Dude I have told you numerous times this isn't a list about what wars Islam started but what wars they are fighting


And they are fighting because...? Who were the prime instigators?




The Afghanistan war most definately has an Islamic extremist reason behind it. If Islam didn't exist do you think the Americans would be fighting the Taliban today? No of course not.


You think the USA is fighting Taliban because they were Islamic?

I recall that Powell said we had to fight Taliban because they were involved with 911.

Please show me the evidence that we went to war with Taliban because they were Islamic.

And also please address all the points I made in this post:

The prime instigators were America of course I agree with that point, but like I said this is a list of wars that Islam is fighting not wars that Islam started...

So if the prime instigators are USA, and the USA started these wars what does that have to do with Islam not being peaceful? Would it be that America instigated these wars and the self defense of these people you are misconstruing as not peaceful?

If I attacked you and then you tried to self defend yourself does that mean you are a violent individual?

Also please address these points

Sorry for the tough stance

Yes America did launch the Afghanistan war BUT you have to remember the Taliban are a group with extremist views of Islam, therefore the Taliban use that ideology to fight the Americans. They aren't afraid to die because they believe they will be rewarded in the next world.
The Taliban are definately not in self-defence though as they harboured Islamic Insurgencies such as al-Qaeda who in turn have attacked places across the West 9/11, Bali, etc.

Say I am the Taliban and you attacked me and I self defend myself does that make me violent? Dude the Taliban have a very dark history they aren't the victims like you make them out to be...

Ok I am USA and I attack you (taliban) as I am instigating as we have clearly determined

You (taliban) respond with 911

Then I (USA) respond post 911 with wars and then I say that you are violent as you have just stated.

That is incorrect because I (USA) hit you first and instigated first and everything after that is the fruit of the poisonous tree.




Dude the Taliban have a very dark history they aren't the victims like you make them out to be...



while this may be true does not mean that it is the Islamic ideology. If this was the case why arent all muslims in the world attacking us? Why only the taliban?

It is because we started and instigated these wars.

I usually don't take ATSers for being easily duped by the MSM, but WOW OP and any who agree... The religion isn't the war maker. These are political, territorial, and resource wars. Yes, there are fanatical groups used as tools, but this post is the most infantile assessment I've seen in a long time. If you believe these wars are caused by the religion of Islam, then you haven't been paying attention to the way the world has worked for centuries.

I cannot believe we're still on this.

One point I've never made about this topic before - every time someone crates a "Islam religion of peace?" thread, they fail to take into account what completely debunks their claim.

That Arab Spring.

How can you justify saying this nonsense, when for over a year Muslims risked their lived for freedom. They were fired upon, beaten, etc.just for their dissent and yet the civilian protestors across the Arab World (the masses) didn't raise a hand to anyone. Syrian protestors were shot for over a year before people really started defecting from the army.

So how does your 'Islam religion of peace' argument fit into that?

When a post like this is aired, you of course get the backhand across the jaw. Is it a slap or are the knuckle side used? I admire your bravery. You are close to the satanic verses. No one person can say for sure if Islam is revealed from Gabriel or from another angel alltogther. However the OP states a nice case about the origin of a war. Starting from that viewpoint, I would be inclined to think that, perhaps its the other way around. That it is the absense of a religion going face to face versus a cold maybe desperate machine. I really do not want to go further. Peace is attainable, once we get rid of the elements of our society, that put their [powerful] snouts in the way of everyday life. I advise you to grab this snout, wherever u see it and TAKE IT DOWN.

Some people don’t get it. We are talking about Islam the religion of peace. There are other threads if you want to discuss things like, who has blown up whom.
Some people don’t realize Islam is such a complete control system it provides much more information than the Bible ever could, for instance:

I can tell you without a doubt that you are less intelligent than me. Pardon my french but have you ever heard of relativity? That things can be relative? Did those scholars hundreds of years ago live on a planet with 7 billion humans? Had those scholars ever heard of equal opportunities, rights and freedom? Or did they live the simplest of lives, dying from petty diseases scholars of these days solve within a jiffy? You're a joke.

You are also inexperienced with Islamic culture and the way women are treated in Islam.

But defend what cannot be defended! After all, an actor might become a Muslim! Who are you to not become a Muslim after one of your favorite actors becomes a Muslim?!


You see, it is your intelligence that is laughable, it is your ignorance that sentences women to oppression.

Go live in Saudi Arabia with your mother and sister and aunt. Then come back and defend Islam the same way. Do it. Or go to any other country where Islamic law is the law, then come back and say the same things.

Your insistence to argue in favor of something you don't even have the slightest idea of, is laughable to intellect and ironic since you are laughing about the shortcoming of others' intelligence. Oh they have a word for that...for you and mr. The not-so-professional:

Delusional.

