I just have a real problem with condemning a whole group of people because of the actions of some of those people; whether it's Muslims condemning all westerners or westerners condemning all Muslims, it's all the same thing and leads to the same bloody end.

I do too Q. I know sometimes people here assume I am in support of Muslims but I am not, I am in support of human beings and finding common ground and improving relations and try to get beyond this us vs them mind set. I do understand why that mind set exists and I'm not saying it has no basis in reality at all, but that when it mushrooms into a grouping of people into a bad category and violence is perpetrated based upon that it has gone too far and then "us" is playing the same game as "them". I believe if we focus on and accentuate the positive that there is it will nurture it and then peace and tolerance will eventually become the predominant mind set.

If the goal is to anger and incite radical militant Muslims to violent behavior then provoking them works, but all that does is perpetuate more violence, more distrust and more polarization between westerners and mid-easterners. Is that our goal, to perpetuate the violence? It is not my goal. I don't believe it is the goal of the governments involved in trying to contain and minimize the violence either. You (we) may not agree with their views and tactics but efforts towards peace should always be welcomed.

And I agree with you JG about the rest of the Muslim world needing to be more outspoken. It is happening more now as suppressive/oppressive regimes are starting to crumble. My hope and prayers are that they will succeed in embarking on their democratic endeavors. I think there's a good chance for improvement.

That's what I'm saying the people and the governments in the middle east won't stand up against the radicals. The people I can almost understand not standing up to them because their governments won't protect them but if there really is a majority of people opposed to the radicals and they all rose up against them then the radicals would cease to exist sooner or later. Is that not what happen when Americans rose up against Britain in the revolutionary war? If it is important enough for the Islamic people to be seen as non radical then they can take over their countries from the radicals.

I think there are probably far more decent, peaceful people in those countries than we realize, regular folks who have a live and let live attitude but, with good reason, are in fear for their lives if they should speak up. Hopefully the tide is beginning to turn in their favor and they'll be saying more and more, "I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take this shit anymore from the violent, self serving punk asses who want to run my life." This is where Blah's timeline comes into play for me - the western world had a head start in getting past the bulk of the violence and the middle east is playing catch up. They once had a flourishing, intelligent society, and could once again. Or they could just continue to kill each other off through sheer stupidity.

You are way behind on playing catch up with history and facts Kim, and have the imaginary balls to accuse me of wearing rose colored glasses while you are wearing blinders.

Women were granted the right to vote on a universal and equal basis in Lebanon in 1952, Syria (to vote) in 1949 (Restrictions or conditions lifted) in 1953, Egypt in 1956, Tunisia in 1959, Mauritania in 1961, Algeria in 1962, Morocco in 1963, Libya and Sudan in 1964, Yemen (Partly) in 1967 (full right) in 1970, Bahrain in 1973, Jordan in 1974, Iraq (Full right) 1980 Oman (Partly) in 1994 and (Fully granted) 2003, and Kuwait in 2005. In 2011, Saudi Arabia announced that it would give women the right to vote in future elections.

In some of the wealthier Arab countries such as UAE, the number of women business owners is growing rapidly and adding to the economic development of the country. Many of these women work with family businesses and are encouraged to work and study outside of the home. Arab women are estimated to have $40 billion of personal wealth at their disposal, with Qatari families being among the richest in the world.

Since Islam encouraged equality between the sexes, Islam has also encouraged equality in education. In all Arab countries, girls, just like boys, usually get their full education in highschool and even move onto getting a Graduate diploma, and this has been going on for a long time after the 1960s.

Benazir Bhutto was a Pakistani politician who served as the 11th Prime Minister of Pakistan in two non-consecutive terms from 1988 until 1990, and 1993 until 1996.

Of course Muslim cleric rule is a factor and it's part of the problem, I never said it wasn't. But it is certainly not the only factor.

Kim said to show him one ME country where women's rights have advanced and I showed him 18. Admittedly he did not specifically challenge me for facts on women's rights but that is a major component of the discussion. As far as movements in ME nations moving toward democracy (the other major part of the discussion) is a matter of current events which cannot be disputed. The people in many so called Arab nations are currently engaging in the overthrow of repressive regimes and demanding democratic processes in their governments. This is fact. Arab Spring isn't over people. It's just beginning.

Besides that, the facts I presented were not any Sunni based stats but actual historical facts that even you can't dispute, Fossil.

