    Will ya stop. You are just being disrespectful now to the hundreds of women sentenced to decades each in Iran for not wearing scarves. Not to mention ones elsewhere being stoned.

    I love it when this kind of nonsense is being dragged out. I'm not disrespectful to anyone I just pointed out that women are supposed to wear a scarf when meeting Pope. It's surprising that only answer self confessed intelligent woman is able make is the equivalent of starving kids in Africa.

    But religion was a large part of it, and that massacre was most certainly an act where the faith of one led to their targeting by the other.

    Do tell more. It will be interesting to hear your expert opinion on that.

    By the way I grew up in Yugoslavia. I don't remember any Muslim women wearing headscarves (except the same ones the other women of certain age would wear) until after years of being shot at and bombarded. If Muslim women are wearing headscarves there today it is because of more radicalised positions on all sides during and after the war.

    Are we to pretend that the war in the North was religious as well.

    I would happily see all religions disappear from the planet, i think they are all toxic and will happily repeat that anytime you wish, you on the other hand only seem to have issues with one religion. I wonder why that is?

    I would also welcome that. I have an issue with all of the major religions, you won't find a single post where ive given christianity or judaism a good turn. But its about whats active now, im not going to start about how barbaric an ancient religion is, Ireland is completing the decline of catholacism, Islam is the problem now.

    It was a war and the Muslims committed their fair share of atrocities also. They were as bad as the serbs. I'd go as far as to sat if they had the power to cleanse the serbs they would have.

    I have good friends still living in those parts who say that Muslims and Christians lived well together over the centuries, apart from the war, but there has been an influx of Saudi money in the rural parts, new mosques, and a rise of fundamentalism that was not there before.

    Yes after and very late in the war and after Croatians (catholics) and Serbs (orthodox Christians) managed couple of meetings during killing each other and decided how to split Bosnia and attacked Muslims from both sides. That says something about Christian solidarity.

    I've seen you repeat that question a few times "how does it affect you" that's your go to question when someone criticises anything and you dont like it.

    Maybe Muslims didnt affect the thousands of teenage girls in Northern England before they raped them.

    Or the 3 thousand killed by Muslims on 9/11.

    It's a silly question to ask, should we all not care about things unless they affect us directly?

    Is it baiting people on the internet because you feel so insignificant in your life. This thread is interesting study in impotence.

    That you would actually write the above, only moments after writing the below, shows a willful lack of self reflection, you appear to be doing exactly what you are criticizing.

    We really have to do something about disenfranchised not very smart men for the good of society. The loss of their standing in society is making them very destructive and that will affect all of us.

    Quite frankly, your snipes about impotence, intellect, and impoverishment, all reek of projection. Might I suggest you at least try to debate the topic at hand without these childish taunts and insults.

    This is just pathetic by the way, if you are above the age of ten you should be appalled with yourself;
