Idiot........
This guy is really intelligent! /sarasm
British humor !
So according to Ash, it's God's fault.
He is singing a different tune these days. I remember his pieces when the french tried to ban the hijab. He was defending muslims right to wear it. Now he has a different vision. About time.
When this guy looks in the mirror, he sees a total inability to make moral distinctions.
There isn't anywhere in the world where Muslims have been in power for any significant amount of time where they haven't turned the country they control into a living (dying) hell hole. In addition, in those countries no other belief system can coincide with them without being terrorized to the point of extinction.
The one common denominator throughout is Islam.
Monte Python is back!?
In my mirror I see someone who understands that you cannot have a "religion of peace" that was founded by a -- shall we say -- less than peaceful "prophet".
In order: 2,3,4,6,5,1
That would explain all the Christian suicide bombers, beheadings of non-Christians and Christians burning or destroying anything non-Chrisitian. What a "useful idiot."
Seems most people are missing the point of this article. It's supposed to be a kind of test ; which of the following best describes your feelings, etc.
Personally, I don't think it's really worth the time to decide which of Mr Ash's ideas best fits mine.
I pointed to Mecca last night when I voided my bowels.
The fundamental problem is Islam and people like this author who try to intellectualize it's faults. Michael Graham was right, Islam is a terrorist organization, pure and simple. They hate us because of who we are. That cannot be changed. Make no mistake, this is not isolated extremism, this is a culture war.
What 'We'. Speak for yourself.
He must really be referring to the fact that it is the antithetical opposite and Alice-through-the-Looking-Glass cult of Religions leading to a degenerate and backward societies.
I think you're right, but it's a war between one culture that can't handle the free flow of information, that keeps one-half of its population (and their intellectual and creative capacity) locked out of sight in second-class status, that utilizes state-enforced mass ignorance to keep control over its populations. There was a report one or two years ago in which it was stated that the sum total of all books translated into Arabic by all the Muslim nations combined is less than the number of books translated by Spain into Spanish.
A war in which one side is kept weak, forever, by the same delusions that prompted it to start the war. The end-game of a failed culture.
The real statement is that the vast majority of Muslims are willing to tolerate terrorism.