The people in ME nations need ongoing education and support to realize they do have power to choose and affect change in their governments and their lives. The people in the West need to realize that they sometimes are needing our help. Our ideals of democracy and liberty and justice are starting to catch on and I am hopeful that those people can catch up but it doesn't help for us to sit on our asses and say shit like fuck them, let them kill each other off. That is NOT what American values are about.

The religion of Islam also does not recognize women as even equals to men and until that changes there will never be any hope for any type of real democracy in the ME.

Iraq had as much to do with creating more hatred of the west as it did with instilling the idea of removing tyrants, probably more.

"As usual blah you've gone off on a number of tangents while never even addressing what I said. Let's try this again and I'll spell it out all nice and plain so maybe you can get it this time."

Bullshit Kim. I stated facts pertinent to the discussion. There was no going off on tangents, it was all on topic, and your "as usual" accusation is baseless. If anything I am one of the few people here who actually attempts to stay on topic.

"Name ONE country in the ME where there's a democratic revolution that's ongoing as you stated was the case and I called bullshit on."

Read the news.

"Every "Arab Spring" event that's taken place has indeed included large segments of people wanting democratic changes, yet every such movement has also been subverted by hardline Muslims instead. leading eventually to more empowerment of the Islamic concepts of Sharia governance and nothing truly resembling a republic democracy as you claim to have occurred."

I never made that claim in the first place. I did not claim that any truly democratic government is in place yet over there, I said there are people fighting for that and it is ongoing. That is all I said.

You have no proof of your statement and you couldn't, since the processes are still ongoing.

You equate any Muslim related/associated governance with Sharia extremism and that is not accurate and could not be since we do not yet know how things will unfold. You see the words "Muslim Brotherhood" in the case of Egypt for example and automatically assume it's evil because it is "Muslim" without taking into account what their new democratically elected president is actually doing and saying.

"The religion of Islam also does not recognize women as even equals to men and until that changes there will never be any hope for any type of real democracy in the ME.

The cultures and many of the countries in the ME are hundreds if not thousands of years older than our own and there is still not even one that recognizes all people as equal."

In your mind anything Muslim equals Sharia law and inequality. You know next to nothing, if anything at all, about Islam, and it is evident in your baseless bigotry. Islam in the Koran is no more patriarchal than Judaism or Christianity is in the Bible. You talk about things you have no knowledge of as though you are an expert. I admit I am no expert but I have researched things and do have some knowledge about the things I say.

Again you have no historical timeline reference. Islamic cultures are NOT thousands of years old and very much younger than Christianity and Judaism, and NONE of them in practice recognize that all people are equal either. Prior to the emergence of these religions we shared many things in common culturally. If you are referring to American culture that is a laugh. America is a mush-mash of cultures.

"Like I said before, Muslims do not want democracy"

Well that is certainly quite the opposite of what many Muslims are saying and fighting for. I think we will just have to wait and see what happens.

I support their efforts toward equality and democratic rule. I think you have blinders on. You refuse to see reason and facts. I don't support Muslim bigotry anymore than I support American bigotry.

Recently Libya and Egypt, and other nations that already have democratic governments. They may not be the greatest but neither is ours and they have the extra handicap of having all that tribal bullshit and party factions and religious wackos to deal with. Our country already dealt with those problems pretty effectively; we outlawed religious government, killed the fucking tribes off or shoved them out of the way, and we overpower all the little political parties with sheer dollar amounts. We are ahead of the game and they've got to catch up.

"Muslims don't want democracy." Boy that statement just reeks of equality, huh? You're a hypocrite. You are a bigot. You lump all ME people into Muslims and you lump all Muslims into being evil murderous bastards.

If anyone is a pawn in the radical militant Jihad kill everyone else game it's people like you who play into their hatred game and promote more hatred which they actually WANT. They want more polarization, it is their validation to kill those different from them. They want more justification for more terrorism. Wake up and stop feeding the hatred. Don't give them the justification of hatred they want by hating them.

No, not at all, but Egypt's new President vows to help create a sectarian government and their constitutional court does also. It's gonna be a tough fight but they are starting. If the Muslim Brotherhood party was not included in elections then it would not have been a fair and representative vote, which is what forced the constitutional court to allow it. They are going to continue to stumble over the religious affiliations for some time but so did the American colonies, remember? Give them time. There's always a chance.

And no, I said party factions, not crazy factions.

During WWII did we not include all Germans or all Japanese in our hatred and distrust? If it is done when the enemy wears a uniform then it should be done even more when the enemy does not wear a uniform. We do not know which Muslim is a radical until they do something to show it because radicalism is not clearly visible.

