Oh, this is going to be fun!
I doubt it. To the people you are hoping to reach the only evil people are white people and Jews.
No they'll just dig up Clinton and get him to go on TV to apologize to Zawahiri.
"I feel baaaaadddd." <<< bites lower lip >>>
I've got news for this writer. Every race has participated in slavery so what is his point? Another news flash... blacks are racist.
Liberal and Black Americans may finally join the war on Islamists.
Why? That is a joke, right? You realize there is no bigger enemy then the evil white man?
Imagine that the white Christians and Jews are the only defenders of blacks from Arab racism!!!!!!
...well gee, it’s existed FOREVER - especially during the last EIGHT YEARS. But only now, suddenly is it worth talking about.
And didn’t libs call Michael Steele, Condi Rice and Colin Powell “house negroes”? If it was so bad that al Queda did it, why do libs get a pass?
how many times does this have to be said before people finally get it?
SLAVERY HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ARABS!
CHRISTIAN Arabs have nothing to do with Slavery being slaves themselves of Muslims..this is Muslim thing of whatever ethnicity - and Klinghoffer needs to get it right.
Conservatives said "Buy American." The UAW took conservatives' money and used it to buy the presidency for a socialist. No, thanks. Buy American-made Hondas and Toyotas.
During a tour of duty in Jordan in the mid-1970’s I came across a black man who had been captured somewhere in the horn of Africa and sold into slavery in Saudi Arabia. He had escaped and made his way to Jordan. He vowed he would never return to Saudi Arabia, where he would likely be put to death, or to his homeland, where he could be re-enslaved.
In Muslim Arab countries before the abolition of slavery, Christian Arabs (and Jews) also could own slaves. They just couldn't own Muslim slaves.
BTW, slavery in Muslim countries was never race-based. Muslims have always been equal-opportunity enslavers. For centuries the Ottomans raided eastern Europe and the Barbary pirates raided European shipping and Mediterranean coastlines. Millions of "white" slaves were obtained in this way, to go with the millions of black slaves imported across the Sahara and up the East African coast.
Wait until people find out that while Obama does not descend from slaves, He DOES descend from slave traders......on his FATHER’s side.
For centuries the Ottomans raided eastern Europe and the Barbary pirates raided European shipping and Mediterranean coastlines...
I know—the Turks enslaved my ancestors. ANd when they could not any moe they genocided them.
As for your comment about abolition of slavery in Muslim countries - SLAVERY IS ALIVE IN WELL IN MUSLIM COUNTRIES TODAY!
But, you see, dissing Obama is different. No one is permitted to touch the Democratic ONE and in this case, I am grateful, from the bitter, comes sweet. Liberal and Black Americans may finally join the war on Islamists.
Does anyone else's blood pressure go up reading about the MSM?
Oh boy, that would be interesting.
It exists in some, not all. It is generally technically illegal even where it exists.
Unless we're talking informal slavery, as of female and child "sex workers," and if we're going to count them we have lots of slaves in this country.
But its existence here is a result of this nation's increasing secularization.
OTOH in Islam slavery is acceptable because it is based on their code. It is acceptable and even an honored tradition as it has always been practiced on those who are not muslim.
