Why so many people say "Muslims are terrorists" Should we say that?

[Naida_BR]

Why so many people say "Muslims are terrorists"  Should we say that?

I think there is always a scapegoat in the community.

Who is the most violent perpetrator of the massacre? Who?

I Think "" Hitler "!!! He persecuted 6 million Jews. With that we blame the Christians for that ?, Hitler, He's Christian ,so because he persecutes the Jews, it does not mean all Christians are like that.

Then , How about Muslims? are they all terrorists? Are there organizations that want to create a " Muslims Phobia" ?
It is inappropriate for us fellow humans to hate and kill each other.

what do you think?  

Maybe this statement relies to the fact that there is an Islamic state, DAESH, which they kill people in the name of their God.
This makes people insert a whole religion and the people who believe in this religion.
It is not correct to say that because Muslims doesn't kill people, Islamic fighters do.

[BADecker]

Freedom of speech does not mean one can play with the sentiments of others or to pass remarks which can hurt there. There are around 2 billion Muslims living in this world and world is blaming 2 billion people because of few extremists and oppressors. Around 70 to 80 million people died in world war 2 just because of single person "Hitler" so should we blame Christianity or Germany for this, obviously no because you can not generalize whole population.

Yes that is EXACTLY what freedom of speech means, and this is exactly why Islam is not compatible with Western values or freedom in general. Islam is a globalist totalitarian supremacist political system under the guise of a religion. Even if 10% of Muslims are extremists, that is still 200 million radical Islamists committing acts of terror and violence. That number is unrealistically low as evidenced by these stats as well as many others. Shariah law is not compatible with freedom, period.

As far as WW2, last I checked this was not a religious war, and Hitler and the Nazis were not particularly fond of Christians either. He did however get along quite well with Islam. Islam needs to clean its own house, because the West is waking up to the taqiyya and if you refuse to clean your own house we will do it for you on our terms not yours.

History shows how tolerant Christianity is, until one day they are oppressed too much, then they will spend every waking moment dedicated to obliterating their enemies. No one wants that. Stop pretending Islam does not have a problem, because the world knows it does, and either the real true Muslims can work to repair it or wait until the world starts striking back without mercy. If the only thing Islam respects is strength then their cups will overflow with it until they are washed away in a torrent of blood. The times for making excuses for Islam has passed. The time for reformation is now. I want people to have freedom of religion and to worship God how they choose, I will not however stand silent while this vile violent supremacist ideology is given the protective cloak of religion to protect it from criticism. Islam itself deserves criticism.

Arguably the Japanese side of WWII may be considered a religious war. This is often overlooked and the concepts are somewhat confusing.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/shinto/history/emperor_1.shtml

Divinity of the Emperor

Many cultures have attributed divinity or significant spiritual gifts to their rulers. The rulers of ancient Egypt and Rome were treated as gods, and medieval kings (including England's Henry VI) were regarded as having the ability to cure diseases with the royal touch.

The Japanese concept of the divinity of the Emperor is often misunderstood by Westerners. Neither the Emperor nor most of his people ever thought that the Emperor was a God in the sense of being a supernatural supreme being.

From the 6th century onwards it was accepted that the Emperor was descended from the kami (in this context gods), was in contact with them, and often inspired by them.

This didn't make him a god himself, but rather imposed on him the obligation of carrying out certain rituals and devotions in order to ensure that the kami looked after Japan properly and ensured its prosperity.

Yes, good.

When you get the feel for the reason why the people imposed kami on the emperor, it was so that they had contact with the gods in a form that they could deal with, so they could get god-miracles from the emperor. A wise emperor, just to remain alive, had to outsmart the people.

In what way did the emperor have to outsmart the people? Since the people were expecting miracles from the gods through the emperor, he had to be able to do these miracles, or possibly die at their hands in a revolt. But nobody can really do miracles. So, he had to be shrewd with the people to make them think that the miracles were being done, or to become a magician in front of the people (all the hocus-pocus ceremony), or to mount an army big enough to put down any rebellion (without the people realizing that the army was to be used against them if necessary), or to trick the people into being politically against each other so that the focus was off the emperor, or any combination of these things.

And this is exactly what many governments do to their people all the time - including the USA government to its people. But the Islam government is one of the biggest in these areas. It's the way that it holds the people as an army to use against the world or against themselves, when necessary.

Japanese government is traditionally similar to the Chinese government in many basic ways. Japan came from China ages ago. So, they are simply an offshoot of what China has done for ages. And look at the size of China.