Innocent people should not be punished for the crimes of others. I understand why that happened but it doesn't make it right and it wasn't. We don't have to repeat the mistakes of the past and we should find ways of avoiding them.

There is a difference between hating an enemy and fighting an enemy. Fighting out of conviction to what is right and retribution for wrongs done by an enemy does not require hatred and the more clear minded we are about it the more effective our fight is. Hatred clouds the mind and makes people do stupid things. Although it is understandable to hate it is still ultimately a mistake. In the case of fighting terrorism it becomes even more important. Hate is very closely tied to fear. Remember what GW Bush told us, do not let them instill terror in us, that is what they want.

I don't believe this stuff because it helps me sleep better at night, Kim. I believe it because it rings true in my mind and I look into things and find as close to the truth as we are able to. I don't just blindly go off on some bandwagon. Things are not cut and dry in the world, not black and white. Life is not that simple. Bigotry, hatred and prejudice are the easy ways to be. Getting past that crap requires thinking and re-evaluating and some people are just too lazy to be bothered with any of that.

if radical Islam does not rethink, reconsider, or marginalize whatsoever, why should we, you, or any one else? there is no making friends with them, there is no appeasing them to their expectations, and there damn sure is no making them change. thinking good thoughts for their salvation or whatever other mindless bullshit you are expecting of them plays right into their wheel house.....sucker

I agree that the hard line radical assholes will not change but I do not agree that just because they are assholes that justifies me being an asshole in return. We don't have to stoop down to their level. I am not talking about trying to change them at all. I am not praying for their salvation. I am not talking about forgiving them. I am talking about the OTHER people who are deserving of hope and help. I am talking about not lumping all the people in the mid-east into one group. I think I have made that pretty clear time and again but some of you seem to ignore that. Maybe you don't ignore it but what you say here sure makes it appear so to me.

I don't even expect you to agree with me, just to listen and consider what I have to say without summarily dismissing it. I believe progress in the world is possible but not if we keep thinking the same old shit that doesn't work. If we give up on everyone over there and just hate em all that does no good at all.

Honestly blah I have no idea where you come off with these constant mentions of hating anyone/group/nationality/religious following. I don't hate any of these. The words "I hate _ _ _ _" quite simply don't roll off either my tongue nor get hammered out my keeboard because such phrases are not representative of my thoughts, much less my own personally held ideologies.

If ya wanna lean towards distrust and disbelief in what some of these factions do versus what they claim to do then we can agree I am indeed distrustful and disbelieving, but neither of those concepts can be taken to the extremes of hatred.

BTW, I am equally distrustful of ALL religions as in my view they all lead/cajole/manipulate the masses for their own agendas and purposes, none of which lead to the betterment and progression of humankind as a whole as they are all divisive in this way.

Any time one religion holds themselves above others, we all lose as a race of peoples and this has no bearing on what skin tone the participants wear externally because under the outer layers, we're really all just humans.

Spending untold hours studying news stories from a multitude of sources, reading blogs from various differing groups and interacting with individuals to help get an even more personal insight from others experiences is what I have used to then help create the view and opinions I personally hold forth.

I was taught at a very young age to question any and all things, to never blindly believe or follow anything, nor anyone without 1st thoroughly inspecting the "facts" others tried to represent and then running all such information through a filter to ascertain if it was being agendized or otherwise manipulated in hopes of gaining some sort of personal ground/acceptance, financial benefit or from a perceived acquisition of power through agreement by others regarding these supposed "truths" they espoused.

If this seems like a lazy way to formulate a world view then I am unsure what would be required of me to pass your test on such matters, though honestly I couldn't give 2 shits if I do or not.

I'm not on this planet to make anyone but myself happy as I know in reality I am the only one I CAN make happy since personal happiness is an issue of personal responsibility, not one I can create for others winking

We will just have to see how that works out. I won't be completely shocked if it comes about much like you describe but I do not assume it will and I believe there is a chance for change there.

Kim, I get the hatred thing from the words you say and how you say them. Your attitude that comes across indicates bigotry to me and to me bigotry and hatred are the same thing. I accept your explanation of your views and will keep that in mind.