I'm a kind of person who people are the most honest with. So honest in fact, that many a time I hear the words: "I've never had these kind of discussions with anyone before" from Muslims. So honest in fact, that I hear from them how much they were raised to FEAR, FEAR and FEAR some more. And if they did not fear then they would get smacked until they feared.

Once you genuinely ask someone who has spent their ENTIRE life under Islam, why Islam and not one of the many other flavors the world offers, and hearing: "I don't know, in my day everybody did it and so it was forced upon me"...now that will change your look on a religion for ever. On the other side, I know Christians who have spent over 50 years being Christian - and they can explain EXACTLY why they became Christian, when they became Christian, how they became Christian. They never did it out of fear and they never did it to belong to a group - they did it out of love. Amazing really.

These people arguing anything else are simply ignorant. Sure, they talk to Muslims - but are those Muslims honest to them? I reckon not. Because there are characteristics that show in an honest conversation and I'm not seeing those in the vast majority of the pro-Islam arguments.

You are the OP are you not?

You called your Post 'Islam the religion of Peace? I don't think so...' did you not?

Of course you are singling out Islam, don't get me wrong, I think all religions are a waste of time, it just seems to me the tone being used in this thread by some people is attached to a familiar agenda...read into that what you will

I am afraid that the results of the Arab Spring has not been quite as positive as some would suggest.


• Egypt: The choice for 50 million voters is between the military and the Islamists (The Muslim Brotherhood). Over 3,000 Muslims attack Christian Copts in the village of Kobry-el-Sharbat (el-Ameriya), Alexandria. Hundreds of rioters attacked the campaign headquarters of an Egyptian presidential candidate who's up against the Muslim Brotherhood's candidate - Muslim Brotherhood blamed.

• Tunisia: Hundreds of Islamist rioters went on the rampage, attacking bars and shops that sell alcohol. Muslim Brotherhood sets up a party in Libya. 10,000 Salafis took to the streets of the capital, Tunis, to express their support for the proposal that the country's legislation should be based on Islamic law. Moderate Islamist Ennahda Party has refused to enshrine Islamic law in the new constitution.

• Libya: A number of victorious groups in Libya's civil war wish to set up a new government based on the strict interpretation of Sharia law. British war graves desecrated by Islamic extremists.

• Yemen: President Ali Abdullah Saleh’s retirement has resulted in a dramatic upgrade in al-Qaeda’s terrorist capabilities

I do not view the Muslim Brotherhood, who are Islamic extremists, being poised to win the Egyptian elections a positive outcome of the Arab Spring.

They are Wahhabi. Almost all Islamic terrorists come from the Wahhabi or Salafi schools of Islam.

FBI Director Robert Mueller and seven other Obama administration intelligence and law enforcement officials have stated that the Muslim Brotherhood support terrorism Link

Its interesting that Mohamed was the receiver of divine inspiration. Mohammed also received inspiration from other sources. Nature is sometime the best teacher. Through Mohammed keen powers of observation, he gave us the law of stoning adulterers. Here is how a group of religious monkeys inspired Mohammed; their actions became the focal point of the pillars of Islam. This also gave way to that silly saying,” monkey see, monkey do”

Mohammad was an animist. Animism was adopted into Islam:
Female monkey commits fornication so other monkeys stone her:
During the pre-lslamic period of ignorance I saw a she-monkey surrounded by a number of monkeys. They were all stoning it, because it had committed illegal sexual intercourse. I too, stoned it along with them. Bukhari V5 B58 N188

Adultery, Sahih Muslim, Book 017, Number 4191:

'Ubada b. as-Samit reported: Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying: Receive (teaching) from me, receive (teaching) from me. Allah has ordained a way for those (women). When an unmarried male commits adultery with an unmarried female (they should receive) one hundred lashes and banishment for one year. And in case of married male committing adultery with a married female, they shall receive one hundred lashes and be stoned to death.

Book 017, Number 4201:

Ibn Abbas reported that Allah's Apostle (may peace be upon him) said to Ma'iz b. Malik: Is it true what has reached me about you? He said: What has reached you about me? He said: It has reached me that you have committed (adultery) with the slave-girl of so and so? He said: Yes. He (the narrator) said: He testified four times. He (the Holy Prophet) then made pronouncement about him and he was stoned (to death).

Ø Stoning to death the female monkey?

Narrated by ‘Amru bin Maimun: "During the pre-Islamic period of ignorance I (Muhammad) saw a female monkey surrounded by a number of monkeys. They were all stoning it, because it had committed illegal sexual intercourse. I (Muhammad) too, stoned it along with them."

The truth is even if you wanted to say 9/11 was a false flag it doesn't remove the fact that America is now fighting extremist Islam in Afghanistan.


How odd.
Somehow Islam is not fighting extremist Christians in America.
Or else Afghanistan counts as the fifty-second state of the US?
