    Seriously, BB.

    What is your obsession with attacking Israel and defending Muslims? So here's all I'm going to say.

    F*ck Israel.
    F*ck Islam.

    Both are equally full of sh*te.

    Agree with these points especially.

    How this is not considered to be a valid thread for A+A is confusing.
    I can't speak for anyone else but BB got my proverbial goat up by using "Non-Muslims" as a blanket term for ... everyone who isn't a Muslim and all standing accused of hypocrisy over free speech.

    My problem with that is that (as for me) I couldn't be more of a non-Muslim but I do not agree with the ban on the anti-Israel ads, or of European laws making it illegal to deny the holocaust etc.

    So I reject "The Hypocrisy of Non-Muslims" as a scurrilous, unfounded accusation levelled at 5/6ths of the worlds population, that has no basis in fact.

    The difference between me as an agnostic and many Muslims is that if someone post a badly edited, unwatchable, low budget video calling agnostics emissaries of satan or something, I'm not going to demand "blasphemy" laws at the U.N. for my "hurt feelings" and I'm pretty sure no-one is going to want to murder that person because of the "offence."

    But for me to even learn of such a video would pronbably require me to be in contact with a religious authority such as an Imam, and that person would have to be looking for an excuse to go ****-stirring, which is how a lot of these things start. Again, not an issue with agnosticism, but an issue perhaps solely for the so-called "Religion of peace."

    She was guilty of identity fraud.

    Even ignoring the circumstances surrounding this fraud, so what?
    Okay, but in my examples they are from the same states or the same publications.

    Ok. And? So some magazine is less anti-jewish than they are anti-islam.

    Some states in the US allow pro israel stuff but not pro jihad. Etc.

    What's your point?

    What do you mean "so what"? I said she was a proven liar - you asked why - I told you - and now you ask me "so what"?

    This has gone way over your head. It's not a case of whether a magazine is "anti-Jewish" or "anti-Islam". It's that freedom of speech should be enforced equally and I have given pertinent examples where it is not.

    Yes, those 13th century terms really have stood the test of time, haven't they.

    Thanks for digging up a two year old thread to share that.

    The same Marco Polo who was subservient to Genghis Khan's family and an servant of the Mongol empire.