I obviously do not agree with all of your views, I am a different person with different experiences. While I do not espouse any religion or sect of one I do see value in core teachings and concepts of many of them. I agree that in practice official religions have done and do as you have said. However on the individual level I know this is definitely not always the case. I know this by personal experience with the people and by learning from their personal experiences. I also know a great deal about many religions due to personal involvement with them. I am not an expert but I am experienced enough to know that many ideas and assumptions about religions that inexperienced people have about them are not valid and based on superficial and flawed information.

Islam is probably my least favorite religion if I were to classify religions into favorites. However that does not prevent me from believing the peaceful performance of their type of worship is a right they are entitled to. When someone in the name of Islam crosses the line they have sacrificed their right to freedom of religion in the same way that any criminal sacrifices certain of their rights as a direct result of their crime. Unfortunately the killers in the name of Islam get all the attention and that's the info many people base their attitude about Islam on and that is not really how the majority of Muslims are. It is the lumping them all together and thinking and saying they are all evil because they are Muslim that I find fault with. Too many Americans are content to do just that and it unfortunately influences popular opinion. This in turn causes more polarization and misunderstanding and makes efforts towards solutions much harder.

I understand that you feel you are only here to please yourself and that is your right to believe that way. I do not believe that about myself. At least not in the same way as you appear to. I believe the way to make myself happy in part involves minimizing things I do that make other people unhappy. The more unhappy people there are the more I run into them and they make ME unhappy. I call it being wisely selfish. It's just the golden rule is all and it works.

I am not playing victim here. It is obvious that you don't comprehend some of what I say and assume I am playing into the sucker role based on your mis-comprehensions. Being hopeful that people can and do change is not foolish either. Like I said, we will have to wait and see what happens. We will see how mature Mursi is in regards to being able to separate religion and state in his government. I don't necessarily believe that he will but I have HOPE that he will. That would indicate that some people over there are trying to catch up. We'll see how it goes. If that makes me a sucker in your mind then that is your problem, not mine.

Here's a cuppla concepts that might be a bit over your head but I'll lay 'em out there anyway blah:

1. Whatever perception of anything one chooses to view anything with resides in the viewer/interpreter and not the speaker.No matter what I say I have no responsibility in how you choose to perceive or interpret it, that's all on you, not me.

2. Believing you have any part in anyones happiness but your own is a fallacy of the highest order. Your own happiness and mental state is the only thing you truly have the power to effect any amount of change to. Believing otherwise is to believe one has more personal power than is plausible.

The only hinging tenet of the above 2 statements is if one is speaking truth and not with an intention of doing harm intentionally to another with thier words. If your intention is to do such harm then all bets are off (*binladen*)

I have tried for years to always attempt to make my own thoughts as transparent as possible to negate any need for interpretation after the fact, so if you interpret them as different from how they are written please understand you must also accept all responsibility for any such interpretations drinking smiley

I am more intelligent and attentive than you think I am. Doesn't matter. None of that is not over my head at all. I understand mental projection and perception very well, thank you.

I respectfully differ on #2 in this regard; One can indeed influence the level of another's happiness by purposefully not causing them unhappiness (not increasing their unhappiness) and by doing things that do make them happy. In turn the happier person is more likely to treat me nicely, which makes me happier. People do have what influence over each others emotions they allow between themselves. This a relationship.

You final statement summarizes and in this I agree, however I must offer my well intentioned criticism that your choices of words and vernacular and style are not always as clear and concise as you might imagine.

In the case of the hardline radicals and the middle east, the radicals and terrorists do not wear uniforms or sighs distinguishing themselves from peaceful moderates so therefor they all look alike until some start killing us. Not having this distinguishing feature can only make us lump them all in one category and waiting until some start killing is just plain stupid. Not having a clear cut enemy in their culture puts all on the line and seems pretty understandable to me. I cannot make friends with someone if I think he may shove a knife in my back once it's turned.

It's not an excuse, I just don't trust them. There easy belief in their religion combined with very little freedom in their countries seems to make them easy to subvert to radicals and easy targets for brain washing. The same could be said for any religion but it makes it harder (not impossible just harder) to subvert people who live in a free country. When religion controls countries that is when they have problems as well. Also complacency is when people get killed. It's like when you ride a motorcycle and you get too used to it, you get complacent and careless then you have a wreck. We should never become complacent and relax our security.

BTW, Skidmore, Gandhi was quoting Sakyamuni Buddha and it is taken out of context. Yes we "become" what we habitually think and the point Buddha was making is if we habitually think wrong then our illusion of self becomes even more wrong as a result. The concept of a "self" is wrong anyway, it just compounds the problem, which is that we believe in a "self" to be reality in the first place.
