noun
a title given to rulers and officials in central Asia, Afghanistan, and certain other Muslim countries.
In the end it’s implausible. The constructs of atheists are shallow and brittle. Spirituality comes knocking on people’s doors and gets let in, and people find it has far more heart. Sometimes it even manages to look like a pretty good parable of Christian belief. (That’s my impression upon looking at the modern anime tale of Pegasusa Fantaju, i.e. Pegasus Fantasy, that even has “Saints” who are on a journey of celestial achievement.)
The Soviet leaderhip was an evil empire, it wasn't just 'US perception'. Ask immigrants who've come to the West after fleeing Soviet oppression. It doesn't mean that all persons living under such dominance were evil or agreed with it.
Too many muslims say "that is not reflection on muslims". Show me the good muslim nations.
True believer Communists in America say that the USSR, Cuba, Vietnam, China, North Korea, et al were not example of REAL Communism. Funny how they supported each of these dictatorships at the time and each of these imperialist Communist nations provided them aid.
Didn’t ‘24’ hero Jack Bauer convert while talking to a Muslim imam on his deathbed?
Sorry, Haroon, it’s Muhammad or cut your head off.
Them’s the choices.
Why muslims can’t do this themselves than beg infidels to do it for them.
Reminds me of the old joke ...
Why are there no muslims on Star Trek?
Because it takes place in the future!
Fictional characters qualify in this person's mind as "anyone in the world?" As if that's not stupid enough, the author lists fictional characters who, with the exception of Picard, aren't even described as being from this planet or solar system.
[nopardons] "IF", a Muslim character was introduced into Start Trek or Star Wars, hardly ANYONE ONE would go to that movie.
The Roddenberry franchise introduced an authentic Moslem to Deep Space 9 in the person of Siddig El-Fadil, an Egyptian actor, who partway through his gig changed his screen name to "Alexander Siddig" but kept his own name for directorial and other credits.
His screen name was "Dr. Juian Bashir", suggesting a secularized Moslem background. In one episode, his character's parents were introduced; they, too were Middle Easterners.
Siddig El-Fadil, in turn, introduced another Moslem to DS9 as a one-episode walkon, that being none other than Crown Prince Abdullah of Jordan, now King Abdullah, patriarch of the Hashemite house and kingdom.
Kevin Costner’s “Robin Hood” featured a muslim good-guy, compatriot/warrior
Remember when dr. Bashir on ds9 demanded the women on the station wear hijabs ...... because i don’t. If he did major kira would have tossed his arse out of the airlock.
Also another funny thing the guy that played bashirs dad is actually jewish!
How could star wars have muslims if it happened long before mad mo mohammed was even born????????
Not to mention in a galaxy far far away....
The writer at the washington post is retarded.....
(A crew of Asians and Caucasians, Vulcans and Muslims )
Race, race, alien race, and alien to anything resembling a peaceful non political religious systam.
Muslim is not a race!
It is not a religious system.... it is an immutable socio political life plan that is tyranny codified as religious doctrine.
Otherwise known as dangerous as helll.
“Many Americans fear Islam and think our faith is incompatible with U.S. values.””
You have a choice. You can be a good Mohammedan wanting to impose your cult of hate on all of us OR accepting the Constitution. Until you accept the Constitution, your faith IS incompatible with U.S. values.
How can you have a Muslim hero, when it’s founder was a murderous thug? In order to become a hero, one would have to renounce Islam which would have you killed, end of the hero wannabe.
A suicide bomber that reincarnates
It’s worth noting that this Muslim writer is requesting this from a Jewish producer/director.
So add that, which speaks for itself, to all the other justifiable rebukes I’ve read here.
Haroon, you are a sniveling enabler!
Would you compare the rationale of your fear to that for those who fear Islamic terrorists?
There is no innocence in your faith. Quit pretending there is.
By giving cover, with this whine, to your terrorist brethren, you encourage more terrorist acts, increasing the level of fear in Americans, thereby increasing the level of your fear.... I call that delicious irony!!!
Besides, aren’t the Klingons Muslims? They have all the identifying characteristics.
... until a member of ISIS or AQ or Boko attacked: "Separate into muslims and others groups."
"No. You will have to kill us all."
"Fine."
Opens fire, killing everyone, Shouts, "Allah u Akabar" with each killing.
It just depends on the level of depravity and insanity a particular muslim has descended into ... who and how many are killed ... it does not matter who dies or how many as long as Islam goes forward.
