 150 die in Paris but skip the page when something similar happens in Kenya question.

Yeah, Neraus and Fred, and many here smeared me about being a "nazi" even if I was just a patriot. So I respected their wish for a while...

Final word I had on this.

And as usual the former eastern bloc allies aside from Russia are too small in the big scheme of things, unless something like a war happens.

Not even joking. They don't care about us. Nor the Eu, nor Russia, not anyone else.

It's filled with people like everywhere else, except left with a lot of damage after a dictatorship. And most of us just don't give a damn about hot issues in the west unless they try to brainwash us just like the commies did. In a nutshell.

@Herry
The KKK was formed as the terrorist wing of the Democrat party, focussed on terrorizing blacks into not voting after the Republican Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation. The KKK was born from liberalism, not from Christianity.  The New Testament says anyone who claims to know God but who hates or murders is a liar. The KKK is anathema to Christianity.  Jesus taught us to love God with all that we are and everyone as much as we live ourselves. He said those two things summed up what God expects from us.

ISIS is practicing the sort of Islam Mohammad and his merry disciples practiced.

The KKK or any other group that hates another group for hate's sake or for "racial" issues, are not Christians. They don't decide if they're Christians, the Bible does.

Like it or not, it was the Republican aka Conservative party that was specifically against slavery, and not the Democrats. Though it must be said that the Democratic Party changed a great deal, for better or worse.


End of tale from me.


Elodin, correct me if I am wrong, please.
