    Well, it is not "islamophile" not to constantly rag on a group of people, even though there is a sizable portion of that population who are civil and respectable, just like everyone else non-Muslim.

    And there especially is no need to painfully point that out every time when things aren't 100% ok

    It just seems lost on a few people.

    The backroom has always been a terrible cesspool of backwardness, and i don't need to point out how insidious some posters are about Islam/Muslims, this isn't about religion, or ethnicity, its a whole slew of complications (and a very long story to boot) but simply put, its primarily government corruption and general unrest in the population. This isn't in a long line of historical rivalry or other BS, its a recent developement.

    That wasn't aimed at you, i just read the backroom and the amount of "expert" opinions and poorly cherrypicked arguments pretty much made my blood boil at this complete ignorance on the subject matter, it bears repeating since some people do actually live on mars you see.

    Thank you for the wisdom, the logic, and all the sources. :)

    Honestly, I'd like to be introduced to this respectable population. For what I've seen in France, they make up what? 10% of the muslim population...

    Compared to the ethnic French population, where the respectable part is like 5% population, I'd say that's a good statistic....

    Just thought I'd throw this out there...

    Egyptian Muslims act as human shields for Coptic mass
    At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.

    They look like nice respectful Muslim members of the community. Any issues against those, Meneldil?
