Topic: Why do people hate islam? - page 107. (Read 221036 times)

A boy in Afghanistan would always tell us "bad no" where suspected IEDs were at. He would stack rocks within at least 10 ft from the IED. We gave the kid everything in return. Food and candy. Fuck I even gave him my DS. One day, we found him strung up on a tree. The Taliban found out and killed him. I get sort of emotional when I start playing pokemon now a days.

Fuck that's terrible....

One of my best buds got drunk and fell off the barracks. They labelled it an accident. It was actually a suicide over a girl.

I know, not too interesting, but I thought I'd share. Never told anyone. Always felt guilty.

That sucks bro, I've witnessed 2 suicides in my military career. One in a very similar circumstance to that. Alcohol, young men, and breakups are a very bad combination.

My very first patient in Afghanistan was a 10month girl.

The father brought her to our gate asking for help. We checked her out and she is literally missing all of the skin from shoulder blade to waist on her back left side. Burned to the bone. Dad tells terp that she tripped and got cut up by gravel.

Clearly she is burned. I can smell it still today. I can remember the screech she made. The charred skin I had to remove.

And that asshole just sat in the corner. Nothing I can do to right the situation other than do what I can for her.

That single moment definitely set the tempo for the following 9 months.

Why did he burn her?

In Afghanistan its not uncommon for the father of a screaming baby to dip the baby into boiling water to "stop them from crying". saw the same thing during my time there. Father claimed he spilled but it was clear she was dipped.

Why would they think that would make a kid STOP crying?

I was posted with Brits for a tour and the hospital on base was used for locals and absolute emergencies for coalition forces as better treatment was available a short distance away. Talking with the British docs that worked there I ask what they see the most. They said burnt children. I inquired about it and they said they would boil water to heat it up to bathe the kids but wouldnt check the temp before dunking the kids. I walked through that hospital multiple times a day for work. Wont forget the one time I saw one of those kids on a gurney through a door.

Hey! It's a proven fact that people who hate other people enough to murder them, especially through suicide bombings, usually hate themselves more. The real question is, why do Muslims hate Islam?

As long as they respect the Non Agression Principle, I don't care what they do, or in what they believe.

So I take you don't hate Nazism or Fascism, right?

Hate comes from ignorance.
People don't research facts but believes in media reports and propaganda.
I feel people are to much brainwashed in today's society by the media and governments and don't think with their brains anymore.

Well I'm not going to waste my time counting it all

USA - United states of america

Not "us"? Elaborate please

Ok, now count all the terroristic attacks around the world for the last decade. Not us only.

I assume, given the source, that we're leaving government agents out of the equation

Well done. I didn't have figures to back it, but I knew that was wrong.

And they have to listen to what we have to say, as well as we should listen to the moderates among them.  Because we, both those who are Christian and those who are Kafir, know precisely what we are talking about on this subject.

Rick Perry, Texas Governor, talking in London.

 “But to every extremist, it has to be made clear: We will not allow you to exploit our tolerance, so that you can import your intolerance. We will not let you destroy our peace with your violent ideas. If you expect to live among us and yet plan against us to receive the protections and comforts of a free society while showing none of its virtues or graces then you can have our answer now: No, not on our watch! You will live by exactly the standards that the rest of us live by. And if that comes as jarring news then welcome to civilization.”

Amen to that. Many Muslims are quite nice people, most if you avoid the religion theme.
But for big G sake! They have to stop wandering around carrying a book telling them to kill pretty much everyone. Isn't them the problem, is the damn book! And I can't say the Quran and the Hadith aren't interesting in the literary level, they are, just that they are to read as we read Odyssey, Iliad and many other classical pieces. Not to take that thing by the letter! We are no longer at VII Century!

Yeah, you know what a "good Muslim" would say to this, they would say those are bad people, they are not muslims, they are deviant sect.

I agree with you, but don't misrepresent Muslims as supporting ISIS.  Look at this thread, a number have commented on these atrocities and distanced themselves and their beliefs from such things.

If your point is the theoretical ability of a "Muslim" to support the committing of atrocities cherry picking the old books, yeah, that's a problem.
