That's quite the ignorence there. The 'diaper' you refer to is probably a turban, which is worn by sikhs, in the religion of Sikhism. And they teach their children how to use machine guns? Quite the generalisation there. Also, the burka is only mandatory is certain states, not by religion. You could move elswhere and still be worthy in the religion.

I don't know about anyone else but i don't need "PROGRAMMED" to hate Islam, I just hate Islam.

The advice i can give to anyone is to read the manifestoes, study their propaganda, study what they do, study the moderates, study the radicals, study what the "moderates" say about the radicals, read the QuRan, ask a Muslim what he thinks of un-believers, ask what he thinks will happen to un-believers, ask how they can predict the future and the return of the the Anti-Christ, ask why there's radical Islamist jew haters using Nazi propaganda, question everything.

It's been known that we've been programmed to hate muslims .

You guys ever wonder why the rest of the world hates us?

It's like a teen who thinks he's above everyone but has an inferiority complex and causes him to place the blame on others.

Yeah, the clue's in the title of the thread...fool.

I'd say that we're being programmed to be idiots. The fact that we are being programmed to hate muslims IS OBVIOUS.....yet for some reason, the American people (most) can't even see that. The most common sense things escape them because they have to much pride in the way they were. They don't want to see what's really happening because tey would then have to admit that our country is all wrong. American's.....THE GOVERNMENT IS ALL WRONG.....NOT THE COUNTRY, so it's OK to admit to wrongdoings. Yes we are programmed in many, many ways that are wrong, but we dont have to be.

So... when radical Islamists blow up 50 people for having the audacity to watch a World Cup quarterfinal we should feel pity for the Islamists and turn our anger towards western governments and the news outlets that report the story because they're "conditioning" us to hate Islam? Riiiiiiiiiight...

This thread is undeniable proof that propaganda knows no secular or ideological boundary...

Its hard to belive that anyone can belive that we are being programed to think Islam is a hatful religion,Ialam has been like this for 100s of years.The Muslims that fear the radical part of Islam are just now starting to surface and speak out,are they being programed?

Whats really scarry is all the posters that agree with this,there must be a hard push for shills to gloss over the true agenda of Islam.Before you ask what that is I suggest you read the Quran and research the people you so blindly defend,if you arenot Muslim and are not willing to convert you will be treated just the rest of the infidels.

at least someone caught up with the times.

Yes we are being "programmed" to hate muslisms, just listen to any radio station for 10 minutes, they will mention terrorists and b lah blah blah, people litterly believe that the muslism reilgion plotted the 911 attacks.

Thats just the biggest load of BS i've ever heard, say for explain a few canadians go into america and blow some s*** up because they feel like it, the canadian goverment has no idea, nor does anyone outside the group, the canadians either blow themsevles up or get caught them the americans all say "canada has declared war on us" but that is an illogical statment, it was just a few people who lived in the country, no acts of war.

So use that same example but in the situation of the muslisms (many of you refuse to think like that because you all so heartly believe that every muslism is a terrorist, which is the very point this thread is trying to prove)

BUt if you can think about it of the m uslism people, a few of thier people split off from the main group (5% of pop) to go blow up buildings, because many of them are too unintellgent to open thier minds to anything beyond thier reilgious belifes, so not only are we being programmed to hate them, but they are being programmed to hate us, why?

Lets look at both leaders for a moment, One Obama, a man who has the support of most of his people (corperations) while say Iraq....has no leaders anyway, infact muslisms have a bad view of americans and canadians now, because we went in thier country looking for invisible nuclear weapons that clearly did not exist (we steal oil)

Neither side is perfect, our species in general is flawed so we can never find perfect, it doesn't exist for us, so lets try to make something close, called tolerance, build something between us that brings peace and hope, not making exucses to kill eachother, thats just f***ing stupid.

If you think you have a noble cause by hating others then rethink what you want in life, realize what really matters not what others are telling you what matters, we all do this we s*** all over thier plans for WW3, or something like that, kinda sounded better in my head before i typed it all out but w.e its already typed out and now im posting just cause, im sick and tired of people hating eachother so i tend to rant

I've lived all over the world, including Turkey, the Middle East and Central Asia, so I know very well that all Muslims are not like the Taliban and Al Qaeda. People who think so are just completely ignorant and prejudiced, and do not know what they're talking about.

And I'm no fan of the Taliban, Al Qaeda or any group like that because I think they're really fascist, but I know from experience that they do not represent the whole Muslim world. Not at all.