Compare China's size with Islam's size. It all has to do with treachery built into the government by the people asking for emperors who are gods. In the case of Islam, it is simply the fact of making their government to be a religion, as well as a government, so that they don't have to appoint an emporer. This makes Islam able to be more straight forward in their conquest... no direct emperor to piddle with.

Islam >>> a government religion of war and conquest, right in its own writings - http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/quran/023-violence.htm.

Perhaps half of the WW2 deaths were due to Japanese aggression, which bears numerous similarities to Islamic extremism.

Certainly you can and should blame the whole population, and Germany, because it was the country as a whole that went to war.  It was Germany that we fought, not Hitler. It was Japan and it's people that fought in other lands to enslave them. Not the Emperor.

Duhh...

Now, does Islam seek to establish a world wide caliphate, or does it not?

how could you say that. Who invaded Afghanistan, Iraq. How can you justify barbarism in Myanmar where Muslims were killed because of their religion. Who invaded Palestine?

there are more than 50 Muslims states in the world and have enough land to live we do not want to invade any other country to caliphate. No Muslims country runs by a caliphate so how can you accuse Muslims of that

[BADecker]

^^^ Then you are not Muslim, no matter how much you say you are. Why not? Because the Koran and Hadiths tell you to do otherwise... http://www.thereligionofpeace.com/quran/023-violence.htm.

So, which of you has enough guts to rewrite the Koran without the directives to go out and kill? Will you be able to write it without being killed at the hands of your fellow Muslims? By the time you have success in this, the rest of the Muslims will all have converted to peaceful Christianity.

Takiyya...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worldwide_caliphate

Over time, various historians and scholars have had differing ideas about the origins of this concept. One viewpoint is expressed in the 2007 book Islamic Imperialism: A History, in which the author Efraim Karsh explains his belief of the concept's origin:[11]

    As a universal religion, Islam envisages a global political order in which all humankind will live under Muslim rule as either believers or subject communities. In order to achieve this goal it is incumbent on all free, male, adult Muslims to carry out an uncompromising struggle "in the path of Allah", or jihad. This in turn makes those parts of the world that have not yet been conquered by the House of Islam an abode of permanent conflict (Dar al-Harb, the "house of war") which will only end with Islam's eventual triumph.

I don't hate all Muslims, but I tell you what I sure as fuck don't trust them to do the right thing either. As they say here in the USA "talk is cheap". You can talk about reformation within Islam all day, but I see the results of the tumor growing within Islam every day in the form of new bodies. As I said before, it is like a law of physics. It is irrelevant how many Muslims are involved because eventually no one is going to care because the extremists are too much of a threat. The West tried tolerance, but this tolerance was only exploited. A counter reaction is inevitable because Islam refuses to control its own house. This is not a threat but an observation of bodies in motion like a boulder rolling down a mountain. Eventually it will hit the bottom, and I assure you Islam is not going to like what it finds in that valley as suddenly the entire Western world says "fuck tolerance" in unison.

"The West" is not protected from criticism. "The West" does not wag their finger at you telling you that you are Westophobic when you criticize its flaws. "The West" doesn't throw people off of roof tops for being gay, or stone women for being unfaithful. "The West" does not seek to kill people who abandon its Western values. "The West" is not a religion. I assume you are Arab based on your name, excuse me if I am wrong there, but as an Arab you have some cantaloupe sized balls talking to a Westernerer about exploiting Africans. Do you have any knowledge of the ancient (and modern) slave trade run by Islam out of Africa? Every crime you point at the West for Islam has 3 more skeletons in its own closet it is trying to hide. Perhaps instead of pointing your finger out and making excuses you should start looking inward, because the excuses and "whataboutisms" aren't enough any more.

Freedom of speech does not mean one can play with the sentiments of others or to pass remarks which can hurt there. There are around 2 billion Muslims living in this world and world is blaming 2 billion people because of few extremists and oppressors. Around 70 to 80 million people died in world war 2 just because of single person "Hitler" so should we blame Christianity or Germany for this, obviously no because you can not generalize whole population.

Freedom of Speech means exactly that. Freedom of Speech as a political restraint means that government may pass no law restricting the free expression of speech.

You can be an atheist who says that there is no god. That the concept god is sheer foolishness.
One can be an apostate and reject the religion of ones parents.
One can be a fool and spout nonsense - such as the earth is flat.

Freedom of Speech as a philosophical position means that one does not attempt to shut down the speech of those one disagrees with. That would be the hecklers veto or pushing to deplatform people.

So yes "Freedom of speech does not mean one can play with the sentiments of others or to pass remarks which can hurt there."

That's exactly what it means.
